I want to know if it's painful or dangerous. There is a possibility to hit a nerve on the hand and interfier with hand of feet movement ?
Answer: Botox to the hands dangerous? Painful, yes! Dangerous, it really shouldn't be. Using numbing cream or a cool air blower is really a must for this procedure. It is about 50 needle sticks in a highly innervated (lots and lots of nerve endings) area. As long as the medication is delivered only to the skin and not deep into the muscle of the hands, you shouldn't notice weakness or any other problems with hand movement. It should really stay in the skin (sweat gland) layer only after injecting as long as it is done properly.

Answer: Botox for hand/feet hyperhidrosis Botox is an effective treatment for hyperhidrosis of the hands and feet. It is very safe if performed correctly. Since the injections are placed superficially there is little chance of any adverse effects on nerves and muscles. The treatment is very tolerable since ice, cold air, and topical anesthetic can be used to lessen any discomfort. Please consult a board certified dermatologist experienced in injections of the palms/soles for hyperhidrosis. Best wishes.

Answer: Hyperhidrosis, Excessive Sweating and Pain during treatment -- Botox/Xeomin/Dysport, surgery, oral pills, ice, anesthesia There can be some discomfort, but anesthesia, numbing cream and ice can help relieve discomfort. Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating can be controlled with Botox or clycopyrolate. Multiple areas may require nervous system surgical treatment. Please see an expert for evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer
