Patient's question:
A few months ago, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and was told it was prostatitis. I took capsules for three months. The abdominal distension and lower abdominal pain, as well as frequent urination, gradually subsided. However, symptoms like premature ejaculation, low libido, and weak erection have not stabilized. The traditional Chinese medicine doctor said I have kidney yin deficiency, often sweating palms, and my feet also sweat a lot in bed during winter. What Chinese medicine can treat this condition? Is it effective?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Your issue is a clinical manifestation of kidney Yang deficiency, characterized by lower back and knee pain, aversion to cold, and cold limbs. It is recommended to take oral medications such as Shen Qi Wan or You Gui Wan. These medications are effective treatments for kidney Yang deficiency, and either one can be used. They are traditional Chinese medicines, and their effects take longer to show. It is suggested to take them for a longer period and to frequently soak feet in hot water. Additionally, you can consume more Yang-tonifying foods such as dog meat, lamb, and chives. For patients with premature ejaculation, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life while avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
