Are you finding it difficult to even walk with proper shoes and a cotton socks? This can happen if you are suffering from excessive sweating in your feet.
The only way to get relief is to go for plantar hyperhidrosis treatment.
Simple remedies that are based on aluminum chloride based products can be useful only if the severity of your problem is mild.
This problem can become a huge embarrassment especially if you have to change your socks very often during the day.
Most of the times this problem will also result in a bad odor from your feet.
Shoes with proper air circulation may only help to a limited extent.
Fortunately now it is possible to block the sweat glands in your feet so that you can lead normal day to day life.

In this technique your feet will be immersed in a tray having water with some salts.
