Hey this is my first post!!! I brought the Idromed4 machine about 2 weeks ago and I'm very very happy!! My hands have been dry for days now - even in this hot weather which is amazing!
Can anyone tell me if there are any side effects of using the machine long term? It just doesn't sound very healthy passing an electric current through myself every week or so...
It feels really wierd too...is it ok for hands to stop sweating completely...or is it harmful to keep all the water inside??
Thanks for reading!

The sweating/dripping is constant though, and wiping your hands may remove some of the sweat on the surface for a few seconds but the skin stays very moist or clammy, that makes it feel really uncomfortable.

As for side effects, I don't think there are any. You may get some dry skin on your hands but cream solves that.
