No body's perfect but we have help

DO you have a health condition that leaves you feeling awkward?

- 

A new report by digital healthcare provider Voy found that 82% of Brits are embarrassed by their own bodies, with two in five never having spoken to anyone about their concerns.But which health problems leave us feeling red-faced?

Here JAMES MOORE looks at some conditions that make people feel uneasy...

What: Hyperhidrosis

Half of blokes say they find excessive sweating makes them feel socially awkward. It’s called hyperhidrosis when you sweat even when your body doesn’t need to cool down. It often affects the hands and feet particularly.

It's worth seeing your GP to see if it’s caused by an underlying condition. If it persists, hyperhidrosis can be treated with medicines as well as a procedure using an electric current, Botox injections and, in some cases, even surgery to remove sweat glands.

What: Halitosis

It’s estimated that regular bad breath affects one in four people and one study found that 8% of us avoid socialising because of the way our breath pongs.
