Is cold hands and feet related to the prostate?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am 23 years old. I am the kind of person who always has cold hands and feet, cold knees, and a cold lower back. I don't know if it's caused by kidney deficiency. Also, recently I have been urinating frequently, and the urine smells bad. I want to ask if cold hands and feet are related to the prostate? Am I suffering from prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

Cold hands and feet are generally not related to the prostate gland. It is primarily caused by kidney yang deficiency. Additionally, besides feeling cool in the lower back and having frequent urination, these are also symptoms of kidney yang deficiency. However, you can undergo a routine urinalysis and a color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate to confirm whether you have prostatitis and if there are any abnormalities in your urinalysis. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover quickly!
