After the fall, the weather is gradually turning cooler. After a while, it is the peak time of the year when “cold ice palm” and “thousand-year-old cold legs” appear. That said, people with cold hands and feet, from the inside out penetrating the cold, how to cover can not be warm. And the most people are afraid of is, at night when you sleep in the quilt inadvertently reached over to warm the “cold ice palm” or “a thousand years old cold legs”, really let a person can not help but shiver. And women are precisely the main force of such people. Medical case 26-year-old Xiao Yang is a foreign company staff, heavy workload makes her feel tired. Auntie Li, a colleague who is obsessed with Chinese medicine, looked at Xiao Yang’s pale face, touched her hand, and said with surprise: “Xiao Yang, not that Auntie said that you, at your young age, your hand is so icy, and your yang is so weak!” Under the advice of Auntie Li, Xiao Yang insisted on drinking brown sugar and ginger water every day and moxibustion moxibustion Guanyuan point, spontaneously cut off all the cold drinks and fruits, to the “yang deficiency” body to replenish some Yang Qi. However, it did not work out as expected, and Yang’s symptoms did not improve, but instead, her temper got hotter and hotter, and her insomnia worsened. Xiao Yang finally sought the help of a physician, after a look and smell, the doctor told her: “You are not a Yang deficiency, but the heat of the depression, quickly stop the moxibustion and ginger water! Xiao Yang was dumbfounded, I dare say this body for nothing. But she was left with the question, “What is Depressed Heat?”. What is “Depressed Heat”? What is “Depressed Heat”? Many people, like Xiao Yang, are unfamiliar with the term “heat depression”. This time, Dr. Bu Zhengxiang will have a good chat with you about what is “YuHe”. The term “heat” is a specialized term in traditional Chinese medicine, due to the poor operation of the blood and qi, resulting in the closure of the heat in the body of the situation can be called “heat”. Causes of the human body “heat” is more complex, there are two main reasons: 1, due to eating a lot of cold food or medicine. Because of the cold gas has a “collection of attraction and stagnation” characteristics, long-term use of such drugs will lead to the body’s qi and blood flow is blocked, day after day will see the blocked qi and blood in the body “from the yang into fire” and the formation of “depressed heat “2, due to ordinary stress, mood and lead to poor circulation of qi and blood in the body, and ultimately produce the “depressed heat”. In short, the production of heat is inseparable from the “poor circulation of qi and blood”. The manifestation and differentiation of “heat depression” is due to poor circulation of qi and blood, and low temperature will occur in the areas with poor circulation of qi and blood, so “cold hands and feet” is the most common condition of “heat depression”. This is why “cold hands and feet” is the most common condition of the Depressed Heat syndrome. However, the essence of the “Depressed Heat Syndrome” is that the fire-heat qi is closed up in the body and cannot get out, and at the same time, there will be symptoms of fire such as “irritability, insomnia, sleeplessness and dreams, yellow urine, constipation, etc.” Most people usually have the same symptoms as those mentioned in the previous article. Most of the people usually, like Xiao Yang in the previous article, only pay attention to their own cold hands and feet and ignore the phenomenon of their own fire, so they simply and roughly in the “cold hands and feet” and “yang deficiency” between the equator, and for the “heat” and “depression”. The “heat” is ignored. In the end, how to distinguish between “depressed heat” and “Yang deficiency”? In fact, it is very easy to distinguish between “heat depression” and “Yang deficiency”, we may be confused by the many symptoms that the human body shows, but if you carefully observe the tongue of the two types of symptoms, you will find the difference between the two. “Although both depression and heat and yang deficiency are associated with cold hands and feet, the tongues of people with depression and heat are generally reddish, while those of people with yang deficiency are generally reddish, and those of people with yang deficiency are generally reddish. For people with “Yang deficiency”, the tongue is usually light and tender. The tongue is usually reddish for those who are suffering from depression and heat, and light for those who are suffering from Yang deficiency. After learning this tip, don’t fall into the misconception that cold hands and feet are a result of Yang deficiency. The most important thing to remember is to leave the professional work to the professionals, and to consult a doctor if you are not feeling well.
