Excessive Sweating
Excessive sweating occurs when someone sweats without the triggers of heat or physical activity. Besides disrupting normal daily activities, this type of heavy sweating can cause social anxiety and embarrassment.
Most cases occur in people who are otherwise healthy. Making a few lifestyle changes can help to curb excessive sweating:
• Wear breathable, loose-fitting natural fabrics.
• Wear absorbent socks and change them often.
• Avoid enclosed boots and sports shoes. Swap shoes out daily.
• Shower more frequently.
• Identify and avoid triggers that worsen your sweating e.g. alcohol, caffeine or spicy food.
About 1% of people who experience excessive sweating however have a medical condition called hyperhidrosis and may require more aggressive treatment. Thoroughly discuss all available options with your pharmacist at The Local Choice Pharmacy to find a solution.
