What is fear of cold?
I am afraid of heat in summer and cold in winter. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, this is a typical manifestation of yang deficiency accompanied by deficiency of both qi and blood. On this issue, women are more common.

Yang deficiency also has these manifestations:

General symptoms: fear of cold, cold limbs; Grains don't melt (undigested food is mixed in the stool); Lack of energy; The tongue is light and fat, or has teeth marks.

Specific organ syndrome:

Yang deficiency can be accompanied by some organ manifestations, such as:

Heart-yang deficiency, accompanied by chest tightness, insomnia, dreaminess, irritability, spontaneous sweating fatigue, pale face and other manifestations.

Deficiency of liver yang, accompanied by dizziness, female breast pain, less abdominal cold pain, male impotence, lassitude, depression and other manifestations.

Spleen-yang deficiency, accompanied by loss of appetite, nausea and retching, loose stool, abdominal pain and abdominal distension, and aversion to warm pressure. Kidney-yang deficiency, accompanied by soreness of waist and knees, impotence and premature ejaculation, infertility due to palace cold, etc.

Deficiency of lung yang is accompanied by shortness of breath, fatigue, low voice, laziness, spontaneous sweating, easy catching a cold, mental fatigue and other manifestations.

Manifestations of deficiency of both qi and blood:

Fatigue, shortness of breath, laziness, pale or sallow complexion, dizziness, pale labial nail, palpitation and insomnia, pale tongue and weak pulse are common syndromes.

First of all, you should check yourself whether you belong to the above situation, or it is better to find a professional Chinese medicine doctor for diagnosis.

Modern medical analysis shows that there is something wrong with blood circulation, especially the blood circulation on the body surface.

Further analysis, there may be the following reasons: 1, women's metabolic rate itself is low, if the amount of exercise is small, the generation of heat will be reduced, coupled with poor blood circulation in the whole body or local areas, resulting in poor heat exchange between the body surface and the whole body, which will lead to cold hands and feet in winter and fever in summer.

2, the role of female estrogen will convert the body's heat into fat and store it under the skin, so the hormone level also directly affects the conversion of heat, which will also lead some women to be afraid of cold and heat, and will also cause some gynecological and even reproductive system diseases.

3, iron deficiency anemia, foreign research shows that those who have low tolerance to cold or heat, the blood iron content is insufficient, and often accompanied by iron deficiency anemia, such women usually relieve a lot of symptoms after iron supplementation.

It can be clearly seen that, in fact, the interpretation of this problem by Chinese medicine and western medicine is consistent at a deep level. So the reason is basically the same after conditioning.

How to recuperate?

1, exercise conditioning

The less exercise, the easier it is to yang deficiency, that is, the worse the body surface circulation. Proper exercise can not only solve the problem of cold limbs or fever, but also improve the problems of spleen and stomach transport, mental fatigue, mental depression and so on.

2, diet conditioning

For yang deficiency, you can eat more mutton, dog meat, chicken, leek, perilla, medlar, yam, walnuts and other ingredients, and should not eat cold, bitter and sticky food. In addition, if there is no doctor's definite diagnosis, it is not recommended that you use some traditional Chinese medicines with greater aphrodisiac effect.

For people with deficiency of both qi and blood, you can often eat longan meat, pig liver and so on. Or you can soak Radix Codonopsis, Radix Panacis Quinquefolii, Radix Astragali and Fructus Jujubae in water.

3, life conditioning

Get more sunshine and change clothes according to the change of ambient temperature.

Rome was not built in a day, and it is not a day or two to recuperate. Need to warm up slowly, taking into account other aspects of the body, it is best to have professional Chinese medicine guidance.
