Probably: Hyperhidrosis can often be controlled.There are OTC and prescription antiperspirants. Meanwhile, ventilate your feet, wear absorbent socks.

Moist socks: This is a distinct possibility. As stated , changing socks may help . If it does - voila ! If it doesn't , see your podiatrist for an evaluation - it's the right thing to do .
