Stop sweating: Botox injections of the feet have two effects that I am aware of. One they can help reduce excessive sweating of the feet. The other though less common is to try and reduce the progression of a bunion deformity by "paralyzing" one of the muscles responsible for causing the problem.

Sweating relief: Some people have a sweating condition that can affect the hands, feet and armpits called hyperhydrosis. Botox can decrease or eliminate this sweating for several months.
