Ask HN: How to use a smartphone with palmar hyperhidrosis?
1 point by mtlmtlmtlmtl on March 12, 2023 | hide | past | favorite
I've been suffering secondary hyperhidrosis(excessive sweating, partcularly bad on my palms) due to a recent adjustment in medication that hasn't "settled" yet. This has led to my phone being a nightmare to use. I only have to sweep a few times for false touches to start happening. I constantly have to turn off the screen to wipe it down. As an example I'm writing this on my phone right now and so far I've had to do this 5 times just to be able to type it.

So I'm curious, if anyone struggles with palmar hyperhidrosis, how do you use your phone without losing your minds(up to 7 now)?
