Hypothalamic hyperhidrosis

Introduction

Introduction to hypothalamic hyperhidrosis The hypothalamus is the main autonomic nerve center in the central nervous system, regulating the regulation of sweating. Hypothalamichyperhidrosis is commonly seen in several diseases: 1. Hodgkin'disease: characterized by fever, night sweats, and weight loss triads, night sweats, and sudden body temperature during sleep Falling and a lot of night sweats, there will be volatility in the future. 2. Diabetes mellitus: There are 3 types: 1 excessive sweating during the onset of severe hypoglycemia; 2 upper body compensatory hyperhidrosis when peripheral neuropathy occurs, no sweat in the lower body; 3 mainly occurs in the face The taste of the neck is sweaty. 3. Pressure and postural hyperhidrosis: refers to the sweating reaction caused by one body compression when the position changes and the lateral position. 4. Idiopathicunilateralcirculscribed hyperhidrosis: Yes A paroxysmal localized sweating that is common in the face or upper extremities. Both hot spirit and taste stimulation can trigger, but the former is more common and the sweating mechanism is unknown. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.005%-0.008% Susceptible people: no specific population Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: frostbite folliculitis

Cause

Causes of hypothalamic hyperhidrosis

Disease factors (35%):

Hodgkin's disease has a sudden drop in body temperature and a lot of night sweats during sleep. Diabetic hyperhidrosis is a serious episode of hypoglycemia when peripheral neuropathy occurs.

Physical factors (25%):

Stress and orthostatic hyperhidrosis changes when the body is under pressure.

Disease factors (15%):

Idiopathic unilateral localized hyperhidrosis fever, mental and taste stimuli.

Pathogenesis

The pathogenesis is still not clear, and the mechanism of sweating is unknown.

Prevention

Hypothalamic hyperhidrosis prevention

There is no effective preventive measure for this disease. Early detection and early diagnosis are the key to the prevention and treatment of this disease.

Complication

Hypothalamic hyperhidrosis complications Complications, frostbite folliculitis

The skin of the systemic hyperhidrosis is often moist, and there is paroxysmal sweating. Local hyperhidrosis is common in the palms, ankles, underarms, followed by the tip of the nose, forehead, genitals, etc. Often accompanied by peripheral blood circulation dysfunction, such as wet skin of hands and feet, bruising or pale, prone to frostbite, etc., sweating of the feet due to poor evaporation of sweat, causing the skin of the soles of the skin to be immersed, often accompanied by foot odor, axillary and genital When sweating, because the skin of the part is thin and tender, it is often wet and rubbed, and it is easy to cause rubbing erythema, accompanied by folliculitis, phlegm and so on.

Symptom

Hyperthalamic hyperhidrosis symptoms Common symptoms Hyperhidrosis, night sweats, upper body, heat irritating, sweaty face, neck, taste, sweating, upper body, compensatory hyperhidrosis, sympathetic nerve, high tension, urinary weight, weight loss, persistent fever, sleeping, sweating

Hypothalamic hyperhidrosis is commonly seen in several diseases.

1. Hodgkin'disease: characterized by fever, night sweats and weight loss triad, night sweats, sudden drop in body temperature and a lot of night sweats during sleep, and fluctuating heat in the future.

2. Diabetes mellitus: There are 3 types: 1 excessive sweating during the onset of severe hypoglycemia; 2 upper body compensatory hyperhidrosis when peripheral neuropathy occurs, no sweat in the lower body; 3 mainly occurs in Face, the taste of the neck is sweaty.

3. Pressure and postural hyperhidrosis: refers to the sweating reaction caused by body position changes and lateral compression of one side of the body.

4. Idiopathic unilateral circumscribed hyperhidrosis: is a kind of episodic local sweating that is common in the face or upper limbs. Heat, spirit and taste stimulation can all trigger, but the former is more See, the sweating mechanism is unknown.

Examine

Examination of hypothalamic hyperhidrosis

There are no special examination methods for this disease, mainly for routine examinations in dermatology and neurology. Most of the head and limb imaging examinations are normal results, and secondary hyperhidrosis has the performance associated with the primary disease. Autonomic nerve function tests have an auxiliary diagnosis and differential significance for hyperhidrosis.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis and diagnosis of hypothalamic hyperhidrosis

Diagnosis can be based on the characteristics of clinical manifestations.
