EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Excess sweating can be an embarassing condition that can affect the whole body, most commonly the under arms. It can cause significant emotional distress, with sufferers feeling conscious of wearing certain clothing in a social or work setting. Botulinum toxin is the most common treatment to successfully help reduce sweating, which allows sufferers to wear the clothes they love and boost their confidence. Results last up to 6-9 months. 

What is Hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterised by excessive sweating, significantly surpassing the body's normal requirements for temperature regulation. This condition can affect various parts of the body, including the armpits, hands, feet, face, and chest, leading to discomfort and often, emotional distress. Unlike normal sweating, hyperhidrosis may occur without physical exertion or high temperatures, making daily activities and social interactions challenging for those affected.

Causes of Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, can stem from various factors. Primarily, it may be classified into two types: primary hyperhidrosis, which has no identifiable medical cause and is thought to be hereditary, and secondary hyperhidrosis, which is a result of an underlying health condition. Secondary causes include thyroid problems, diabetes, infections, and certain medications. Lifestyle factors and diet can also exacerbate the condition, with caffeine and spicy foods being common triggers.

When to Seek Medical Advice

It's prudent to seek medical advice if excessive sweating disrupts your daily life or causes social anxiety or if you notice sweating that suddenly increases or occurs at night. Early consultation can help diagnose any underlying conditions that may be causing the hyperhidrosis and provide access to effective treatments to manage the symptoms.

How is Hyperhidrosis Diagnosed?

Diagnosing hyperhidrosis typically involves a detailed medical history and physical examination. Your doctor may perform tests to rule out underlying conditions. In some cases, a sweat test that measures the severity of sweating or lab tests to check for thyroid issues, diabetes, or infections may be necessary to determine the cause and extent of the condition.
