Hyperhidrosis Treatment

Cases of hyperhidrosis are often misdiagnosed. Young sufferers are told that hormone imbalance causes their sweating and that given time, the problem will go away. In older patients the condition is often classified as psychosomatic and they are told they have an anxiety disorder before being prescribed anti-depressants. A diagnosis of hyperhidrosis can can often be made by asking a few simple questions which can help determine if you have hyperhidrosis.

The treatment of first choice should always be an antiperspirant, and depending on the area of body requiring treatment, Iontophoresis is also worth trying. Low dose oral therapy with Robinul and Beta-blockers can also be effective, however the side effects of dry mouth, blurring vision and tiredness are often unacceptable. Oral treatment should only be attempted under the guidance of a knowledgeable doctor. Surgery can help and in the hands of a competent surgeon, the effects of compensatory sweating may be acceptable, it is vital, however, if contemplating this treatment to read extensively and join in the many Hyperhidrosis discussion forums on the Net before making this important decision. There are surgical success stories but there are also many individuals who regret having taken this course of action, tread carefully and don't be afraid to ask probing questions.
