A member asked:

Does neuropathy cause feet to sweat excessively?

Dr. Lynne Weixel answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Not usually: But that's because a frequent cause of neuropathy is diabetes and that involves a reduction in the ability to sweat. There may be other issues involved for you and your conditions. Discuss this w/ your doctor. There may be a rare side effect of some medication involved. I hope you find a solution.
