About Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating)

Having palmar hyperhidrosis is very common today. In a world where we are overwhelmed with anxiety and stress, excessive sweating is a typical response of our bodies.

Just being at a job interview or giving a speech can cause sweaty hands. But for many, sweaty hands are not just something that happens now and then. Palmar hyperhidrosis can be a troubling and embarrassing condition.

Palmar hyperhidrosis is also known as sweaty hands or sweaty palms. It usually begins in childhood and can worsen through the adult age. Many who have palmar hyperhidrosis socially are afraid to shake hands due to excessive sweating on their palms.

Palmar hyperhidrosis is believed to be caused by overactivity in our sympathetic nervous system… something which is beyond control. This is usually the case for those who have sweaty hands almost all the time. If you get sweaty palms now and then it is most likely due to conditions such as obesity, menopause or diabetes.

There are several treatments available for sweaty hands. Seek medical advice for more information on the hyperhidrosis treatment that is best for you.
