Excessive perspiration is a common condition . It can either be idiopathic or secondary to certain internal ailments.Hyperthyroidism is one the important causes of excess perspiration.Topical aluminium hydroxide containing lotion can be applied to reduce the perspiration. Calamine lotion can also be used due to its drying effects.Iontophoresis and botulinum toxin injection are the other treatment options.Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned therapy.
