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. Treatment for kidney deficiency should not involve self-medication with tonics, as this can have the opposite effect. It is recommended to consult a TCM practitioner for a pulse diagnosis to determine the specific cause and receive targeted treatment. Based on your condition, it is possible that psychological factors are the cause. It is advised to visit a urology department in the hospital to rule out any organic diseases before starting treatment.
