Information: Sweating

Hyperhidrosis is the medical term for excessive sweating. The problem may be limited to the armpits, but often the palms and soles also sweat excessively. Excessive sweating becomes noticeable after puberty. Stressful situations such as examinations, job interviews or an important date often aggravate the sweating. Unfortunately, most over the counter antiperspirants do not control hyperhidrosis.
