Kindly suggest the management for sweaty palms.

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am suffering from sweaty palms. It is very difficult for me to work in an office or shake hands during business meetings. Please kindly suggest a remedy.

Hello

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Your condition is called palmoplantar hyperhidrosis (sweat glands of palms and soles secrete inappropriately large quantities of sweat). Apply the lotion I am prescribing you below. Another more long-lasting and more effective treatment is Botox injections given in the palmar skin only. The effect lasts for six months.

Probable diagnosis

Palmar hyperhidrosis.

Treatment plan

1. Aldry or Nosweat lotion apply once at night for four weeks.
