My son has been an above knee amputee for almost six years now and has had a problem with excessive sweating with his residual leg. Seems to have gotten worse over the last couple of years. We have tried all of the different anti-perspirants, liners and socks and nothing seems to help. When it is warm out and he has to walk alot, his leg sweats so much he has to stop and take it off and empty out the liner and dry it off a few times.
Now that he has just started to feel more comfortable with himself and is beginning to date, he is afraid this will cause problems with him dating.
He has mentioned Botox injections and was wondering if anyone has had that procedure done or knows of something that would help. Thank you, Andrea
