New product provides a safe, easy, non-chemical, non-prescription solution for problems caused by perspiration under or between the breasts while it adds cushioning to the most uncomfortable, but necessary, item of women’s clothing - the bra!
The Wick’em Bra Liner, a new bra accessory item developed to be worn inside any existing bra, provides a safe, easy, non-chemical, non-prescription solution for problems caused by perspiration under or between the breasts while it also adds cushioning.
Excessive sweating under and between the breasts and the resulting problems sweat causes is an often unspoken issue that women of all sizes and ages suffer from. While some women experience rashes and irritation, others complain of embarrassing sweat marks on their clothing. Some women just want their bras to be more comfortable! They are tired of the rubbing and chafing they experience from uncomfortable underwires and elastic.
Donna Frye, President of Wick’em LLC and inventor of the bra liner, said, “Although I had discussed my problem with countless doctors over the past 15 years, not one of them offered a solution that worked. Doctors told me that my own painful experience with rashes and irritation caused by under-breast sweat was a common problem. They prescribed various creams and medications, but none of them helped. I finally decided to develop something on my own - for me and for the millions of women like me who have this problem, but don’t talk about it!”
The Wick’em Bra Liner’s patent-pending design features a unique shape that gives maximum protection, maximum flexibility and comfort, yet avoids contact with the more sensitive areas of the breast. A center tab can be flipped up for maximum protection, or flipped down to remain hidden when worn under clothing with lower-cut necklines.
The bra liner is constructed from two types of fabric. The outside is sewn from the same moisture management fabric that is commonly found in today’s best professional athletic wear - a specialized fabric that wicks moisture away from the skin. Soft cotton batting on the inside absorbs excess moisture and adds cushioning to the most uncomfortable, but necessary, item of women’s clothing - the bra!

Study Finds That Patients With Excessive Sweating Condition Are More Likely to Develop Skin Infections
People with the excessive sweating condition known as hyperhidrosis already have to deal with a number of life-inhibiting social issues. Sweaty palms or unsightly underarm stains can make simple tasks such as shaking hands or raising an arm extremely embarrassing. According to a new study, people with primary hyperhidrosis also have a higher risk of developing skin infections. Fortunately for those with the condition, appropriate treatment by a dermatologist can control these issues.
In the study entitled, "Primary hyperhidrosis increases the risk of cutaneous infection: A case-control study of 387 patients," published online in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, dermatologist Hobart W. Walling, MD, PhD, FAAD, who maintains a private practice in Coralville, IA, found that primary hyperhidrosis patients are more prone to skin infections than those without the condition.
Hyperhidrosis is categorized as either primary (not caused by a separate medical condition or medication) or secondary (caused by an underlying medical condition or medication). Primary hyperhidrosis affects nearly 3 percent of the U.S. population. Symptoms of primary hyperhidrosis include excessive sweating that lasts at least six months with at least two of the following additional characteristics: affects both sides of the body equally, occurs at least once weekly, begins at age 25 or younger, ceases during sleep, and has other family members with the condition.
Dr. Walling and a team of researchers collected medical records for 387 patients who had visited the University of Iowa Department of Dermatology and were diagnosed with primary hyperhidrosis. They also collected records for 410 age- and gender-matched patients who visited the same dermatology department during the same time period and were diagnosed with an unrelated condition.
"Many studies have focused on the social and psychological effects associated with hyperhidrosis, but few studies have focused on the medical consequences of the condition," said Dr. Walling. "Our study set out to examine the physical signs and symptoms of primary hyperhidrosis and to determine the condition's relationship to skin infections in the affected areas."
Of the patients with primary hyperhidrosis, almost three-fifths (58.9%) were female and more than two-fifths (41.1%) were male. More than half of the patients (53.4%) experienced hyperhidrosis in one area of the body, while the remaining patients (46.6%) had multiple affected sites. The most frequently affected sites of hyperhidrosis reported by the patients were the soles (50.1%), followed by the palms (45.2%) and the underarms (43.4%). Other areas affected included the face, scalp, groin and torso, and some reported hyperhidrosis throughout the body.
