Patient's question:
In the past few months, I've been feeling uncomfortable with urination, and I have to hold it for a long time each time. Then I went to see a doctor, who said it was prostatitis and prescribed some medication for me. But after taking it, I didn't feel any improvement. I'd like to ask, how can prostatitis caused by kidney yang deficiency be treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis caused by deficiency of kidney yang can be clinically diagnosed as recurrent soreness and pain in the waist and knees, fatigue in the lower limbs, and a recurring feeling of cold in the body. For prostatitis caused by this condition, dietary and herbal treatments can be used to nourish and strengthen yang. Examples of herbs that can be used in combination include Poria, Ligusticum, White Peony Root, Rehmannia, Leonurus, Plantago, Cistus, Epimedium, and Curculigo.
