ETS Surgery Hyperhidrosis

Essential Palmar Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating of the hands, excessive facial blushing, as well as excessive sweating of the axillae (armpits) and feet, although not life threatening, can lead to significant personal difficulties. Many people with this diagnosis are embarrassed to shake or hold hands; they soak papers at school and often wear gloves or avoid public exposure altogether for fear of embarrassment. They ruin their clothing as well as their shoes. They may be depressed or even considered anti-social.

Most of us have had those sticky, uncomfortable moments when sweat seems to pour out of us. Just imagine living with it on a daily basis. Not only is Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) uncomfortable from a physical standpoint, it can have psychological and social consequences as well. Imagine greeting your new boss with a drenched hand or trying to find a wardrobe dark enough to hide the dampness creeping down your arm.

Anxiety, hormone imbalance, fear, fever, some medications, and stress can all trigger excessive sweating. The latest research shows that Hyperhidrosis may also be hereditary. There are a number of products on the market to help with mild to moderate forms but for the more serious there is a surgical procedure available. Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (ETS) involves going into the chest cavity to destroy a segment of the sympathetic nerve chain. ETS is a serious procedure and shouldn't be considered without consulting a surgeon with vast experience and credentials.
