What is the reason why the body feels hot from time to time?

When we are in a hot environment, our body will feel very hot and we may sweat a lot. There is no need to worry too much about this situation, because it is not a disease but a normal reaction of the body. However, sometimes some friends feel that their body is getting hot and they are always sweating. So what is the reason for the body getting hot from time to time?

Asthenia of renal yin, a type of kidney deficiency, is a term in traditional Chinese medicine that refers to the syndrome of insufficient yin fluid in the kidneys, also known as insufficient kidney water or insufficient true yin. It is a syndrome caused by deficiency of kidney yin, lack of nourishment and endogenous heat, which is called kidney yin deficiency syndrome in clinical Chinese medicine. It is mostly caused by long-term illness, insufficient constitution, excessive sexual intercourse, or excessive intake of warm, dry and yin-destroying foods. Kidney Yin takes the essence of the kidney as its material basis, and plays a role in nourishing and moistening various organs and tissues. It interacts with Kidney Yang and together they are the basis of human life activities. If the kidney yin is sufficient, the yin of the whole body will be full; if the kidney yin is weak, the yin of the whole body will be weak; if the kidney yin is lost, the yin of the whole body will be lost and human life will cease. If the kidney yin is insufficient, the secretion of body fluid will decrease, which manifests as yin deficiency, internal heat and yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity. Symptoms include soreness and pain in the waist and knees, dizziness, tinnitus, insomnia, restlessness, hot flashes and night sweats, spermatorrhea and premature ejaculation, dry throat and red cheeks, red tongue with little fluid and no coating, and a thin and rapid pulse. Treatment should be aimed at nourishing yin and reducing fire. The disease is located in the kidney and often involves the lungs, heart, liver and other organs.

Clinical manifestations

Kidney yin governs the whole body and refers to yin, which belongs to "water". It has the effect of nourishing and moistening all organs and tissues of the body. When the kidney yin reaches the internal organs and tissues of the whole body, it is transformed into the yin of the internal organs and tissues. If the kidney yin is deficient, the organs and tissues will lose nourishment, which will cause a series of diseases. The main clinical manifestations include dizziness, tinnitus, soreness of waist and knees, insomnia, hot flashes and night sweats, fever in the five parts of the body, dry throat and red cheeks, loose teeth and hair loss, weight loss, short and yellow urine or dry stool, red tongue with little fluid, and thin and rapid pulse. Men may also have erectile dysfunction, spermatorrhea, and premature ejaculation. Women may have oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea, and metrorrhagia.

The clinical manifestations of kidney yin deficiency can be summarized into ten aspects:

1. Waist and knee pain is caused by insufficient kidney yin, marrow loss, weak bones, and malnutrition of bones;

2. Dizziness and tinnitus are caused by insufficient kidney essence, which leads to a lack of brain and ear nourishment.

3. The cause of insomnia and dreaminess is the imbalance of water and fire, the hyperactivity of heart fire, and restlessness;

4. Yang is strong and easy to get up because Yin deficiency makes the fire move recklessly;

5. Sperm leakage and nocturnal emission are caused by the restlessness of the King Fire, which disturbs the sperm chamber;

6. Oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea are caused by insufficient menstrual blood supply due to Yin deficiency;

7. Metrorrhagia is caused by Yin deficiency and Yang hyperactivity, and deficiency heat forcing blood;

8. Emaciation, dry throat and red cheeks are caused by kidney yin deficiency and lack of nourishment to the body;

9. Hot flashes, night sweats, fever in the five parts of the body, yellow urine and dry stools are all caused by internal heat;

10. A red tongue with little fluid and a thin and rapid pulse are both signs of Yin deficiency.
