Patient's question:
I am 39 years old this year. After getting older, I feel that my sexual function has declined somewhat, and I also have some lower back pain and soreness. Hello, is this a sign of kidney deficiency? However, I feel that my symptoms are somewhat consistent with prostatitis. Hello, which condition is this?Doctor's answer:
If there is slight lower back pain or soreness in the waist, besides a decline in sexual function, it is indeed possible that it could be due to a deficiency of kidney qi. At times, prostatitis or benign prostatic hyperplasia can also lead to a decline in sexual function. However, issues with the prostate generally do not cause lower back pain or soreness. Therefore, in your case, it is more likely to indicate a deficiency of the kidneys. However, it is also possible that you may have issues with the prostate as well. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for examination. The condition of male diseases tends to be recurrent.
