Individuals affected by hyperhidrosis suffer greatly from the condition. Excessive sweating is often not recognized as a medical issue but is mistakenly associated with poor hygiene, leading to social isolation. Finding a competent therapist and a suitable treatment method is often not easy. In addition to a description of the anatomy of the sweat glands and the physiological process of sweating, the authors place great emphasis on distinguishing between different forms of hyperhidrosis and their psychosocial impacts. The core of the book presents all currently available treatment methods, including both conservative approaches and the latest surgical techniques. Those affected, as well as treating physicians, will gain an overview of the various causes and therapeutic approaches. Practical tips for insurance coverage are also included.
