Hyperhidrosis - Causes, Symptoms and Treatment
Definition Hyperhidrosis is the condition characterized by abnormally increased perspiration, in excess of that required for regulation of body temperature. Some patients afflicted with the condition experience a distinct reduction in the quality of life. Sufferers feel at a loss of control because perspiration takes place independent of temperature and emotional state. A common complaint of patients is that they get nervous because they sweat and then sweat more because they are nervous. Other factors can also play a role. Certain foods & drinks, nicotine, caffeine, and smells can trigger a response. Sweating is embarrassing, it stains clothes, ruins romance, and complicates business and social interactions. Severe cases can have serious practical consequences as well. It will make it hard for people who suffer from it to hold a pen, grip a car steering wheel, or shake hands. Causes
