Dr. Zhao Lianli
Cold, sweaty feet may result from excessive mental stress or kidney yang deficiency. Additionally, exposure to wind-cold pathogens can also cause cold, sweaty feet. Patients are advised to maintain a relaxed and cheerful mood and avoid feelings of loneliness or tension. If the condition is due to kidney yang deficiency, consuming kidney-tonifying foods may be beneficial.
