Extractions: Most people with hyperhidrosis will initially try simple measures to control their excessive sweating, often to no avail. Dusting powders like cornstarch and talcum powder may help for a very short while, but the sweating can often be so profuse as to wash the powder away. Many people have tried regular spray or roll-on antiperspirants, astringent Other people have tried a variety of natural or herbal products with varying degrees of success. Some of the various herbal treatments that have been suggested by others include chamomile for its relaxing property, which may help prevent the anxiety that may worsen hyperhidrosis, and valerian or St. John's wort, but there are few scientific studies to show if these truly help. Many people learn to avoid situations that may worsen their sweating, like meeting new people, public appearances or public performances, or even dining out, as there is a condition known as gustatory sweating, which often occurs in diabetics with
Pharmacologic Treatments bothersome sites, as was reported in the papers on gustatory sweating in diabetes (Atkin Sl Brown PM, Treatment of diabetic gustatory sweating with topical http://www.excessivesweating.org/pharma.html
Extractions: Aside from the topical and herbal treatments discussed on the Home Remedy page, medications can be taken internally, usually by mouth, that may help dry up excessive sweating. Some patients may suffer from sweating as a symptom of an anxiety disorder, such as agoraphobia , panic disorder, or social anxiety disorder, where they get unreasonably nervous in certain situations. People with these problems are often best treated with specific psychiatric medications to control their anxiety, or with psychotherapy. However, they may still require symptomatic treatments to help control their bodily reactions to these situations; the decision to use medications for these conditions is best left up to their treating physician or psychiatrist. For the condition known as stage fright, where otherwise calm people may get so nervous if they have to speak or perform in public, some physicians recommend using a small dose of a drug known as a beta blocker sympathetic nerve endings, but at a different point than the acetylcholine blocking drugs do. Beta-blockers are often used for high blood pressure, angina, heart disease, and migraines, but must be used very carefully, especially by people with asthma, diabetes or lung diseases, and are only available by prescription. Physicians have often found the combination of
Linda Bartoshuk Q&A Steffan When we eat peppers, there is a normal reaction called, gustatory sweating. Typically, the sweating is restricted to the head. http://www.pbs.org/safarchive/3_ask/archive/qna/3294_peppers.html
Extractions: Fortunately for all of us who love chili peppers, exposing the tongue to capsaicin does not affect the sense of taste in the long run. However, while you are experiencing the burn of the pepper, you may notice that tastes seem blunted (e.g., see Lawless, Rozin, and Shenker, 1985). The exact mechanism for this effect is not known. Dr. Tracy Karrer (one of my students) studied desensitization of the tongue to capsaicin. She asked subjects to swab capsaicin solutions onto their tongues for 15 minutes. Then she let the burn of the capsaicin slowly fade (it takes about 20 minutes). After that when she reapplied capsaicin, it produced no burn (this is an example of the desensitization of the tongue that can be used to treat the pain of oral lesions); however, the only taste change was a slight reduction in the ability to taste bitter and that lasted on the order of days.

Extractions: The consequences of hyperhidrosis are primarily psychosocial in nature. Excessive sweating may be socially embarrassing or may interfere with certain professions. For example, palmar hyperhidrosis may preclude art work, working with electrical components, or playing certain musical instruments. In addition, hyperhidrosis may lead to a need for several changes of clothing a day; excessive sweating may also result in staining of clothing or shoes.
Dalhousie Medical Journal as Frey s syndrome (1). Also referred to as auriculotemporal syndrome or gustatory sweating, it is most commonly encountered in postparotidectomy patients. http://medjournal.medicine.dal.ca/dmjonlin/spring99/orig4.htm
Extractions: Frey's syndrome represents a fascinating example of how nerve regeneration can go awry. The syndrome is characterized by profuse facial sweating and flushing that occurs when salivation is stimulated. It can develop following a variety of insults, but is most commonly encountered as a complication of parotidectomy. Consequently, it is mainly otolaryngologists who see and treat this disorder; however, it is important for other clinicians to recognize what these unusual symptoms represent. Diagnosis may be based either on clinical presentation or through objective testing methods. Potential negative social and psychological implications of this condition can be significant, and treatment, ranging from topical agents, to local injections of botulinum toxin (Botox), to surgical intervention should be offered to patients. In this article, we present a clinical case and review the etiology of Frey's syndrome, its diagnosis and treatment. Profuse sweating and flushing over the preauricular and parotid regions of the face during mastication constitutes the symptom complex known as Frey's syndrome (1). Also referred to as auriculotemporal syndrome or gustatory sweating, it is most commonly encountered in post-parotidectomy patients. Its incidence is not known for certain, but it is estimated that approximately 50% of post-parodidectomy patients will report symptoms, while over 90% will test positive for gustatory sweating using objective tests. Symptoms usually become apparent within several months of surgery (1,2).

Extractions: Lisa dates her problem with hyperhidrosis to her sophomore year of high school. It probably started a bit earlier, she thinks, but a humiliating experience during her Oral Communications class marks the symbolic beginning of her struggle with hyperhidrosis. After literally sweating through an oral presentation in front of the class, she heard a fellow student mutter in disgust, "Oh my God, look at her. Look at how bad she's sweating." Lisa still finds the memory painful. Being a 15-year-old girl is tough, but being a 15-year-old girl with hyperhidrosis is tougher. The fun of being a cheerleader was overshadowed by the turmoil of constantly worrying about how much she was sweating. She worked up the courage to tell her parents, but they didn't really understand. "I didn't even know that prescription antiperspirants existed, and I was too young to take the situation into my own hands," she remembers today at age 26. So she changed clothes 3 times a day, stuffed tissues, napkins, and paper towels in her armpits, and blamed herself. And that's how she coped with hyperhidrosis for the next 8 years. A newsmagazine show was on the TV, but Lisa wasn't paying much attention. Then she realized that the woman being interviewed was talking about her constant battle with sweating. "My head just spun around," remembers Lisa. "I thought it was just me, and so I blamed myself. Then I saw this woman on TV and I realized, I'm not the only one."

This is reported to occur in 50-85% of patients who undergo sympathectomy for hyperhidrosis. It occurs regardless of whether the procedure is an open or endoscopic procedure. Compensatory hyperhidrosis is a condition where the sweating is shifted from the hands, armpits, face and feet to the back, lower chest, abdomen, buttocks and the backs of the thighs. The brain does this is order to get rid of body heat. There has been no recorded history of patients developing heat stroke after the operation because there are other ample areas where the body can sweat. It has been theorized that the CS would only happen if more than one level (T2) were clipped, but it is well known that severe CS may occur when only T2 is clipped. Mild to moderate sweating occurs in most cases it is and is usually tolerable. Most patients feel, "I can tolerate it as long as my hands don't sweat or my face doesnt blush,"
