Question

What is the reason for a baby’s hands and feet feeling hot when sleeping?

Answer

Without accompanying symptoms, purely hot hands and feet are quite rare in babies. Most of the time, hot hands and feet are accompanied by other unnoticed or seemingly normal symptoms. In traditional Chinese medicine, hand and foot warmth is categorized into two types: food accumulation leading to spleen deficiency and blood deficiency with yin deficiency. In addition to medication, it is also important to pay attention to supplementing with nutrient-rich foods, getting plenty of sunlight, and breathing fresh air to promote the recovery of the constitution.
