Nervous sweating is one of those conditions that people take for granted. They consider that because everyone experiences it now and then, it’s not a serious problem for chronic sufferers. However, for some people it’s a constant source of suffering because of the huge impact it can have on a person’s life when is a constant situation. In this article I’m going to be talking about some of the problems that nervous sweating can cause, as well as talking about the drastic measures some people go to dissolve it. Finally I’m going to link to a resource that can help people to sort out another sweating without going to extremes.
Nervous sweating is like Catch-22. A person who suffers from chronic nervous sweating will start sweating the incident may feel any anxiety or worry. This in turn leads to more sweating as they become worried about what people will think. In today’s society, sweating is considered to be a sign of poor hygiene, and people who have heavy sweating problems are often isolated. The fact is, when a person is sweating heavily, it can feed bacteria and generate bad body odours, so it can be unpleasantly be around people who are sweating heavily.
As a result of all of this, sufferers of nervous sweating can feel the need to hide away from others, which can lead to a feeling of isolation. As time passes, this feeling can deepen into serious depression.
As you can see, the impact of the problem can be very drastic, so it’s not very surprising the lengths to which a person will go to try and solve the problem. But because the situation is not thoroughly understood medically, many of these treatments can be quite damaging. For instance, there is surgery that cuts the nerves that control the sweat glands. As you can imagine, this is a very invasive and potentially damaging procedure.
As bad as these solutions can seem, they’re not just harmful, they can even be ineffective. The reason why is because the body will seek to compensate when it is unable to sweat in one area, and will often secretes sweat in different areas of the body. Remember, sweating is a survival activity that lowers the body temperature when it’s too high, and is also used to eliminate toxins from the skin. This is why the body seeks to compensate for an inability to sweat in one area.
For these reasons, I believe it’s far better to use a simple natural solution, at least until the point when medical science better understands the problem of nervous sweating, and can give a real and permanent solution. It’s not that I disagree with Western medicine, it’s just that I know for a fact that until they are able to discover the exact cause of the problem, potentially harmful medical treatments are not warranted. There may be some cases that don’t respond to natural treatments that these are in the minority, and I suppose in those cases medical treatments are better than nothing, but for the rest there are far less painful and far safer treatments that will work.
