Patient's question:
A 29-year-old male has been experiencing this for several years. He sweats profusely all over his head and body after eating dinner or drinking water. Recently, he has noticed that he can no longer get an erection while in bed; he becomes soft instantly. I have some digestive issues. When I feel comfortable, bowel movements are easy, but when my stomach is stimulated, even loose stools take a long time to pass. Are these symptoms related? What illness do I have?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, from the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine, there is a condition of Spleen and Kidney Yang deficiency. It is necessary to have a follow-up visit to the hospital for relevant treatment. It is recommended to seek treatment in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department of the hospital, with the foundation of strengthening the Spleen and warming the Kidneys. You can take Gu Fu Di Huang Wan (Cinnabar and Prepared Rehmannia Pills) or Pi Shen Liang Zu Wan (Spleen and Kidney Support Pills). Yang deficiency generally leads to Qi deficiency, and the aforementioned symptoms are usually caused by Qi deficiency, so the function of Qi's containment increases. Avoid consuming spicy, irritating, and extremely cold foods. Avoid overexertion and overtime work. Prevent abdominal cold exposure and follow up regularly.
