My excessive sweating story and how I cured it
Excessive sweating causes and treatments.
If you have never had to deal with excessive sweating it may be hard to understand how embarrassing and awkward it can be. In my case, I found it difficult to function in normal everyday situations without feeling self-conscious about it.
A situation that causes someone who suffers from hyperhidrosis to be close to others will find themselves feeling even more anxiety because of this disorder. Excessive sweating has been known to make personal as well as social settings more challenging.
I do however have some good news for you. There is an excessive sweating cure! You don’t have to live with hyperhidrosis any longer.
There are many methods for treating hyperhidrosis. And of course it is always good to try natural treatments first. While some doctors may prescribe high strength antiperspirants others may recommend surgery to remove the overactive sweat glands.
The problem with prescription strength antiperspirants is the link between such diseases as breast cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. Aluminum chloride, the ingredient found in most of these products, is used to clog the pores and keep the sweat glands from producing as much sweat.
One of the main functions of our skin (our largest organ) is to protect the internal organs as well as the lymphatic system from being disrupted by chemicals that may be absorbed through normal everyday applications. Aluminum chloride can cause the body to function in a way that nature never intended it to.
A high strength antiperspirant will not totally prevent your excessive sweating. It is not a cure and my simply mask to some degree the amount of sweat you produce.
Another alternative a doctor may recommend is a type of surgery called Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy. This is extremely expensive and most insurance companies will not cover this type of surgery. And even it is not a total cure and after surgery patients can experience compensatory sweating.
This simply means that the sweating that was eliminated from one area of the body now causes other parts of the body to sweat much more than normal.
The good news is you don’t have to live like this any longer!
I know exactly how you feel. I worry about the way I look too. This has been something I have dealt with for over 10 years now. It can be so bothersome that utter desperation may set in while searching for a solution.
Don’t live with the feelings of awkwardness and embarrassment any longer. Visit my blog for a detailed look into the life of a former hyperhidrosis sufferer.
