”always thought that the brave sailor is a real man, in the time of bullying always heard the sailor said, he said the pain in the storm is nothing, dry your tears do not be afraid at least we have a dream”. This is the famous Taiwanese singer Zheng Zhihua’s inspirational song “Sailor”, which was sung to a high degree, and sailors once became the object of inspiration and aspiration for many post-80s children in their childhood. However, in the real world of thoracic surgery patients, there is such a special group of “sailors”, this group of sailors have unbearable experience. When they gently hold the hand of their lovers, when they shake hands with their colleagues and friends, those hands are always wet, which brings great inconvenience to their work, social life and life, and seriously affects the confidence of the “sailors”. Today, Dr. Du Hailei from the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Shanghai Ruijin Hospital will lead us to unveil the mystery of this group of “sailors” and introduce the fusion mechanism of thoracic surgery that allows this group of sweaty friends to wave goodbye to their “sailor” life.
This special group of “sweaties” is known as hand sweat patients in thoracic surgery. Hand sweating is a relatively common disease among adolescents in China, which is mildly characterized by moist palms; moderately characterized by sweaty palms that soak through a handkerchief; and severely characterized by sweaty palms in the form of dripping beads. The main cause is excessive sweat secretion caused by sympathetic excitement, and excessive sweat gland secretion will form hand sweat. This disease does not harm the health, but the confidence of the “sailors” in life.
Classification of hand sweating.
Depending on the cause of hand sweating, it can be divided into primary hand sweating and secondary hand sweating. Secondary hand sweating occurs after certain diseases, such as hyperthyroidism, menopausal syndrome, mental disorders, and during certain endocrine treatments, which can lead to increased hand sweating. Primary hand sweating is caused by sympathetic hyperactivity and is more common than secondary hand sweating.
What tests should be done at the hospital when hand sweating is suspected.
1, routine blood test: the purpose of doing routine blood test is to exclude infection.
2. Chest X-ray: A chest X-ray is done to check for tuberculosis, as tuberculosis is also the cause of increased hand sweating.

2. Chest X-ray: A chest X-ray is done to check for tuberculosis, which is also the cause of increased hand sweating.
3. T3 and T4 tests: to clarify whether hyperthyroidism is present.
4, blood glucose check: to check for the presence of diabetes.
After these systemic diseases that cause hand sweating have been eliminated through the above screening, the diagnosis of primary hand sweating can be made.
Treatment of hand sweating disorder – fusion mechanism of thoracic surgery treatment (thoracic sympathetic nerve puncture)
Thoracoscopic sympathetic nerve fusion dissection is to fuse the excitable sympathetic nerve from the root to achieve the root cause of excessive hand sweating, with the following advantages.
1, small incision: only a small 1-2cm hole is needed, the procedure is painless, almost no bleeding, and the site is hidden.
2, high safety: the whole process only takes 10-20 minutes, not repeated, does not affect work and life, safe and reliable.
3, good effect: after the operation, the hands stop sweating, hand temperature increases, the effect is immediate, the first day after the operation can be discharged from the hospital and normal work and study.
The opening of the era of minimally invasive treatment in thoracic surgery brings “sailors” the gospel of rapid treatment and rehabilitation. Thoracoscopic sympathetic nerve dissection, the fusion mechanism of thoracic surgery, is by far the most ideal and safest surgical procedure for the treatment of hand sweating!
