A member asked:

What to do if i have a horrible sweating problem in my feet which causes me to smell horrible what to do?

Sweaty feet: This is a problem know as hyperhydrosis. Your doctor can give you a prescription to help with this. Recent use of Botox has been found to be useful to treat this.
