Patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia may have fever in the palms of their hands. However, this symptom is not the main sign of the patient and cannot be used as a diagnostic condition. In addition, fever in the palms of the hands can also be present in people with heat evidence in the liver and heart meridians. However, when a patient has a history of relevant exposure and neoplastic pneumonia is suspected, prompt medical attention for nucleic acid testing can be sought.
