My niece suffers from hyperhidrosis. It's a pretty scary thing to have when you're a 13-year old cheerleader. She deals with it as best as she can but just last night we were shopping and she was wearing flats, the poor thing had to ask me to go home because her feet were sweating a lot and it was getting hard to walk. I feel for her because something that gets very little recognition can really interrupt a teenagers life. She is constantly cleaning her hands and feet. Showers and changes more than she should because she feels "dirty".

I really would've appreciated if Anne had mentioned how she controls it, if she does. I've read all the possible treatments and even surgery but I'd like to know someone with personal experience with this.
