People with "smelly" feet often feel desperately embarrassed about their condition. In extreme cases, there are specialist operations that can be performed to reduce the sweat build-up that causes the problem (bromhidrosis). However, a number of common-sense methods are often enough to control the problem and the Centre offers a comprehensive treatment programme for the condition.

Examples of self-help measures include using strong deodorants on the feet, placing surgical spirit between the toes, using charcoal insoles, avoiding nylon socks and alternating your shoes as much as possible.
