The treatment of hyperhidrosis, generalized or focal is a challenge for both physicians and surgeons. Focal hyperhidrosis--axillary, palmar, plantar, craniofacial--is the most common. Generalized hyperhidrosis is usually secondary to a systemic disorder or may be simply drug induced. Focal hyperhidrosis has its onset in childhood or adolescence and has a dramatic effect on one's quality of life. Medical, surgical, and electrical therapies can be employed to relieve hyperhidrosis in most patients.
A review of the medical and surgical literature was performed to identify the usual causes and remedies for hyperhidrosis.
Specific treatments, medical and surgical are recommended for all affected individuals.
Patients with hyperhidrosis need not suffer in silence. Etiologies can be identified for most. Safe and effective therapeutic options are available.
全身性或局灶性多汗症的治疗对医生和外科医生而言都是一项挑战。局灶性多汗症——腋窝、手掌、足底、头面部多汗——最为常见。全身性多汗症通常继发于全身性疾病,或可能仅仅是药物所致。局灶性多汗症在儿童期或青春期发病,对患者的生活质量有显著影响。大多数患者可采用药物、手术及电疗法来缓解多汗症。
对医学和外科文献进行综述,以确定多汗症的常见病因及治疗方法。
建议对所有患病个体采用特定的药物和手术治疗方法。
多汗症患者无需默默忍受。大多数患者的病因能够得以明确。有安全有效的治疗选择可供使用。
