Patient's question:
The child is 13 years old. In recent years, they have been feeling cold hands and feet and are quite sensitive to cold. They are not very active and often catch minor colds and fevers that don't heal quickly. They want to know what solutions are available for treating cold hands and feet.Doctor's answer:
According to the symptoms, the patient should have kidney Yang deficiency, which is caused by excessive overwork, physical weakness, or insufficient congenital endowment, leading to kidney Yang deficiency. Yang deficiency results in poor nourishment and warmth, as well as endocrine disorders, hence the cold hands and feet, and overall fatigue. It is recommended to take warm-kidney and tonify Yang medications under the guidance of a doctor for treatment. The patient should avoid excessive overexertion in daily life, maintain a regular schedule, and follow a low-salt, low-fat diet.
