Hyperhidrosis
 

Does anyone else have a case of hyperhidrosis?

it's a very embarrassing and annoying condition.

I think I've had it for a while but it was very very mild before but it seems to have gotten worse.

When I play video games my palms sweat a little and I would get sticky sweat in my armpits and groin area a bit under my neck. :\

If I play Street Fighter and use an arcade stick it gets worse.

I can't even play iPhone games without getting a bit.

Hell, even using MS Paint/Photoshop makes me sweat!


God it's freaking annoying as hell. If I just showered and my friend askes me to play NHL online I usually have to decline.

Going to doctors next week and gonna ask about it. I hope I can control it.

if I may ask, how much do you weigh?

There are a few things to try depending on your severity. If you have very minor HH, then you just need topical treatment such as Drysol. You apply it to areas where you want to minimize sweat. The next level up is oral treatment. Pills such as Avert will be able to stop sweating. Avert contains glycopyrrolate which will tell your nervous system to sweat less. The next level up is electrolysis. It zaps your sweat glands and will stop sweating for a period of time. You will have to repeat this treatment regularly. The last level is surgery which will pretty much work for sure but carries some risks of side effects.

In your case, Avert at 2.0mg taken once daily is a good option. Cheap, works very well with minimal side effects.

I used to have HH, but it has mostly gone away after some years.

Try Certain Dri. Changed my life. You can get it in the deodorant aisle at LD. It comes in a box, read the instructions first

hmm interesting. All i've gotten is sweaty palms when i play video games, my cousins always complain lol it's very mild so i have never put much thought into it...but this is a good thread to follow. Thanks!

i suffered with it for 27 years.

hard to get gf's with your palms drip. :(

but its gone now and im finally happy.

I'm 5'10 and about 160lb.

Thanks, I'll look into these. I would much like to avoid the most drastic solutions though.

I think my current deodorant is doing just fine. Unfortunately it's not just my armpits but my groin area and neck as well.

my cousin carries a small light towel around that she just.. plays with all day. i used to wonder, but then i figured it it was the same problem you had.

Is this purely psychological?

I mean it makes no sense that video games and photoshop can cause me to sweat.

+1 for certain dri

this deodorant works wonders. one application overnight can last you up to 4 days

I actually have this problem too at times.. It really gets in the way sometimes.. especially when you're playing video games.. :fuuuuu:

I used to have it really bad in my underarms. It was the worst when I was about 15-22.. I used clinical deodorant at night before bed and it would help a lot. After a while though my body became immune to it I think because I started to sweat again. So annoying, armpits just cold sweating for no reason feeling all gross. It was embarrassing too so I would bring an extra shirt in my car and avoided grey shirts. Im 26 now and dont really get it anymore though unless I'm stressed or working hard.

Could it be your blood pressure rising?

Also, they can treat HH with botox now in certain locations on the body.

Did it go away by itself or did you take something?

I have sweaty palms and I'm pretty self-conscious about it.

My hyperhidrosis has gotten worse.

It's pretty much my entire body but most noticeable in the hands, armpit, neck and groin area.

Before it was things like playing videogames or photoshop that would trigger it.

Now it's constantly there!

It's not like dripping sweat but it's like...stick sweat? just enough there to make u feel uncomfortable. My body temperature rises too.

This latest development happened a few days ago.


Fuuuuuuuuuuuck I can't live like this I got enough other health problems to worry about!!!

What happens when you go running or any other form of physical activity?

I recommend Avert. It'll stop the sweating in 2 days.

^is that over the counter or perscription?

I am battling chronic back pain that I started 4 years ago so I have been unable to do any physical activities other than my basic core exercises.

But when I was healthy, I did sweat a lot during extreme exercise. I never understood how my hockey teammates were okay with not showering after a game.

No prescription. Welcome to pharmacy.ca

Avert 2.0mg. Get the trial size of 30 pills, $22.20.

Can I get some at my local pharmacy?

Kinda hoping I can get some today as I am uncomfortable literally 24hrs a day. Constant state of sticky sweat feeling.

It's just glycopyrrolate. You could ask around. You could also ask if pharmacy.ca can UPS it. They are in Toronto.

You need to see a doctor sir.

i would not recommend buying any online drugs without seeing a doctor first unless it is approved as an over the counter drug.
