Profuse Sweating On Hands And Foot. What Are The Chances Of Hyperhidrosis?

My hands & feet tend to sweat a lot. I am familiar with hyperhydrosis- my question is what are the chances I actually have hyper hydrosis as there have been times when the sweating completely stops for up to 2 weeks, and I find often times when they start to sweat, if I change my thinking to a more relaxed state it slows or stops.

Hi,

To cure Hyperhidrosis, you need to Maintain hygiene, do not wear tight or closed shoes for a long time, FARADIC BATH used in physiotherapy is very way to treat this problem of hyperhidrosis. Icing or cold immersion is again a good way to reduce sweating. Rest assure that your THYROID LEVEL is normal, as in hypothyroidism people often complains for these symptoms.
