Severe hand sweating may be caused by primary hyperhidrosis, which can be treated through medication and surgery, etc. Depending on the degree of sweating, you can choose the appropriate treatment, which mainly includes medication, local physiotherapy and psychotherapy.
Medication includes astringents such as antiperspirants containing aluminium chloride and anticholinergic drugs. In severe hand sweating, endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy is the only procedure that has a lasting effect and can significantly reduce sweating in the palms and armpits.
This can be combined with psychotherapy to relieve the patient’s anxiety and restlessness if necessary.
