About Hyperhidrosis Treatment UK
Many men suffer from Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating), it is a relatively common condition that can often be embarrassing and distressing, with it being notoriously challenging to treat. Excessive Sweating can occur anywhere at work, at the gym, or just day today, with symptoms often getting worst during the summer months. There is no such guideline on the ‘normal’ amount of sweat, however, if you feel that you overly sweat and it is affecting your day-to-day life you may want to look into available treatments. Often it is not clear why Hyperhidrosis develops however there are treatments available that can dramatically reduce symptoms.
Excessive sweating can occur anywhere on the body, the most commonly effected areas being:
- Palms of your hands
- Armpits
- Soles of your feet
- Groin
- Face and Chest
Hyperhidrosis treatment works by injecting Botox into the area that is producing excess sweat e.g armpits. This injection blocks the nerve impulses that produce sweat allowing excessive sweating to be reduced.
