Question

Can a child with dry and hot palms take Astragalus, Dendrobium, and Hawthorn Granules?

Answer

Dry and hot palms in children may be due to internal heat or indigestion. It is recommended to reduce the intake of greasy foods such as fried foods, meats, and shellfish, and to increase the consumption of water and vegetables and fruits. You can give the child some traditional Chinese medicine to aid digestion and reduce fire, such as honeysuckle dew and mung bean soup, to promote metabolism and excretion. At the same time, pay attention to observe any changes in the child’s symptoms. If the situation does not improve, seek medical attention promptly.
