Excessive sweating is a common symptom affecting about 3 in every 100 people at some point during their lives. Most people do not feel that they need medical help but, in some cases, it can interfere with daily life and cause distress. I can provide you with professional advice on how to reduce symptoms and recommend treatments that may help.

Various areas of the body, like the face and back can be affected and sometimes is more localised, such as underarms. Sweating even when you do not feel hot can make you feel embarrassed and uncomfortable. Knowing that there are treatments available, and your symptoms are manageable will boost your self-confidence.

The functionality of sweating is to keep your body temperature at the ideal level and constant sweating without any external triggers may indicate that you have hyperhidrosis. It can affect just your hands, feet, underarms, or groin area. Botulinum toxin blocks the nerves that stimulate your sweat glands and may be the solution for excessive sweating issues. This treatment usually becomes effective after several injections.
