How do you know you have Hyperhidrosis? Cures?

Question

Hi, I am 17 but I think I have Hyperhidrosis... its basically a condition where you sweat ... a lot... I saw some extreme ones where people's hands sweat like mad, mine isn't that bad. But I think I do have it. Its pretty embarrassing. How can I confirm this if I have it or not. I mostly sweat under my armpits a lot... thats why I can't wear long sleeve shirts ... like the thin fitted ones. Thanks !

Answer 1

If you think you have it you probably do... maybe mild but probably. You can get antiperspirant samples from your doctor to try, like Certain-Dri, etc. The only "cures" i can think of involve surgery, and you wouldn't want to do that if your Hyperhidrosis is mild.

Answer 2

Thinking you have and finding out,are two different things.Before you ask on this site,why don't you ask a doctor?It might be caused by something you can be helped with.

Answer 3
