Hyperhidrosis?
I am 19 years old and I suffer from hyperhidrosis. For those who do not know it, its excessive sweating from certain areas of the body. In my case, I sweat excessively from my scalp. When I walk to class I’m practically sweating. Does anyone else have this condition and how do you deal with it? I’m lucky enough to have some cute girls fan me while I wait outside. I’m guessing they like me or feel bad haha. But I don’t sweat like I just ran, it’s just enough to bother the crap out of me, out of the norm. Anyone have a way to ease it that has the same problem?
i suffer from hyperhidrosis as well, but in the armpits. it had caused many embarrassing days, until i found CertainDri (if i remember correctly, the active ingredient is aluminum chloride). it is an over the counter product that you can buy for about $6. granted it is in a roll on form, i figure i might as well share what i have found to be a life saver. there are also pads soaked in the stuff that you can use to wipe on, but i havent tried those. just check to make sure that it contains the same active ingredient, and they might be easier to apply yo your head…good luck!
Ask your doc if he can hook you up with a prescription.
There are certain drugs that you could take to limit the sweating…. I hesitate to tell you which ones due to the forum that this is being discussed in, but if the doc is aware of your problem, then he probably could help you out.
