Hyperhidrosis

[Noddz]

Hi i dunno if this is the correct place to write this so am sorry if so. i have Hyperhidrosis since i was a child ive had some treatment at my local hospital (IONTOPHORESIS) But still no change. I’ve tried a number of things but the soles of my feet ,hands ,under arms suffer the worse. Am having trouble to socialise with friends and stuff due to this problem. Am 24 have no life as such due to this. But is there anyone here suffer with the same thing and what has helped and has not helped. Thanks

I'm 24 and have had hyperhidrosis for as long as I can remember. At the moment I am not getting any treatment as it seems to have calmed down a bit, not gone completely I still wear cotton gloves to knit with.

Have you been back to the doctors and asked about other treatments to try, they never seemed right for me but they might suit you

When you say you have had some treatment with the IONTOPHORESIS how much have you had? As I was going regularly to the hospital for over a year when I had treatment
