Both generalized and segmented (reduced or absent sweating in circumscribed locations) forms of the disease are usually associated with other underlying conditions. 705.0 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.0 contains 5 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.1 Prickly heat 705.1 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.1 contains 9 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.21 Primary focal hyperhidrosis Excessive sweating. In the localized type, the most frequent sites are the palms, soles, axillae, inguinal folds, and the perineal area. Its chief cause is thought to be emotional. Generalized hyperhidrosis may be induced by a hot, humid environment, by fever, or by vigorous exercise. 705.21 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.21 contains 11 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.22 Secondary focal hyperhidrosis 705.22 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.22 contains 7 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.8 Other specified disorders of sweat glands 705.8 is a non-specific code that cannot be used to specify a diagnosis ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.81 Dyshidrosis A recurrent eczematous reaction characterized by the development of vesicular eruptions on the palms and soles, particularly along the sides and between the digits. It is accompanied by pruritus, a burning sensation, and hyperhidrosis. The disease is self-limiting, lasting only a few weeks. 705.81 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.81 contains 8 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.82 Fox-fordyce disease Chronic pruritic disease, usually in women, characterized by small follicular papular eruptions in apocrine areas. It is caused by obstruction and rupture of intraepidermal apocrine ducts. 705.82 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.82 contains 7 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.83 Hidradenitis The inflammation of a sweat gland (usually of the apocrine type). The condition can be idiopathic or occur as a result of or in association with another underlying condition. Neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis is a relatively rare variant that has been reported in patients undergoing chemotherapy, usually for non-Hodgkin lymphomas or leukemic conditions. A chronic suppurative and cicatricial disease of the apocrine glands occurring chiefly in the axillae in women and in the groin and anal regions in men. It is characterized by poral occlusion with secondary bacterial infection, evolving into abscesses which eventually rupture. As the disease becomes chronic, ulcers appear, sinus tracts enlarge, fistulas develop, and fibrosis and scarring become evident. Hormonal mechanisms are expected in its pathogenesis. 705.83 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.83 contains 6 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.89 Other specified disorders of sweat glands 705.89 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.89 contains 19 index entries ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 705.9 Unspecified disorder of sweat glands Diseases of the SWEAT GLANDS. 705.9 is a specific code that can be used to specify a diagnosis 705.9 contains 2 index entries
