What can I do about excessive underarm sweating?
Question:
Answers:
I have to say i tried everything for underarm sweating and was beyond happy when i found a product called 'CertainDry'. Its a deodorant you put on in the evening before sleep. Then in the morning you can use regular deodorant. It really changed my life and works miracles. Please try it. I got it in the US for about $5.
surgery...to close some or all of your under arm pores
try deoderant- im serious, not all deoderants work the same...1 out of every 4 women sweat more than usual...try ban company, it works really well, or try mens deoderant, sometimes that stronger
well i had to talk to my Doctor about the same issue. she gave me something called Drysol. she said it would help my sweating under my arms. i tried it i thought it worked pretty good. just talk to the doc. before getting it.
Using loads of powerful deoderant may help a little of course, but can it time cause breast cancer. I bought a "deoderant crystal" spray from the grocery store. It has nothing more than types of salt they've used in thailand for thousands of years. Now it doesn't stop the sweating like some have come to expect, but it stops the bacteria from ever growing, (and plain sweat does not smell).
My friend had that same problem, but soon her sweat turned to blood. She had to have surgery. I'm not saying that you will soon start sweating blood, but you should talk to a dermatologist and see what he recommends. Try all non-surgical techniques first. Heck, try a bunch of different deodorants (if you don't mind spending the money buying different brands.) When I had excessive sweat issues, I bought 4 different deodorants before I found 2 that helped me (Degree and Secret). Good luck!
I'm assuming you've tried anti-perspirant deoderants.
Excessive sweating usually occurs in warmer weather.
You should go to your GP and ask him to refer you to a specalist,
or my other idea...
you could put some tissues under your arm?
I have found the Mitchem underarm deodorant to be especially good. I have no idea what the active ingredient in it is, but after about 2 weeks of use, you will notice a marked decrease in the amount of underarm wetness you have. However, once you stop using it, or switch brands, your body will return to it's previous level of perspiration within a couple of days. You do not say what your body type is, but being overweight, even a few pounds, will definitely increase how much you perspire. So dieting also helps. If all else fails, Botox injections have been shown to reduce perspiration dramatically. Personally, I can't imagine having needles stuck in my armpits, but it is something to consider.
If changing deodorant / antiperspirant does not help, contact your doctor, dermatologist?
