I have excessive sweating for my hands, feet and armpits. what should i do to stop or avoid it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Excessive sweat: Hyperhydrosis can be treated with prescription strength deodorants/antiperspirants, topical aluminum chloride, Botox, ionophoresis or nerve ablation. I recommend discussing these options with a dermatologist. Prescription strength antiperspirants and hand and foot topical aluminum chloride are available over the counter which you can try before meeting with a dermatologist as well. Good luck!
