Sweating is the body's natural means of controlling body temperature. It is normal to sweat more when it is hot, during exercise or when stressed or anxious. Excessive sweating is known as hyperhidrosis. When this occurs in the underarms it is termed excessive underarm sweating or axillary hyperhidrosis.
According to Hyperhidrosis UK, excessive sweating affects around 1% of the UK population. Hyperhidrosis can lead to discomfort and embarrassment in sufferers. The condition is most commonly treated with botulinum toxin injections, which temporarily block the nerve signals that trigger sweat production.
