You may take Liu Wei Di Huang Wan or Zuo Gui Wan. Pay attention to rest and consume more foods that nourish kidney yin. Engage in regular physical exercise. Gradually, you will recover to normal. Male diseases can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment.
