Winter has really come. It is difficult to keep your hands and feet warm when the weather is cold, which is a common problem for many people. Is there any way to improve this situation? "Generally speaking, cold hands and feet are mainly due to weak yang or insufficient blood, so women are more likely to appear. If you just have cold hands and feet, you can relieve them by sunbathing and eating. However, if you have other obvious discomfort, you should seek medical advice promptly. " Dr Liu Yang from Beijing University of Chinese Medicine said. Yang deficiency and qi and blood deficiency can lead to cold hands and feet. In fact, cold hands and feet have a certain relationship with people's physique. For example, yang deficiency, the so-called yang, refers to a substance that has the functions of promoting metabolism, warming whole body tissues, and resisting external evils. The limbs are the ends of all yang, and they usually rely on yang to keep warm. When the yang drops and the limbs cannot be warmed, the limbs are cold. Lack of qi and blood will make your hands and feet cold, because qi has the function of promoting blood circulation and warming your body. Besides, some people get nervous easily. When you are in a hurry, you will be nervous, unstable and cold. If you want to distinguish between cold hands and feet caused by yang deficiency and deficiency of qi and blood, you should look at the auxiliary symptoms. "Generally speaking, people with weak yang are often accompanied by spleen and stomach discomfort. For example, if the stomach is afraid of being cold or eating something cold, it will be easy to have loose bowels, and some will be weak in the waist and knees. People with insufficient qi and blood are often accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, listlessness and chest tightness. " Dr. Liu Yang pointed out that the real yang is weak, so it is ok to use drugs such as Radix Astragali and Radix Angelicae Sinensis at this time. But from the clinical point of view, it is more because the qi and blood in the body are blocked, and the qi and blood can not reach the end of the fourth year. At this time, cold hands and feet are not a supplementary problem. Symptomatic treatment is to make her qi flow smoothly, and some drugs such as Chaihu Shugan can be used, and the effect will be better. If you don't understand this truth, just fill it out, and she will come up as soon as she fills the fire. Before her hands and feet were warm, her mouth was soaked through. There are many ways to adjust the cold weather and cold hands and feet. In addition to cold hands and feet, if there are other obvious discomforts, it is best to see a doctor after a clear diagnosis and comprehensively adjust your body. If your hands and feet are just cold, you may wish to make the following adjustments. 1, bask on your back every noon. Many people may say that this is not simple, but it is exquisite. "Generally speaking, to bask in the back, the front is yin, the back is yang, and the sun be the spirit should be filled in the back. In autumn and winter, the sunshine is the most abundant at noon. I feel this warmth calmly, feeling the hot air entering my body, and my body is driven by this warm firepower. " Dr Liu Yang said. 2, diet-drink some cistanche porridge for yang deficiency From the perspective of Chinese medicine, medicine is the best way to treat diseases, food is the best way to support people, and medicine is in food, which is most suitable for conditioning physical weakness.
