Best Doctors for Over Sweating Treatment in Visakhapatnam

Over sweating or hyperhidrosis is the excessive sweating done by an individual without any reason like heat or even doing exercise. It is caused when the glands responsible for sweat are overactive, which happens most of the time for unknown reasons, leading it to primary hyperhidrosis, while sometimes it may be caused by some medical conditions like diabetes mellitus, thyroid disease, and infections among others, thereby termed as secondary hyperhidrosis.

Such symptoms of excessive sweating include persistent sweating in specific areas like the hands, feet, underarms, or face. As such, a person may end up with wet clothing, clammy skin, and discomfort. In extreme cases such symptoms may cause embarrassment and anxiety, and even hinder simple daily tasks such as holding objects or writing. Treatment would depend on what is causing it, but common recommendation is usually antiperspirants containing aluminum chloride in order to decrease the quantity of sweating. More serious instances may include antiperspirants, drugs, Botox injections, and surgical iontophoresis using electrical currents. In extreme cases, surgery might be performed to remove sweat glands or disable their workings. Excess sweating can also be managed through treatment of underlying conditions and lifestyle changes.
