How to control hyperhydrosis?
3 doctors weighed in across 4 answers
Prescription Meds: This is a hard one, and it depends where you are having the problem. If it is underarm prescription antiperspirants can help. If it is your hands or feet medications or Botox may help. I would suggest starting with your family doctor or dermatologist.

If hyperhydrosis: Surgery, in appropriate candidates, can be quite successful. While done often by experienced thoracic surgeons (vats), it is chest surgery (major surgery). There are risks and benefits. Appropriate candidates should be selected. This link to consensus: http://goo.Gl/voqx5.
