Primary hyperhidrosis (PHH) is a disorder of excessive sweating caused by aberrant cholinergic signaling. Sensitive skin (SS) is a condition of subjective cutaneous hyperreactivity to innocuous stimuli, impacting 40% to 70% of the population. SS is exacerbated by sweat, stress, and heat, suggesting that cholinergic stimulation may contribute to SS flares.
