10 RSD Symptoms (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy)
Symptom #5: Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis refers to the condition where there is abnormally excessive sweating than those needed for body temperature regulation. It can negatively impact the quality of life from a social, emotional, and psychological perspective. It can be localized or generalized.
Some of the most active regions of perspiration are the feet, hands, facial area, and groin due to the higher number of sweat glands. Localized sweating is known as primary hyperhidrosis while generalized sweating is also known as secondary hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis may occur in reflex sympathetic dystrophy.
