A common condition in which a person sweats excessively, affecting the whole body or specific areas.
What is it?
It's natural to sweat - our bodies use it as a method to control our temperature. However, when the sweating is excessive and persistent, it's not considered typical. Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterized by excessive sweating, beyond what is necessary for body temperature regulation. It can affect specific areas of the body, such as the palms, feet, underarms or face, or it can also be generalized, affecting the entire body. This condition can be both physically uncomfortable and emotionally distressing, often interfering with daily activities and social interactions.
Hyperhidrosis can either be inherited (primary hyperhidrosis) or acquired (secondary hyperhidrosis) due to factors such as diabetes, gout, menopause, medication allergies, cancer and stressful situations.
