What is the best procedure for my excessive foot sweating?
Excessive foot sweating or plantar hyperhidrosis usually appears together with palmar hyperhidrosis. Solitary foot sweating without excessive hand sweating can also appear but in a very low percentage of cases. We realized that the thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) does not help very much with excessive foot sweating. Since approximately 2004 Lumbar Sympathectomy has proven to be the best current option to treat patients with severe plantar hyperhidrosis (excessive foot sweating).
