Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition distinguished by excessive sweating, not related to heat or physical exertion. Those affected sweat more than what is needed for the body's temperature regulation. This excessive perspiration can manifest either in specific areas of the body, known as focal hyperhidrosis, or over the entire body in a state called generalized hyperhidrosis. A variety of factors contribute to this condition, and it is thought to be mainly caused by overactive sweat glands.

At Apollo Hospitals in Bangalore, we have an accomplished team of doctors specialising in sweat disorder treatment who provide effective solutions for managing this condition. Our hyperhidrosis disorder treatment surgeons are well-versed in diagnosing and treating this issue, while our sweat disorder treatment doctors are experts at understanding and managing this condition.

Types/Stages of Hyperhidrosis

There are two main classifications of hyperhidrosis:

  • Primary (or idiopathic) Hyperhidrosis: This type has no known cause but is believed to result from overactive sweat glands. It often starts in childhood or adolescence and affects specific areas such as palms, soles, underarms, and face.

  • Secondary Hyperhidrosis: This type arises due to an underlying medical condition or medication use. The sweating is often more generalized across the body.

Symptoms of Hyperhidrosis

Individuals with hyperhidrosis may experience:

  • Frequent episodes of excessive sweating, even at rest or cool temperatures.

  • Clammy or wet hands and feet.

  • Skin infections due to constant moist conditions.

Tests to Diagnose Hyperhidrosis

At Apollo Hospitals, Bangalore, the following tests may be employed to diagnose hyperhidrosis:

  • Sweat Test: This involves applying a powder that turns dark when exposed to sweat.

  • Paper Test: Special paper is placed on the affected area to absorb sweat, and then weighed to determine the amount of sweat production.

  • Thermoregulatory Sweat Test: Powder that changes colour when you perspire is spread over your body to see where excessive sweating occurs.

  • Blood Tests: These can be used to rule out underlying conditions causing hyperhidrosis.

Treatment or Surgery Options for Hyperhidrosis at Apollo Hospitals in Bangalore

Apollo Hospitals, Bangalore offers a comprehensive range of treatment options for managing hyperhidrosis:

  • Topical Treatments: Prescription-strength antiperspirants containing aluminium chloride can help control sweating.

  • Oral Medications: Anticholinergic drugs are used to block the nerves that stimulate sweat glands.

  • Surgical Intervention: For severe cases, procedures like endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (cutting or clamping the nerves that control sweating) or microwave thermolysis (using microwave energy to destroy sweat glands in the underarms) may be considered.
