There are several treatment options available for the same- 1) apply aluminium hexahydrate lotion over your soles in night and wash it the next day. Do it for a week and then use it once in a week. It is available in the market as aldry lotion. 2) you can also go for formalin 1 percent soaks for feet twice in a day but it is less effective than aldry lotion. 2) there are several other treatment options like botox injections, iontophoresis or surgical methods to be tried if sweating is too severe. 3) as stress anxiety increases sweating try and remain stress free. 4) wear cotton socks and well ventilated foot wears.
