What is Excessive Sweating?
Hyperhidrosis is a condition that affects over one million people in the UK, also known as excessive sweating, it causes the body to sweat far more than the body needs to in order to regular body temperature. The underarms are the most common part of the body to be affected by this condition – though it can also occur in other body parts including the back, feet, hands, and face.
Though this condition is usually harmless, it can cause embarrassment for its sufferers, especially in social situations. Excessive sweating can occur continuously throughout the day but can be worsened by situations that may cause stress or anxiety.
