If you are a person who suffers from constant underarm sweat, sweaty palms, or even sweaty feet, you may have a very treatable medical condition known as hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis is a condition in which a person excessively sweats. With hyperhidrosis, these nerves become hyperactive, calling for more perspiration than needed. When coupled with stress or exercising they can actually worsen. This type of condition can be very awkward and psychologically embarrassing. In addition to the physical limitations that may arise, sweating in excess can have a psychological impact, making you anxious or unwilling to interact with others on a social or professional level. You deserve to live confidently.
