I think I have hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating. But my Mom insists that I don’t have it. What can I do?

I am having problems with hyperhidrosis. I was thinking about going to a dermatologist, instead of a regular family doctor, and was wondering if it was easy to schedule an appointment with them. Also, i was wondering if they are able to help with hyperhidrosis problems or if it would just be a waste of my money and time.

I have sweaty hands and my mom and dad says its just puberty and ill just grow out of it but i think it is something worse like Hyperhidrosis… so how do I know?

I have suffered from hyperhidrosis since the age of 12. I used aluminum chloride for 4 years and it worked well, until one day it just quit. Since then I have tried oral medication, other types of antipersperints, and botox 3 times. Nothing seems to help. Surgery is not an option for me. Just wondered if anyone had any ideas in helping me with this daily struggle of hiding my sweat marks. Thanks.

I’ve been dealing with Hyperhidrosis since I was in elementary. I’m now in my early 20’s and about to start my new chosen career. During the past, I’ve given up so many oppurtunities because of this. It has cost me a great deal of embarrassment and awkwardness. I’ve been
ridiculed so many times yet people don’t seem to understand that it’s beyond my control. Please help me anyone. The years I went through with this were horrible. I would really appreciate your replies to my concern.

How much do botox shot cost for palmer hyperhidrosis?? Can they be free as a form of treatment??
Do you need to be insured in the USA?

How about in Canada??

I’ve been excessively sweating for a long time now and I didn’t realize that there was a name for it until just recently. So, I was wondering if there are any recommended treatments for it. I’ve been trying a prescription deodorant, but it doesn’t seem to be working that well. So are there any other remedies for hyperhidrosis? I’m fine with any suggestions as long as it isn’t surgery, botox, or iontophoresis. And if not remedies, are there any recommendations for things to do? I had heard that drinking more water was good but is there anything else?

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?
