What to do if you can’t sleep with hot feet

According to Chinese medicine practitioners, heat in the soles of the feet and inability to sleep may be caused by heart-kidney dysfunction (heart fire, kidney yin deficiency, dysfunction of the physiological functions of the heart and kidneys), which can be treated by medications such as the Traffic Heart and Kidney Capsules, dietary and lifestyle adjustments such as taking a walk, and eating fewer cold and raw foods. 1. Medications: if the soles of the feet are hot and you can’t sleep, and if it is accompanied by five heart-heat (heat in the hearts of the hands and feet, and self-consciousness of the heart and chest (irritability and sultriness)), night-sweating (sweating abnormally after going to sleep, and stopping after waking up), lumbar and knee soreness and tenderness (feeling of soreness and tenderness of the lumbar and knee), tinnitus, and heartburn, etc, then consider it to be the result of the heart-kidney disharmony. It can be treated with medicines that have the efficacy of transporting the heart and kidneys, clearing the heart and calming the mind (stabilizing the mind by getting rid of the inner heat), such as Transportation of the Heart and Kidney Capsules. 2. Adjust the diet: heat on the soles of the feet suggests that the heart and kidneys are not intertwined, and the inability to sleep belongs to insomnia. If this symptom occurs, you should take appropriate exercise, such as walking, jogging, etc., and pay attention to regular diet, avoiding cold, greasy, stimulating food. The above prescription needs to be used by the Chinese medicine practitioner after diagnosis, avoid self-medication, so as to avoid adverse consequences.
