We have an awful lot of mosquitoes this year, and they seem to be having a real ‘thing' for me. And my hands. Because my poor sweaty hands are (aside from my head) pretty much the only part of my body sticking out of the covers while I sleep. And to mosquitoes that's a call to feast…
So, I'm using electric devices and mosquito repellants to keep them out, but it doesn't completely work. And of course, mosquitoes in the room are especially drawn to my sweaty hands. What to do? This is really disrupting my standard hyperhidrosis treatment routine…
And to clarify: I've tried applying antiperspirant solution to my hands before I go to sleep, and the little pests still keep biting. The itches and damaged skin then make it painful to keep antiperspirant on, and it's similar with iontophoresis for sweaty hands… I would really like to avoid getting my skin damaged in such a ridiculous way. How do I keep mosquitoes off me? And please don't tell me to eat a lot of garlic…
Is there an antiperspirant that also repels mosquitoes? All that matters is that it can be used to treat or prevent sweaty hands…
