Patient's question:
The penis cannot get erect. One month ago, it could get erect, but sometimes it feels very soft, like it's fake. Recently, it cannot get erect, but it can get erect when sleeping, but it's not very hard and becomes soft after a while. Also, I often feel like my body is hot, but sometimes I don't feel any heat when touching my body. I feel exhausted from taking naps and wake up after sleeping for more than two hours. How can I treat this to get better?Doctor's answer:
This situation should be a sign of the body regaining an imbalance. It is recommended that you first pay attention to a regular diet and sleep schedule, consume more fresh vegetables and fruits, and ensure a balanced nutrition. Try to avoid working overtime at night when possible. If necessary, consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for syndrome differentiation and treatment to regulate your constitution. It is also advisable to get a prostate fluid check to rule out the possibility of prostatitis.For patients with erectile dysfunction, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek appropriate treatment promptly and maintain a regular lifestyle, avoiding prolonged sitting.
