Medical history: Had epididymitis
Doctor's answer:
Suspect you have kidney deficiency. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine theory, kidney deficiency is divided into two types: yin deficiency and yang deficiency. The symptoms manifest as yang deficiency causing coldness and yin deficiency causing heat. When treating kidney deficiency, it is crucial not to self-medicate with tonics, as this can have the opposite effect. I recommend consulting a TCM practitioner who can take your pulse to determine the specific cause and provide targeted treatment. Based on your condition, it may be related to psychological factors. I suggest you visit the urology department of a hospital to rule out any organic diseases before starting treatment.
