Baby is seven months old, why are the palms and soles of the hands and feet hot?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Infants and young children often have fever in their hands, feet, and palms, which is commonly caused by spleen deficiency due to malnutrition. The reasons for this are primarily irregular eating habits, such as overeating or eating at irregular times. If this continues for a long time, it can damage the spleen and stomach functions, leading to impaired digestion and absorption, forming stagnation. Over time, the body cannot absorb the essential nutrients from food, resulting in malnutrition and fever.
