Patient's question:
I have chronic gastritis, and since Western medicine cannot cure it, I have been using traditional Chinese medicine to treat it recently. However, for some reason, every time I have sexual intercourse with my wife, I feel a bit weak and exhausted. This makes me feel very distressed, and I don't know if it's because of the traditional Chinese medicine I'm using.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, this condition that causes sexual function decline is not common. The most prominent symptom of acid reflux is heartburn, which is a burning sensation behind the sternum. It originates in the chest and can extend to the neck, throat, or even the face, caused by acid reflux. It typically recurs after meals or when lying down and may be accompanied by the reflux of stomach contents into the mouth or excessive saliva. If you have this condition, it is recommended that you consult a doctor. In addition to symptomatic treatment for gastric diseases, patients also need to pay attention to maintaining deep sleep in daily life. Only sufficient deep sleep can help you recover from this illness as soon as possible.
