What areas of the body are most often affected by Hyperhidrosis?
When sweating occurs in certain places only, it is known as focal Hyperhidrosis. Most often, focal Hyperhidrosis affects the palms, soles of the feet, underarm and face. Underarm sweating is by far the most common with over 50% of the reported cases. When sweating occurs over the entire body, it is known as generalized Hyperhidrosis, but this is less common.
