Firstly, I apologise if this new thread is breaching any rules, like if it's a repost of someone's previous question(s). However, I do have some questions about iontophoresis, which I have been undergoing now for 3 days for about 25 minutes each time (12-ish mins before switching hands around) on a home-made device, going on 4 days on Sunday. I appreciate the time anyone takes to read them.
1) Is it normal for me to get only 10-20 minutes relief from sweat, before it returns? For instance, as I type this, my hands are starting to sweat, and I only finished about 20 mins ago.
2) Should I avoid washing my hands or making contact with water or anything after treatments?
3) After how many treatments is it usually before the symptoms go away for full days?
4) Should I buy a 'proper' device rather than use my home-made one (it consists of two 6V batteries and two foil trays)?
5) Does anyone else experience a stiffening of their wrists during the process? This happened to me today; I was initially startled, but just continued on because it wasn't painful and I really hate having sweaty hands.
Thanks for taking the time to read my questions, and I look forward to any replies.
