extremely sweaty feet

I met a guy the other day who haven't warn shoes for the last 20 years, he claims he's super healthy as a result.
Threw corporate jobs,getting married, dans, kerk en werk, he's even been in court without any shoes. He got his doctor to write him a letter that he can't wear shoes for medical reasons.
 
Would you say you're healthy and that you manage your stress?

I had pretty bad hyperhidrosis for a long time that completely went away in the couple months I've been exercising regularly, intermittent fasting and eating a healthy keto diet.

Way too much effort. Easier to just go for the operation, and cheaper too in the long run.

If it's a medical condition, all you're doing is treating the symptoms and not fixing the problem...

Didn’t you get compensatory swearing elsewhere?
Had a friend who had the op and though his hands are dry m, now he sweats in the groin area and looks like he peed in his pants.

My mum's did at the time. Mine does now. You need to get it diagnosed and have the doctor motivate that it's affecting your ability to function normally.

Not really. Mainly on very hot days, my back and underarms - but that can be managed and it would be hot enough to affect pretty much anyone...
 
Do you wash your feet properly? Serious question, As in soak, scrub off dead skin etc?
There was a stage in my late teans when I had very swetty arm pits and I was sometimes smelley as a result. I tried different roll ons, tried different soap etc. Eventually don't remember how or why, I started paying attention to the way I wash when showering. Realised that the couple passes with the soapey wash cloth doesn't cut it. I then got a scrubbing thing like a hard spundge which actually takes off dead skin and can hurt especially in the beginning and it did the trick. The heavy swetting eventually stopped and haven't returned for over 10 years.

Hi everyone

I suffer from extremely sweaty feet which can smell at times... and I just want to know who else has this issue and what do you do to stop it or prevent it??

as I use non nylon socks and use powder in my shoes and socks and always air out shoes and rotate them every day.

any suggestions or advice be highly appreciated.

You have a few natural options that actually work.

Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar. Buy a foot spa and soak your feet in ACV a few times a week. ACV is very helpful in general. It will kill the fungus and bacteria. Search Youtube for a ACV soak.

Mix organic/unfiltered coconut oil with about 15 drops of Tea tree oil. Oregano oil apparently works aswell. Apply before bed on your feet and between toes. Do not wear socks, allow it to dry naturally overnight. Coconut oil will kill fungus and tea tree will kill bacteria.

Try to buy a natural foot powder. The crap you get from clicks etc has ingredients linked to cancer etc.

Edit : always dry between your toes after showering.

Soak your feet in black tea. It is probably the most cost effective method. [video=youtube_share;Z4saRSy257Y]https://youtu.be/Z4saRSy257Y[/video]
 
Try hot yoga. If your sweating is linked to anxiety this will help. You will sweat out toxins and be healthier in general. It seemed happy clappy to me in the beginning. I was stubborn but yoga definitely helped me with anxiety.
 
So the excessive heat in CT the past few days has caused very sweaty hands (not feet).

Not sure if there are other okes with similar sentiments.

The mountains of guilt that you and your Ford have amassed over the combined years of your existence will usually trigger deep panic and profuse sweating whenever the temperature of the earth's crust brings Hell to mind ...
 
Drink more water. It helps with all body odors because it flushes toxins.
 
How the hell do feet sweat? :oops:

Never heard of that before, and I was in the army and we got drilled hard everyday in the heat (no not like that)

I hike most weekends in the mountains and only use the cheapest socks I can buy, usually 60 bux for a pair of 3 that lasts about 5 years

Sweaty feet???????

Even in the coldest winter, I can sit still with thin socks and shoes and am fine. I walk for 5 minutes - sweaty feet. The office environment is pretty laid back, so flipflops meant I rarely wore shoes when it was hot. Now with working from home I wear shoes and socks even less.

Socks though.... nylon is terrible. Cotton or better.
 
I thought all socks were cotton
I will be more careful in the future
Dont want nylon socks making feet stinky
Had that decades ago, I had actually forgotten about that until now
