The reasons why the palms and soles of the feet become hot and watery all year round

Many women get tired easily in the summer. They feel no energy all day long, have a loss of appetite, and are accompanied by dizziness and palpitation. The most uncomfortable thing is not just this, but mainly Tianyi When you are hot, your face will be red, and the soles of your hands and feet will be very hot, and you always want to put them on cold objects. Some people will develop localized erythema and itching. But such beauties often have cold hands and feet in winter and scalding hands in summer, so that no one wants to touch their hands. They are often called "cold-blooded animals", which is really unpleasant!

In fact, the main reason why such women are defined as "cold-blooded animals" is that their body temperature changes with changes in the outside temperature. A normal person's body temperature, hands and feet should be warm in winter and cool in summer. The main reason why these women have "temperature change" is "blood deficiency".

Why do people with "blood deficiency" have cold winters and hot summers? The constant circulation of our body temperature is achieved by the continuous circulation of blood. When people are "blood deficient", because there is less blood in winter, blood circulation to the extremities of the limbs will be very slow and the amount will be reduced, so the hands and feet will not get enough blood, and they will not get the benefits brought by the blood. Because of the warmth of heat, your hands and feet will be cold in winter; in summer, as the temperature rises, the body temperature will also rise. The reason why the human body maintains a constant body temperature is because the blood brings the heat in the body to the surface of the skin. Heat is dissipated in the form of sweat or breathing, but for people with "blood deficiency", the circulation speed of the limbs is still slow, and the blood cannot reach here quickly, taking away the heat from the hands and feet, so it will cause heat in the hands and feet.

Some people experience dryness in the soles of their hands and feet, which makes them feel dry and uncomfortable. This situation is usually caused by internal heat caused by yin deficiency. For such people, I recommend soaking wolfberry, chrysanthemum, and Ophiopogon japonicus in water for ten yuan each a day. They should eat less spicy and hot food.

Some people suffer from dampness and heat and sweat. Such people often have dampness and heat in the spleen and stomach. I recommend using boiled barley rice and red bean porridge, and try to eat as little raw and cold food as possible, as well as less fruit.

If you can persist for a period of time, you will have more energy and the dizziness will quietly go away from you! Your symptoms were diagnosed by traditional Chinese medicine as deficiency of qi in the past, but now you have troubles and fever. You can take the traditional Chinese medicine 'Jiawei Dibai Dihuang Wan' to treat: 12 grams of Baiwei, 12 grams of Digupi, 6 Anemarrhena, 6 Cortex Phellodendron, 6 Cornus officinalis, 6 Rehmannia glutinosa, yam. 6.

Sweating hands are different from sweating in other parts of the body.

Other parts sweat because of the heat. The hotter the body, the more it sweats.

Sweaty palms are related to physical fitness, endocrine, etc. For a healthy person, even if the whole body is sweating, the palms of the hands should be dry. People whose hands often sweat often have no sweat on their body, but their palms are full of cold sweat and feel cold. Some people’s hands get sweatier as winter comes. Sweaty palms are a sign of weak constitution. If you are also afraid of the cold and your hands and feet are cold in winter, you should be right. Eat more warm and nourishing foods to condition your body, and exercise more to speed up blood circulation and promote metabolism, which should have good results.

Spontaneous sweating

Frequent sweating is not caused by taking diaphoretic drugs and other irritating factors in hot weather, which is called "spontaneous sweating". sweat".

It is more common in children with rickets and patients with hyperthyroidism.

Night sweats

Sweating occurs when you fall asleep and stops when you wake up. Night sweats are mostly caused by yin deficiency. Yin deficiency results in hyperactive yang, yin does not control yang, and body fluids follow the fluid into sweat, so they are often accompanied by symptoms such as five heart upsets, heat, insomnia, and dryness of the mouth and throat. Commonly seen in patients in the infiltrative stage of pulmonary tuberculosis.

War sweat

That is, sweating after trembling all over the body, which is a manifestation of the struggle between good and evil in the process of febrile STD. For example, after sweating, the fever subsides and the pulse is quiet and the body is cool, which means that the evil spirits have been eliminated and the vitality has been restored, which is a good sign. If the limbs feel cold and irritable after sweating, it means that righteousness cannot overcome evil. If righteousness decreases as the body becomes weak, it is a sign of critical illness.

However, children often sweat on their heads when sleeping. If there are no other symptoms, it is not a symptom of the disease.
