How to stop excessive sweating all over body?

The doctors for over sweating treatment explain that over sweating or generalized hyperhidrosis can be hard to manage, but several measures help reduce sweating and provide comfort. Some steps that can be taken for excessive sweating include:

  • Use clinical-strength antiperspirants containing aluminium chloride in areas prone to excessive sweating, such as the underarms, hands, and feet, before bed
  • Wear loose-fitting, breathable clothing made of natural fibres like cotton to allow better air circulation and reduce sweating
  • To reduce excessive sweating, practice stress-reduction techniques, such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga

How to control Oversweating?

Specialist doctors for over sweating treatment advise some measures that can help control excessive sweating, such as:  

  • Wear loose-fitting, breathable clothing made of natural fibres like cotton
  • Identify and avoid triggers that cause sweating
  • Keep living and working spaces cool
  • Practising stress-management techniques     

What is the cause of Oversweating?

Over sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is a condition in which the body produces more sweat than necessary to regulate body temperature. It is mainly of two types known as primary hyperhidrosis and secondary hyperhidrosis. Each class has different underlying causes, and they include:

  • Primary (Idiopathic) Hyperhidrosis - The exact cause of primary hyperhidrosis is not fully understood, but it is thought to be related to an overactive sympathetic nervous system. It starts in childhood or adolescence and can be hereditary, with a family history of the condition.
  • Secondary Hyperhidrosis - Secondary hyperhidrosis is caused by an underlying medical condition or certain external factors that can include:

  1. Drug or alcohol use can lead to excessive sweating
  2. Infections such as tuberculosis, HIV, or certain fungal infections
  3. Some types of cancer, such as lymphoma
  4. Spinal cord injury can lead to sweating abnormalities

Frequently Asked Questions
Hyperhidrosis is a condition in which the excess production of sweat is more than what is required to regulate body temperature.
Specialists say that genetic factors can cause over sweating, the presence of overactive sweat glands triggers such as heat, stress, anxiety, spicy foods, caffeine, underlying medical conditions such as thyroid disorders, diabetes, menopause, some medications such as antidepressants, antihypertensives, etc., and some medical procedures.
Permanent management of sweaty palms and hands may require procedures such as laser ablation of sweat glands, botox injections that have to be repeated often, iontophoresis, and in severe cases, dissection of the nerves through surgical procedures.
While over sweating can be stopped entirely with the help of surgical procedures such as the removal of the sweat glands or sympathectomy, in which the nerve supply to the sweat glands in a particular region of the body is cut off, medical and conservative treatments provide relief but may not be able to cure it completely.
The treatments specialist doctors provide for over sweating include medications such as prescription strength, antiperspirants and anticholinergics. Other procedures such as botox injections, iontophoresis, and in severe cases, surgical removal of sweat glands or sympathectomy procedures may be done to cut off the action of the sweat glands in a particular area of the body.
The best specialists for Hyperhidrosis treatment are dermatologists trained to diagnose and treat problems affecting the skin, nails, and hair or a general physician as an initial consultation. If required and based on the underlying cause, a referral may be made to an endocrinologist or a neurologist. If surgical interventions are sought, a general surgeon may be consulted.
To seek hyperhidrosis treatment in Hyderabad, one can consult a dermatologist or a skin specialist at any dermatology clinic, dermatology hospital, multispecialty clinic, or hospital with dermatology consultations available if required referrals may be made to other specialities for further management and treatment.

An initial consultation with a hyperhidrosis expert can cost between Rs.500 - Rs.1,000 or more, and additional costs may be incurred for procedural treatments.
