Stop Sweaty Armpits
Hyperhidrosis (or excessive sweating) is a problem that plagues over a million people a year (in varying conditions of course). Mainly targeting the palms and underarms this condition can cause many negative side effects: emotional and physical. The most important thing to know is that if done correctly and from the source, this condition can be reduced to almost nothing. So take a second and give this article a quick read, I promise to tell you exactly how to stop sweaty armpits for good.
There are three main solutions to treating this condition however, (coming from someone who has been there) I can tell you that some are fantastic and some are not so fantastic. So lets check these methods out.
What i don't recommend
The first method is botox. Now there are some pro's and con's to this solution as there are with any method, so lets quickly check them out. Basically your doctor (or plastic surgeon) takes a bunch of needles and injects botox into the affected areas. The botox essentially blocks the nerves from communicating with the sweat glands and it stops you from sweating. But here is why I don't recommend this: While excessive sweating is a condition, sweating as a whole is not. In fact, it's a very important part of human survival. By getting rid of one problem you're creating another. Secondly, this can cost a lot of money. Any time you need a plastic surgeon, your check book is going to be ran up very high, and for the average person it's just not practical.
The next method is called Iontophoresis, and is my least favorite solution to sweaty armpits. Basically, your doctor takes a low voltage electrical shock to your skin. These shocks "numb" the nerves and stop you from sweating for a little while. While in most people this method doesn't hurt, I wouldn't want to even try that out. Secondly, this method is not a permanent solution as you would have to have appointments 3 times a week.
What i do recommend
What I do recommend to kill your sweaty armpits for good is natural methods. This is kind of hard to explain as a whole but, there are many courses and guides that will teach you exactly how to deal with it. Some methods see results as high as 95% treatment ratings.
Here is one small tip that you can try right now. If you are using bar soap to wash your underarms, stop right away. This can actually increase the probability of clogging and cause you to sweat more. Instead try using a washcloth. It's small, yet effective tips like this that can lead to your eventual curing of hyperhidrosis.
