I had an operation to stop my hands sweating ,was told small incision above my clavicle,large incision and stitches have a scar one hand dry but now my left side if my head sweats and it drips down my face,at least I could hide my hands much worse to have the head sweat and I have no meds for except a anti perspiration roll on which is useless for my head.

Oh that’s awful to go through all of that and then not get the results you were looking for. Thank you for sharing :)

Face and scalp is my issue. It’s embarrassing . I started getting Botox for migraines and it actually helps the sweating. If you go to the drug maker website they have a savings program so my Botox is free. Give it a try

In regards to the Botox. I had this done first but the results only lasted for one month and the NHS only offer one treatment a year so wasn’t any good for me sadly.

I’m not sure of the actual name but basically I had an operation where they collapsed my lung to cut something which causes you to sweat? It was a looooong time ago and he only did one side in case I wasn’t happy with the result - which I wasn’t as he stopped my hand from sweating but not my armpit which is what I needed. Now I can’t grip things as have no hand sweat and I still have excessive underarm sweat - more than before in fact as well as the additional facial sweating.
