Abstract
|
|
|
Sweating plays an important role in thermoregulation and can be disturbed by various disorders that include sudomotor excess (hyperhidrosis) and deficiency (hypohidrosis and anhidrosis). Although hyperhidrosis is usually benign, it can be socially troubling or occupationally restrictive. Anhidrosis or hypohidrosis, in contrast, may predispose to medical emergencies, such as hyperthermia, heat stroke, or death. Sweating disorder can signify underlying neurologic or medical disorders.
