Excessive Sweating (hyperhidrosis)
Hyperhidrosis is a common condition in which a person sweats excessively.
Hyperhidrosis can be divided into two types, depending on whether an obvious cause can be identified. These are known as primary and secondary hyperhidrosis.
Hyperhidrosis can be challenging to treat and it may take a while to find the best treatment for you. Less invasive treatments will usually be recommended first.
Hyperhidrosis doesn't usually pose a serious threat to your health, but it can sometimes lead to further physical and emotional problems.
