Abstract

E xcessive inappropriate sweating is an acute problem for many individuals, both men and women. Patients troubled with this condition are usually emotionally sensitive and perspire profusely at a slight stimulus. The disorder first appears at puberty, on maturation of the apocrine glands. These patients find their lives deeply affected. They suffer the embarrassment and discomfort of stained clothing and odor. They may be barred from many occupations and social activities. Dermatitis and intertrigo may develop in the chronically damp axilla, even in patients of normal weight and body configuration.
