Patients with hyperhidrosis already suffer from the embarrassing issue of excessively sweaty feet, but due to this sweaty, moist environment, the feet are prone to other problematic conditions. Symptoms of untreated hyperhidrosis include:
- An unpleasant odor coming from the feet
- Skin discoloration of the feet
- Chafing of the skin on the feet
- Itching and burning sensation from the feet
- Formation of blisters and cracks on the feet
- Excessive peeling of the skin on the feet
- A higher risk for infections, such as athlete's foot
Our podiatrists can provide in-person treatments, such as Botox injections or laser therapy. These methods will reduce sweating and the laser therapy option will kill off bacteria known to cause fungal infections.
