I've posed this question before. Thanks to those who answered. But I still need help. If it cannot be solved/reduced, at least an alternative. It worries me more when i sweat profusely during my meal. What's is the cause of it?
Help me reduce hyperhidrosis. It makes my life miserable.?
Overview
Sweating is a natural phaenomenon necessary for the regulation of an individual's body-temperature. The secretion of sweat is mediated by a portion of our vegetative nervous system (the Sympathetic Nervous System). In some people (approximately 1% of the population), this system is working at a very high activity level, far higher than needed to keep a constant temperature. This condition is referred to as hyperhidrosis.
Classification and Causes
Causes
* primary = essential = idiopathic (unknown cause)
* secondary (known cause)
Locations
* palmar (hands)
* axillary (armpits)
* plantar (feet)
* facial (face)
* truncal (trunk)
* general
1. Hyperhidrosis as part of an underlying condition (secondary hyperhidrosis)
Some conditions can promote excessive sweating, as a rule involving the whole body:
* Hyperthyroidism or similar endocrine diseases
* Endocrine treatment for prostatic cancer or other types of malignant disease
* Severe psychiatric disorders
* Obesity
* Menopause
2. Hyperhidrosis without known cause (=primary or essential hyperhidrosis)
This is a far more frequent condition than secondary hyperhidrosis and appears, generally, localized in one or several locations of the body (most often hands, feet, armpits or a combination of them). It usually starts during childhood or adolescence and persists all life. Nervousness and anxiety can elicit or aggravate sweating, but psychological/psichiatric disturbances are only rarely the cause of the disorder.
Reply:hey where are you from? try visiting your dermatologist, there is a machine that will help reduce excessive sweating, I've seen it on TV, you might wanna try it for yourself
Reply:My daughter suffers from it and there is a prescription for it..You only have to use it once a week after the initally start. If you email me, I'll call her and get the name of it for you. It works wonderful for her..she's been using it a couple of years now.
