Patient's question:
I have chronic deficiency of qi in the prostate. 10 days ago, I had frequent urination.Doctor's answer:
Hello, Shrinkage syndrome, also known as fear of shrinkage syndrome, refers to some men and women mistakenly believing that their penis, testicles, or external genitalia, breasts, etc., are constantly shrinking, even retracting into the abdominal cavity, thereby producing a sense of fear. It is a hysterical disorder with a strong sexual connotation. While the primary treatment principle for this condition is to warm the meridians and dispel cold, attention is also paid to the balance of cold and heat, as well as deficiency and excess, without any bias.The traditional treatment methods involve administering chili pepper soup to the patient or applying chili peppers to the genital area or breasts. Afterward, all patients reported that they did not feel any heat from the chili pepper soup at the time, and only when they began to feel the heat did the episode of shrinkage syndrome quickly subside.
