Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is an embarrassing and socially
disabling problem, probably inherited, which affects about 1% of the
population. A UCLA study shows strong evidence that sweaty palms
syndrome
tends to run in families.It is more common in people of Asian descent,
specifically Vietnamese, Chinese, and Taiwanese individuals.
Hyperhidrosis
results from overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system,
which controls nerves in the chest cavity. Sweat glands are under the
involuntary control of the sympathetic nervous system.
Sympathetic overstimulation causes consequent stimulation of the
sweat glands, and thus hyperhidrosis. Los Angeles, Beverly Hills get your hyperhidrosis treatment done here.
