Clammy sweaty hands and feet. Sweating of the hands and feet is usually the manifestation of steaming of spleen-stomach dampness out to the extremities. If the hearts of the soles and palms are hot, it is attributable to yīn depletion and blood vacuity. If the extremities are cold, it is ascribed to insufficiency of center yáng.
Medicinal therapy: Yīn-blood vacuity is treated with Four Agents Decoction (四物汤sì wù tāng) or Ophiopogon and Rehmannia Pill (麦味地黄丸mài wèi dì huáng wán), whereas insufficiency of center yáng is treated with Center-Rectifying Decoction (理中汤lǐ zhōng tāng) plus mume (Mume Fructus, 乌梅wū méi). If the condition persists, use Perfect Major Supplementation Decoction (十全大补汤shí quán dà bǔ tāng) plus schisandra (Schisandrae Fructus, 五味子wǔ wèi zǐ). Topical: For sweating hands, decoct astragalus (Astragali Radix, 黄芪huáng qí) 30 g, pueraria (Puerariae Radix, 葛根gé gēn) 30 g, schizonepeta (Schizonepetae Herba, 荆芥jīng jiè) 9 g, and saposhnikovia (Saposhnikoviae Radix, 防风fáng fēng) 9g as a warm wash. For sweating feet, decoct alum (Alumen, 白矾bái fán) 15g and pueraria (Puerariae Radix, 葛根gé gēn) 15g as a foot bath.
