What's with the hot feet?

Foot fever is caused by deficiency of kidney yin and excessive fire due to yin deficiency, and may also be accompanied by symptoms such as palm fever and upset, which is called five upset fever in Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that yin and yang of human body are relatively balanced, and kidney yin is the basis of body fluid, so if body fluid is insufficient or kidney yin is deficient, yin deficiency and fire may occur. The foot center is at the end of the human body, where the yin and yang of the human body exchange with each other. Therefore, once the body's vaginal fluid is insufficient, the feet or palms will be prone to fever, and even serious symptoms such as upset and heart fever will appear, which is what Chinese medicine calls "five upset fever".

Therefore, this situation is mainly treated by nourishing liver and kidney, nourishing yin and clearing heat, and can be treated with Baizhi Dihuang Pill. On the other hand, considering the damp-heat bet, it may be due to the high humidity, stagnation of heat, or overeating some fat, sweet, greasy and spicy products, or warming drugs, so this situation is mainly based on clearing damp-heat, which can be adjusted by Simiao Pill. Or you can choose Sanwu Huangling Decoction in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber for conditioning. Damp-heat betting is generally more common in young patients or people with better physique. This situation is mainly treated by clearing away heat and promoting diuresis, and Simiao Pill, a Chinese patent medicine, can regulate it.

In addition, for some young women, there will be symptoms of hot hands and feet in summer and cold hands and feet in winter. This condition is considered as yang deficiency. Here, I want to mention a concept. When the yang is sufficient, its convergence will be strong. When the yang is weak, its convergence will be weakened and some yang will float outside. In summer, the yang will conform to the weather and reach the human body surface. Under normal circumstances, if the human body has sufficient yang, the convergence of yang will be stronger, and the yang floating on the body surface will not be too much, so the human body will feel warm. If the yang is weak, the yang floating on the body surface will increase, while the palms and soles are in a shady position relative to the human body, so the hands and feet are hotter.
