What is hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)?
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition that causes abnormal and excessive sweating. This condition isn’t simply sweating due to heat or physical exertion—it’s sweating that goes beyond what’s necessary to cool the body and can occur at random and very inconvenient times.
People with hyperhidrosis may sweat heavily from several areas of the body, including the underarms, palms, soles of the feet, or face. This can happen without any apparent triggers, leading to feelings of discomfort and embarrassment. It’s a condition that can interfere with daily activities, making simple tasks, even holding a pen or turning a doorknob, difficult when affecting the hands.
