Excessive Sweating is something that affects
around 3% of the population. In the UK this is could be nearly 2 million people, and in
the US the figure could be as many as 9 million.
Sweating itself is totally natural, it's the body's mechanism for cooling itself.
But for people who suffer from excessive sweating, this mechanism over reacts and they can
sweat 4 or 5 times more than a normal person.
If
you suffer from excessive sweating (or hyperhidrosis as it is technically called) it can rule your
life – dictating what you do, where you go, even what you wear. It is a problem that can have a
huge impact on sufferers’ personal and professional lives.
Whilst
hyperhidrosis is a medical condition, many people who suffer from it are never properly
diagnosed and therefore don’t get the help and treatment they need. A lot of the time this is due
to a lack of awareness of the problem and the help that is available.
This site
aims to provide information and advice to enable a better understanding of the problem of excessive
sweating, as well as some suggestions for not only living with the problem, but curing it
naturally and permanently.
If you are concerned about your excessive sweating problem, you should visit your
doctor.
