Sweating excessively on hands, armpits, buttocks, and thighs is gradually worsening. What methods can permanently cure this?

Patient's question:

13-year-old girl, weighing 55 kg, height 156 cm, has had sweaty hands and feet since childhood. Currently, during puberty, her sweating has worsened in the hands, feet, armpits, buttocks, and thighs. It is also severe in winter, and even more so when it's hot, severely affecting her daily life and studies. Her overall physical condition is otherwise good.

Doctor's answer:

1. Take sedative drugs to avoid mental tension and emotional excitement;
2. Reduce sweat secretion by taking anticholinergic drugs, traditional Chinese medicine for strengthening Qi and consolidating the spleen, etc.;
3. Apply astringent drugs locally;
4. Change socks frequently and wear breathable and water-absorbent shoes. The current definitive treatment for hyperhidrosis of the hands, feet, and armpits is the injection of antiperspirant needles, which generally achieves the goal of curing hyperhidrosis.
