\u00a0<\/strong>Excessive sweating, known as hyperhidrosis, is a very unpleasant and shameful issue for those affected. Large sweat patches and light-coloured sweat marks under the armpits or wet hands give others the impression that they are overly stressed and insecure. It is therefore difficult for those affected to interact openly with other people in their private and professional lives, and their daily routine is characterised by repeated changes of clothing and other concealing measures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

What causes excessive sweating?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The sweat glands in our skin are connected to nerve endings of the involuntary (autonomic) nervous system. This controls numerous bodily functions without our conscious will, such as heart rhythm, blood pressure, digestion and heat balance. As a rule, sweating serves to release heat. During stress or unusually high activity of the autonomic nervous system, increased nerve impulses can be sent to the sweat glands, so that those affected start to sweat even when it is cold and, above all, without wanting to, where most of the sweat glands are found in the skin: in the armpit, on the hands and feet.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
