A member asked:

I am a 64 yr old with 20 yr history of crps and very severe sweating, lately even worse. any ideas on reducing sweating?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

BOTOX: A number of meds could act as an anticholinergic and decrease sweating, but the side effects could be a bit trying. Botox can be used successfully if specific target areas are designed, but only helps locally, so need to have a well organized approach.
