excessive sweating

Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is when the body produces sweat when it is not in a warm environment. Sweating is natural to keep the body cool when in a hot environment or after exercise.

Excessive sweating can be caused by

genetics, hormonal changes during menopause, side effects of medication, infections, anxiety or diabetes. You can reduce symptoms by using a good anti perspirant, medicated creams which you can obtain from your GP to reduce sweating, relaxation methods including meditation and yoga if it is due to anxiety

.

For more extreme cases or those who find it particularly hard to control you can get botox injections in to the sweat glands to block them from releasing sweat.
