LEARN MORE ABOUT EXCESSIVE SWEATING

WHAT CAUSES HYPERHIDROSIS?

There are many reasons for excessive sweating, however, there is no one definitive cause. Generalised hyperhidrosis affects the whole body and can be caused by other conditions such as an overactive thyroid, diabetes, infections and menopause. Anxiety can also trigger or worsen hyperhidrosis and medication can cause excessive sweating as a side effect. 

HOW IS HYPERHIDROSIS DIAGNOSED?

A doctor can assess for the different kinds of hyperhidrosis. They can also test for underlying problems such as thyroid problems, diabetes and infections. Once diagnosed, you can then discuss potential treatments available. At DermConsult we offer a variety of different hyperhidrosis treatments which have proven to help excessive sweating in a number of clients.

HOW TO STOP EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Treatment depends on the type of hyperhidrosis. If there is an underlying cause, treating that will most likely resolve the sweating. If not, commercial aluminium chloride antiperspirants can prove helpful. 

Failing that, many other options are available. These include Botulinum toxin (Botox®); this can be injected in very small controlled doses to block the nerves which activate the sweat glands. This treatment usually works very well and can last up to 6-12 months, after which the treatment can be repeated. Another option for localised sweating is Ionthophoresis treatment which involves a procedure that sends mild electric currents through water into the skin using a device. If sweating is more generalised, anti-cholinergic tablets (tablets that block the nerves which stimulate sweat glands) may be effective.
