Dec 17, 2023

Introduction

Welcome to Neumark Surgery, where we specialize in providing innovative medical solutions for a wide range of conditions. In this article, we will explore the cause, symptoms, and the most effective treatments for palm sweating, also known as palmar hyperhidrosis.

Understanding Palm Sweating

Palm sweating refers to excessive sweating of the palms, which can be an embarrassing and uncomfortable condition for many individuals. It is a medical condition that affects thousands of people worldwide, and it can significantly impact their daily lives and self-confidence.

Causes and Symptoms

The exact cause of palm sweating is not fully understood, but it is believed to be related to an overactivity of the sweat glands in the hands. It can be triggered by various factors such as stress, anxiety, hormonal changes, or certain medical conditions.

Individuals with palmar hyperhidrosis often experience constant or intermittent excessive sweating of the palms, which can lead to wet and clammy hands. This can make simple tasks such as shaking hands or holding objects difficult and socially awkward.

Treatment Options

At Neumark Surgery, we offer advanced and effective treatment options for palm sweating, tailored to each individual's needs. Our team of skilled doctors and plastic surgeons has extensive experience in managing and successfully treating this condition.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Non-surgical treatments are usually the first line of approach for managing palm sweating. These options include:

  • Topical Antiperspirants: Prescription-strength antiperspirants can help reduce sweating by blocking the sweat glands.
  • Iontophoresis: This procedure involves passing a low-level electric current through the hands, which temporarily shuts down the sweat glands and significantly reduces sweating.
  • Botox Injections: Botox injections can be used to paralyze the sweat glands temporarily, resulting in reduced sweating.

Surgical Treatments

If non-surgical treatments do not provide sufficient relief, surgical intervention may be considered. Neumark Surgery specializes in the following surgical procedures:

  1. Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (ETS): ETS is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves cutting or clamping the responsible sympathetic nerves. It offers long-term relief for palm sweating.
  2. Ganglionectomy: This procedure involves removing or interrupting the nerve ganglia responsible for excessive sweating in the hands. It can be an effective treatment option for severe cases.
