In summer, due to yin deficiency and internal heat, hands, feet and heart are hot.
In fact, it is not uncommon for hands and feet to have fever. Some people have hot palms in summer and cold palms in winter. There are also palms and soles that are hot, and they are often annoyed in their hearts, which is particularly easy to lose their temper. There is an explanation in traditional Chinese medicine called "five-upset fever"
"Chinese medicine believes that there are many reasons for fever in hands and feet, among which people with yin deficiency and internal heat are the most common. People who often feel fever in the palms and soles of their feet, if they still have symptoms such as red tongue and little fur, dry mouth and throat, upset and night sweats, are likely to be manifestations of yin deficiency. " Wang Yanyan, Deputy Chief Physician of Endocrinology Department of Yinchuan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, introduced. In Yinchuan, there are not a few people with yin deficiency constitution. They love to eat spicy food and often stay up late, which leads to getting angry. Over time, they will consume yin and form yin deficiency constitution.
How does the person of yin deficiency constitution recuperate in summer? "Some nourishing liquids and sweet, cool and moist foods, such as glutinous rice, lotus root, black fungus, tremella, sugar cane, pear, lily, yam, Ophiopogon japonicus and so on, can be properly added. Avoid spicy food; Eat less warm food, so as not to harm the body's vaginal fluid, such as pepper, garlic, pepper, cinnamon, dried ginger, mutton and so on. " Drinks mainly clear away heat and promote diuresis. People with yin deficiency and internal heat can drink some green tea, lemon juice, mung bean soup, mung bean barley soup and lotus seed malt tea in summer.
For people with yin deficiency constitution, the working environment should try to avoid scorching sun and heat, and don't sweat too much, because sweating too much in summer is easy to consume gas and hurt yin. People with yin deficiency constitution must ensure adequate sleep, stay in a deep sleep state before 23 o'clock, and it is best to rest for 30 minutes at noon, which can protect and nourish the yin in the body. If you don't get enough sleep, you will consume Yin Qi excessively.
People with yin deficiency constitution in summer are full of deficiency fire, mixed with damp heat, such as oil and noodles, which are difficult to get rid of, so they should avoid being attacked by damp evil. Don't blow directly at the electric fan or air conditioner, because the weather is hot, sweat holes are open, and wind, cold and dampness are easy to invade the body.
"In addition, people with insufficient qi and blood and disharmony between camp and health are also prone to palm fever. The most obvious performance is that the palms are hot in summer and the hands and feet are cold in winter. " Wang Yanyan said. This kind of people can stew more soups for enriching blood and benefiting qi, for example, they can cook soup with angelica and astragalus. Reporter Liu Wei
