Hyperhidrosis/Excessive Sweating

Hyperhidrosis is a treatable medical condition, covered by most extended health care insurances, and is caused by over-activity of the sympathetic nervous system. Normal sweating is needed for thermal regulation, but over-sweating is uncontrollable and embarrassing. Hyperhidrosis can have severe physiological consequences such as dehydration and skin infections. Botox for hyperhidrosis inhibits the release of neurotransmitters that cause sweat production by paralyzing nerves that stimulate sweat glands.
