For a long time, many articles on how to judge kidney deficiency have been widely disseminated on the Internet and WeChat, and some of them are incorrect. As a doctor in the treatment of kidney disease, it is necessary to come out and correct some non-professional statements, so as to correct the hearing and hearing, and also correct the name of kidney deficiency.
What is kidney deficiency?
Kidney deficiency refers to the weakness of human body caused by the deficiency of kidney essence. For this reason, when discussing the symptoms of kidney deficiency, we should not add the human symptoms that are not caused by the deficiency of kidney essence for no reason, so as to guide and listen by mistake.
So, what are the symptoms of kidney deficiency?
Here are a few symptoms of kidney deficiency that have been misinterpreted for a long time for the reader's reference.
1. The asthenia of kidney deficiency is its own unique symptom, which is different from the general asthenia. In other words, fatigue can be caused by many reasons. Therefore, it cannot be said that all fatigue is kidney deficiency. Kidney asthenia is characterized by weakness of waist and knee, or soreness and weakness of waist and knee. Such weakness is kidney asthenia.
2. Kidney deficiency low back pain also has its own characteristics, and is different from other low back pain. In most cases, the low back pain of kidney deficiency is the faint pain or swelling pain in the kidney area, and generally there is no percussion pain or tenderness.
3. Tinnitus due to kidney deficiency also has its own unique tinnitus method. The tinnitus caused by kidney deficiency is mostly squeaky cicadas, which is different from tinnitus caused by other reasons. For example, the tinnitus caused by hyperactivity of liver fire is the loud machine roar, which is different from the tinnitus caused by kidney deficiency. Therefore, tinnitus cannot be said to be kidney deficiency.
4. The frequency of urination due to kidney deficiency also has its own characteristics, which is also different from the frequency of urination caused by other reasons. The frequency of urination caused by kidney deficiency is mostly accompanied by waist and knee weakness or waist soreness and swelling, fear of harm and fear of cold, while the frequency of urination caused by spleen deficiency, pregnancy, damp and heat is different. For this reason, we cannot say that frequent urination is kidney deficiency.
5. Kidney deficiency alopecia also has its own characteristics and is different from other alopecia. Hair loss caused by kidney deficiency must be accompanied by waist and knee soreness, tenderness and pain. However, hair loss caused by other reasons is not accompanied by soreness of waist and knee. If hair loss is caused by blood heat or damp heat, it is often accompanied by dry mouth, bitter mouth, red tongue and yellow fur. In particular, fever occurs after nightfall.
There are also some other special symptoms of kidney deficiency, which will not be listed one by one. This time, we will only correct some of the symptoms that are more misdiagnosed.
