November is Hyperhidrosis Awareness Month!

Thank you for helping us honor and spread the word about Hyperhidrosis Awareness Month 2022! Your participation during November’s Hyperhidrosis Awareness Month is vital because, together, we can amplify the message that excessive, uncontrollable sweating is a serious medical condition warranting serious attention.

You can help us make sure that everyone knows that there is hope, community, support, and treatment available.

What happens when your body goes haywire creating good stuff in excessive amounts? Often, it’s not pretty.

This year, in honor of Hyperhidrosis Awareness Month, the International Hyperhidrosis Society will explain eight medical issues that are so extra, including:

• Acne
• Impacted ear wax
• Psoriasis
• Hypertrichosis
• Distichiasis
• Hyperdontia
• Hyperhidrosis

Unlike most of the conditions mentioned above, hyperhidrosis is actually not rare – it affects nearly 5% of people. Only acne on this list is more common.
