Patient's question:
I'm usually quite busy with work and feel physically exhausted. Recently, during sexual activity with my wife, I discovered that I couldn't get an erection, which has also affected our relationship. I'm really feeling very distressed. Could you please explain: Why does weak or insufficient erection lead to impotence?Doctor's answer:
Considering the condition caused by kidney deficiency, Liuwei Dihuang Wan, Zhibai Dihuang Wan, and Zuoyuan Wan can be used for treatment. Eat more kidney-nourishing foods, such as sesame seeds and walnuts. Be mindful to avoid spicy and irritating foods, such as mutton and (baijiu). Avoid overworking, as it harms the body. Rest well and drink more porridge. Engage in appropriate exercises.When patients face the issue of weak erections, we should actively conduct examinations and treatments without hesitation. Avoid delaying medical consultation. If the condition of weak erections does not improve with prolonged treatment, it is essential to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
