Cold hands and feet are mostly yang deficiency. Yang deficiency refers to the body yang deficiency decline, function decline or weakness, metabolic activity decline, low body reactivity, yang heat deficiency pathological phenomenon. When the human body yang deficiency, can not warm limbs, resulting in cold hands and feet phenomenon. The following is a specific analysis. First, yang has warming effect.

Secondly, kidney yang is the root of yang qi in the human body. When yang deficiency occurs, the warming function of the whole body decreases, causing cold hands and feet, often accompanied by soreness of the waist and knees, fear of cold, fatigue, etc. Furthermore, deficiency of spleen yang also affects the distribution of yang qi. Spleen governs transportation and transformation. Spleen yang deficiency can lead to abnormal transportation and transformation function, which can not spread yang qi to limbs well, and then cold hands and feet may occur.
