Question

Help! I seem to have sweat patches if I do anything! My mother says it's because I'm nervous, but I can't wear colours like green, pink, blue etc. just like black and white!! can anyone help me!? p.s Driclor doesn't help either and this problem will take over my life if i can't control it :(

Answer 1

Ok, read this and read carefully, I had the exact same problem and believe me I tried all the available deodorants/antiperspirants without getting any good results until I tried CERTAIN DRI, it's not like a regular antiperspirat (it's not a deodorant which covers the bad smell for a couple minutes and doesn't do anything for people with our problem) it's more like a treatment you have to follow, you put it on at night (don't use too much or it'll burn) and after a couple weeks you'll notice the difference, very important!:don't skip any night when you're first starting on it and don't use it right after taking a shower...I still use a regular deodorant during the day, in case I sweat a tiny bit...
If you're worried about not sweating from there anymore, you're body will start sweating a little bit more from other areas to compensate (I think my body chose the area between my breasts for compensation hehehe)good luck!!!

I buy it at the CVS

Here is the answer to someone who asked a similar question somewhere else. I hope it helps you.

Question:
I have a problem with sweating profusely. My underarm area is the worst. I have tried every deodorant on the market and nothing seems to help. The stress of worrying about smelling bad and the cold and wet feeling under my arms makes me avoid other people. I want to get rid of this problem and regain my social life. Thank you for your advice.

Answer:
You are describing what is medically referred to as hyperhidrosis, or profuse sweating for no apparent reason. Hyperhidrosis primarily affects the armpits, groin, palms of the hands and soles of the feet.

Sweating usually is caused by blood vessel dilation in response to heat, physical exertion or emotional situations, such as being embarrassed or angry. Less commonly, sweating can be caused by certain medical conditions, such as an overactive thyroid gland or acute or chronic infections.

The body contains approximately two to four million sweat glands. Age, race, sex, physical condition and sensitivity to heat affect the amount an individual sweats. Inactive people can lose up to two quarts of fluid a day through sweat, but heat and physical exertion can increase this output to as much as 5 to 10 quarts. While sweating is an important mechanism the body uses to control its internal temperature, a number of things can be done to correct excessive sweating and body odor.

Technically, sweat glands do not produce body odor. The characteristic smell of body odor does not occur until perspiration comes in contact with bacteria present on the skin's surface. Since the first commercial deodorant called Mum became available in the late 1800s, the market has focused on two types of products to minimize underarm sweating and odor: Antiperspirants are designed to decrease the production of sweat. They diffuse into sweat glands and retard the flow of perspiration. The primary ingredient in most antiperspirants is aluminum chloride, which also is moderately effective against bacteria that produce odor. These agents can decrease the flow of underarm sweat by about 50 percent.

Deodorants either decrease the number of bacteria on the skin or mask the odor without affecting the amount of sweat the glands produce. However, the best defense against odor is regular washing with a mild soap.

Additional treatments are available for people with hyperhidrosis, including the use of 20 percent aluminum chloride in a solution, spray or powder available by prescription. Biofeedback therapy may be helpful. Today, newer, less invasive surgical techniques are making it possible to treat severe cases of hyperhidrosis by cutting the nerves that supply sweat glands in specific areas. Recent studies show that injecting botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX) - a potent neurotoxin - successfully controls profuse sweating.

The first step is for you to visit your family doctor for a complete evaluation to rule out any medical problem that may be causing you to sweat so profusely.

Answer 3

If your sweating is a problem that is affecting your life then you can get the sweat glands removed (this is the extreme and ultimate action) I would suggest that you see your GP and he might try botox (not sure if it is on the nhs but worth asking) but if this isnt an option stress how bad it is to your doctor and dont be brushed off by excuses from them. If you have a problem that is determental to you its their duty to do something about it.
