Hyperhidrosis - Feet
Posted by dparrish59 to Disease/Illness, Nov 22, 2009 7:34pm
The condition that I am writing you about is a very severe foot problem, I have been dealin with this for several years now. I am 28 year old male I work on my feets 12 hours a day.
When I take my boots off at the end of the day --- it is BAD .. I have a Cedar Box that I had made by my dad -- when I take my socks off they go straight into that box and that is how they are transported to the washer machine. Then the box is put out side to air for the day. This excessive sweating of my feet has caused my skin to peel off in layers of skins. This is a very painful condition, I have insurance and doctors really know what the hell to do !!!
DOCTORS CAN YOU HELP ?????? In DISPERATELY in NEED of HELP !!! Before I can't walk !!!

My husband was afflicted by this and still is to much less extent. He went to a podiatrist who had him soak his feet for several minutes a day in formaldehyde. This was prescribed for him as it's not so easy to get at the supermarket. This treatment made a marked difference to the incredible stench that used to emit from my husband's feet and boots. He still has overproductive sweat glands but it is way better since his treatments. We can bear to have him take his shoes off in the house and do not have to have his shoes outside all night.

How about a show for people who CAN'T sweat? My daughter is a prisoner in our home for half the year, as she cannot go out in hot weather or intense sun because she cannot sweat. We've been trotted from specialist to specialist for over a decade and nobody can tell us what's going on.
