My son is thirteen, he is wanting to try my hidrex machine. I have been using it for over two years on my feet with amazing success. I have severe hyperhydrosis, and my son so far only has a mild case much like my father had. His hands do not drip like mine did before ets, but when he writes in school the pencil slides in his hand and paper sometimes gets little wet.
Should he try machine and what times and settings should he do. I am used to doing feet so not sure with hands. I have the PC machine.
Thank you for your help!

Sure, he can use the machine too.
Hand treatment is the same as feet treatment. But since he is starting, set the current to a low level. He has to tell you how he feels the current. Should he not feel anything at all, then you can go a bit higher, and so on. He should only feel a slight tingling sensation, no pain at all! If he feels pain then it is a sign that the current is set too high. He can start with 15 minutes daily.

K thank you! Should I set the pulse current on 50 or another number to start out?

If you have the Hidrex PSP1000, then yes, I would start out with a pulse width of 50%.
