}Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis is a condition that causes excessive, uncontrollable sweating beyond what the body needs to stay cool. While it may seem like just overactive sweat glands, it's more complex and often distressing. When it affects areas like the palms, feet, underarms, or face, it can interfere with daily life, lower self-confidence, and cause embarrassment.
Hyperhidrosis: Causes and Strategy
Hyperhidrosis is a disorder that is characterized by heavy, uncontrollable sweating far beyond normal physiological requirements of heat control. It appears to be merely an overactive sweat gland problem, but in reality, the issue is more complicated and usually upsetting. Hyperhidrosis, particularly when it occurs on palms, soles, underarms, or face, can disrupt everyday living, affect self-confidence, and lead to social humiliation. In certain cases, advanced solutions like Anti-wrinkle injections in Santacruz can help manage the condition effectively by targeting overactive sweat glands.
What Causes Hyperhidrosis?
The etiology of hyperhidrosis is different in primary compared to secondary hyperhidrosis. Primary hyperhidrosis is the most frequent variant and usually has its onset during childhood or adolescence. Primary hyperhidrosis is typically localized to particular areas such as the hands, feet, axillae, or face and is not associated with any underlying medical condition. Although the cause is not entirely known, it is thought to be related to hyperactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. Overstimulation of eccrine sweat glands occurs as a result, especially during stress, anxiety, or even without provocation. There is a genetic component to this disorder, with most patients having an episode of too much sweating with a family history present.
Secondary hyperhidrosis, however, is less frequent but more widespread. It can be a sign of underlying medical ailments like hyperthyroidism, diabetes, obesity, menopause, infection, or adverse effects from some medications. In such instances, treatment of the underlying medical condition tends to correct the sweating.
Approach
The assessment starts with a comprehensive consultation in which we take into account the history, pattern, and severity of perspiration. In case secondary causes are suspected, appropriate investigations can be recommended to exclude systemic disease. In proven cases of primary hyperhidrosis, we design a multi-phase treatment plan depending on the site involved and patient lifestyle requirements.
Topical antiperspirants with medical-grade aluminum chloride are usually the initial treatment of choice. For patients who have recurrent symptoms, we provide botox fillers, which are quite effective, lasting for many months by disabling the sweat gland nerve impulses. These botox fillers are FDA-approved and offer a safe, minimally invasive solution for managing excessive sweating in localized areas.
