Does lower back pain cause impotence or an inability to maintain an erection?

Patient's question:

Three years ago, lithotripsy for kidney stones caused chronic lower back muscle and spinal pain later on; now I've noticed symptoms of premature ejaculation or weak erection. Can it be cured?

Doctor's answer:

The two situations you mentioned ultimately stem from kidney deficiency and require treatment. It's not about treating them separately, but rather focusing on replenishing the kidneys as the foundation. At the same time, back pain can also be treated through acupuncture at specific points. For patients with premature ejaculation, timely treatment can reduce the frequency of the condition. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take oral medication promptly and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
