Naturally sweaty --hyperhydrosis tips?!


Question:

Naturally sweaty --hyperhydrosis tips?

I am a naturally kind of sweaty guy, I think it is genetic, and I am starting a new job in the fall where I have to wear a shirt and tie every day plus either a sweater, sweater vest, sports coat or suit jacket over it. I am really worried because the Job is in the south and up until now I've worked in short sleeve shirts, sometimes even in winter to avoid sweating--Should I just try and chug ice water all day? Does anyone have any tips?


Answers:

I have hyperhidrosis too. I have the problem on my hands, feet, armpits, trunk, and buttox. I don't want to get botox injections because they are expensive and you have to get them somewhat frequently. (And you can only get them in your hands, feet, and armpits.) And not only that, Botox is botulism that you inject!! (That scared me)

I bought a book with some tips in it. The first one for underarm sweat is to buy a natural loofah and scrub under your armpits. I did this and it worked! Not all loofahs work, so look around and find one that is right for you. It took about a week and a half for me to stop sweating. And loofahs are cheap and they last about 2 months. (Get them at Walgreen's or walmart etc...)

And secondly, you must stop using deodorant with ALUMINUM!!! This clogs the pores and causes sweating. If you still have odor problems, then buy a deodorant without aluminum. So you'll have to get a deodorant WITHOUT and antiperspirant. I found a women's deodorant be Adidas that is good. It uses cotton something or other. But the deodorant has to be transparent. Not all deodorants work.

And natural sage is supposed to stop 80% of sweating too. So go to a health foods store and ask them how to make sage into a tea. But be careful because sage can be toxic if taken wrong.

I've looked into other ways to stop sweating and tied a couple myself. I went to my doctor and he prescribed Drysol. This is 100% aluminum (almost) and it hurts like crazy! I used that for a while and then stopped because I don't want to get alzhimer's. Then he prescribed Rubunal (a pill) that is used in ssurgery to stop spit and sweat. These pills are a fortune! And I basically had no spit (miserable). But I did stop sweating completely.

I hope this is helpful. Just ty it. What have you got to lose?
