Everybody sweats in some form or another, it’s a normal part of how our bodies regulate temperature. However, people with hyperhidrosis sweat in amounts far greater than needed to control their temperature. Of course, this may cause the person some distress or even embarrassment but there is a way to reduce this sweating and allow yourself to continue a normal life.
For some people hyperhidrosis may be linked to an underlying condition such as diabetes or an overactive thyroid gland. People with this condition produce a large volume of sweat meaning that the affected areas may be constantly damp. This may affect every day activities and make normal routine activities more difficult to carry out. This may also have a dramatic impact on the person’s social life. Excessive sweating does not necessarily mean that the person suffers from body odour. Body odour is in fact caused where the sweat remains where it is for an extended period of time.
