Underarm Sweating

Frequent Questions

Isn't sweating essential and wouldn't underarm sweat reduction have harmful effects?

Sweating is essential but all of it doesn’t have to happen through underarms. Your underarms have only about 2% of your body’s sweat glands and eliminating them will not stop your body’s natural cooling process. In fact, it relieves you of wet and smelly underarms that leave patches on your clothes.

What causes excessive sweating?

Excessive sweating or Hyperhidrosis can be put under two categories. Primarily, it could be associated with family history and affects people between the age group of 18 to 54. Sweating is more excessive during the day than at night with no specific underlying reason identified so far. It is referred to as Focal hidrosis and usually affects the armpits, hands and feet, and head.

Secondarily, it could be due to various underlying medical conditions like infection, neurological conditions, respiratory disorders, stress factors, etc. Effective treatment of these conditions could reduce sweating significantly.

Both of these categories induce the body’s sweat glands to overact and sweat more than what is natural.

How harmful is hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhidrosis worsens over time and will have a negative impact throughout your life. If untreated, it could also develop into a skin infection and create other issues. On a mental note, it shies you away from your social life and creates embarrassments that make you stay away from the people and activities you love.

Which are the body parts commonly affected by hyperhidrosis?

Hyperhydrosis generally affects the armpits, palms, soles of the feet, cheeks and forehead in the face, genitals and lower back. Specific medical conditions could affect other parts of the body as well.
