Underarm & Hand Sweating

Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating is a very common problem 

Do You… 

  • Sweat a lot...at home & at work, in summer and in winter?
  • Sweat if anxious or stressed? 
  • Have to change your clothes frequently because of sweating? 
  • Sweat after having alcohol, coffee, tea, hot or spicy food? 
  • Do you feel your quality of life is being affected by sweating?  

Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is a common disorder which produces a lot of unhappiness. Excessive sweating of the underarms or of the palms and soles of the feet are most common. Heat and emotions may trigger hyperhidrosis in some, but many who suffer from hyperhidrosis sweat nearly all the time, regardless of their mood or the weather. Excessive sweating is embarrassing and often complicates business and social interactions and in severe cases excess sweat can have serious practical consequences. 

At Woodford Medical we recommend Botox injections to help treat excessive sweating. The tiny pin prick injections will help block the actions of the nerves to prevent the glands from producing sweat. As Botox injections are not permanent, new nerve endings will grow again and start to produce sweat but the treatment should last several months depending on the level of your problem.
Call our treatment advisors for more details on this very effective treatment.