In addition, a number of the primary hyperhidrosis patients (38.6%) gave information regarding factors that aggravated their condition. Patients noted stress, emotion, anxiety or social situations as the most common (56.7%). Some found that heat or humidity worsened their condition (22%), while others denied any aggravating factors (15.3%).
Dr. Walling and his research team examined the medical records of the primary hyperhidrosis patients in search of coexisting skin infections that affected the areas involved by hyperhidrosis. They then compared these results to the patients without hyperhidrosis who had been diagnosed with a skin infection that affected any area of the body.
The overall risk of developing a skin infection caused by bacteria, fungi or viruses was significantly higher for the patients with primary hyperhidrosis than those without (30% of patients with hyperhidrosis developed a skin infection versus 12.0% of those without). In particular, patients with primary hyperhidrosis had a significantly higher risk of developing a fungal infection in the areas affected by hyperhidrosis (12.1%) than the control group (2.7%). Similarly, the risk of bacterial infection was heightened in primary hyperhidrosis patients (5.4%) versus those in the control group (2.2%) as was the overall risk of viral infection (12.4% of patients versus 7.1% of controls). Also of note, an increased association with atopic or eczematous dermatitis was observed in patients with primary hyperhidrosis (9.3%) versus those without (3.4%).
"The patients in the study waited, on average, nearly nine years after experiencing symptoms of hyperhidrosis before they visited a dermatologist," said Dr. Walling. "It is important that patients know that seeking treatment for hyperhidrosis not only will positively impact their quality of life, but it may help prevent skin infections from occurring and deter other associated complications."
Dr. Walling recommends that if you experience excessive sweating over a prolonged period of time or perspiration that is not triggered by obvious factors, you should consult a dermatologist.

Man Discovers Cure for Excessive Sweating
Mike Ramsey, a middle-aged business man from Texas, stumbled upon a simple all-natural treatment for excessive sweating. He explains the process in his book "Stop Sweating and Start Living."
If you suffer from excessive sweating and are considering pursuing treatment, there's a new book available that could save you money and frustration.
Written by Mike Ramsey, who first started suffering from excessive underarm sweat when he was in high school over 20 years ago, the book is entitled, "Stop Sweating and Start Living."
In the book, Ramsey details his battle with excessive sweating, including all of the various treatments that he has tried over the years that didn't work.
"I tried more than a dozen types of antiperspirants," Ramsey said. "I tried applying antiperspirants several times a day. I wore undershirts to soak up the sweat before it reached my outer shirt. When one undershirt wasn't enough, I tried wearing two undershirts. When I was in my car (alone) I would hold up my arms, aligning them with the air conditioner vents, allowing cold air to flow up my sleeve to cool and dry my armpits. When sitting at my desk I tried to keep my arms away from my sides so that my shirt had less contact with my underarms and wouldn't soak in the sweat so quickly. I took showers morning and night. Sometimes I would come home during lunch to shower as well.
"I wore oversized shirts for better ventilation and to keep my underarms from contacting my shirt. (This didn't work because the sweat would just drip down to my sides and create wet marks near my waistline)," Ramsey continued. "I brought clean undershirts to work and changed several times daily. I purchased a device that pushes electric currents through your skin and supposedly stops underarm sweat for a period. I never found out whether it worked or not because it was incredibly uncomfortable to use, and I knew this was not the solution to my problem."
After nothing that he tried worked, Ramsey was about to give up hope when he and his wife attended a fateful seminar on natural health.
"The seminar actually didn't have anything to do with excessive sweating," Ramsey said. "But what the speaker said got me to thinking and soon led to my discovery."
Ramsey's discovery was practical and unique treatment approach that permanently gets rid of a person's excessive underarm sweat problem - naturally and without side effects.
Ramsey's process is made up of three simple steps, takes less than 1 minute a day to complete and relies on readily available and inexpensive products.
Ramsey adds that the process is easy for a person to incorporate into their morning or evening routine, and he says that it will keep a person's underarm sweat problem away for the rest of their life!
