| | Excessive sweating |
| | Hyperhidrosis can be assessed quantitatively by a technique called gravimetry ie the measurement of sweat in milligram (mg) over a defined period of time (usually one minute). | | | In contrast, no apparent reason can be found for localised sweating, which occurs most commonly in defined body areas such as the armpits (axillae), palms and soles. | | | This procedure, which requires general anaesthesia, is generally done by endoscopy (introducing instruments through the skin via a narrow tube), rather than by opening the chest surgically. |
