Compensatory Sweating After ETS

Compensatory sweating means increased sweating in other areas of the body after ETS surgery. It may affect areas such as the back, abdomen, chest, or thighs. In many patients it can be mild and manageable, but severity may vary. This possibility is discussed before surgery so that each patient can make an informed decision.
