Do you face the problem of hyperhidrosis? Before answering this, let us first understand what hyperhidrosis means.

Hyperhidrosis is a common condition in which a person sweats excessively. Sweating may affect the whole body or only affect certain areas. Commonly affected areas include the armpits and palms of your hands.

It is often observed that your performance can get hampered when sweat accumulates on the palm of your hands while playing a sport, especially those requiring you to hold sporting equipment like a bat or a racquet. The sweat on your palms can make you lose the grip or hold of your sporting equipment, eventually affecting your game. While sweat is an inevitable part of any sport, there are ways to keep this at bay while enjoying a good game of play.

So, how can you prevent the sweat from accumulating on your palms, or how can you keep your palms nice and dry? Here are a few tips for you:

Wear a hand grip cream or GripStrong cream: Hand grip or GripStrong cream, also known as antiperspirant cream, is a blessing for all those who sweat profusely while playing any sport. This cream is advantageous because it forms a dry barrier over the skin to prevent sweat from accumulating on the palm. The cream evaporates quickly and deposits microscopic silica particles on the skin. These particles combine with natural oils in the skin to form a fine-grade, sandpaper-like moisture barrier on the player's hands. It temporarily blocks your sweat glands and keeps sweat from reaching your skin's surface. Once you have applied it, give it another 30 seconds to absorb into your skin. This aggressive non-slip formulation significantly increases the friction between the players' hands and their sporting equipment like racquets, bats, dumbbells, etc., thus effectively enhancing grip. This cream is excellent for the hands and is the perfect, non-invasive solution for anyone with excessively sweaty palms.

Stay hydrated: You can avoid excess sweating by drinking lots of water throughout the day. Despite what you might think, drinking water does not cause excess sweating; dehydration does. Drinking water helps keep you cool while it reduces your core body temperature. 

Always keep a cloth or towel with you: Keeping a cloth or towel with you always ensures you will always be ready when you start sweating intensely.
