Chilly limbs
Low back pain and leg pain, frequent urination and urgency
"Cold phobia" refers to a feeling of being afraid of the cold and wind.
"Limb cold" refers to the symptoms of cold limbs, hands, and feet, even reaching the elbow and knee joints.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney stores essence.
The essence of the kidney produces kidney yin and yang, which nourish and warm the five viscera and six internal organs.
Kidney Yin and Kidney Yang are interdependent and mutually restrictive in the human body, maintaining the physiological balance of the human body.
"If this balance is disrupted or one side declines, pathological changes will occur, and men will develop symptoms such as impotence, premature ejaculation, semen slippage, and semen disease.".
As one of the important organs in the human body, the kidney nourishes and warms other internal organs. If other organs remain ill for a long time, it is easy to damage the kidney.
Many chronic diseases such as chronic hepatitis, coronary heart disease, bronchial asthma, hypertension, and other patients are often accompanied by symptoms of kidney deficiency.
Dizziness and tinnitus
Many people have experienced a feeling of dizziness, with the sensation of dizziness, dizziness, dizziness, and nausea and vomiting. Moreover, patients with dizziness often have tinnitus, which impairs hearing, and can lead to deafness in the long run.
The causes of dizziness and tinnitus are mostly related to liver and kidney.
In traditional Chinese medicine, it is said that "the kidney stores essence and generates marrow, and the marrow gathers to form the brain." Therefore, kidney deficiency can lead to insufficient marrow sea, loss of nourishment in the brain, dizziness, and tinnitus.
asthma
The kidney has the function of "absorbing qi".
Due to kidney deficiency and inability to absorb qi, it can cause shortness of breath, excessive exhalation and insufficient inhalation, making it difficult for you to breathe freely.
In severe cases, accompanied by asthma, symptoms such as increased wheezing and cold sweating may also occur.
lumbago
The root cause of low back pain is kidney deficiency, which can be divided into internal injury and strain.
"Kidney deficiency due to internal injury generally refers to congenital deficiency, prolonged illness, physical deficiency, or excessive fatigue.".
It is difficult to bend or stand upright in the light, and symptoms such as heel pain, waist fatigue, etc. appear in the heavy.
Strain refers to physical overload or long-term work in the same fixed position (using a computer, driving, etc.), which can damage kidney qi and lead to insufficient kidney essence.
Sitting rigidly in a place for a long time, coupled with mental stress or excessive fatigue, can lead to qi stagnation and blood stasis, ultimately leading to kidney deficiency.
Nocturnal polyuria
Generally, the frequency of nocturnal urination is more than 2 times, or the urine volume exceeds 1/4 of the whole day. In severe cases, nocturnal urination occurs once an hour, and the urine volume is close to or exceeds the diurnal urine volume. This situation is considered as "nocturnal polyuria".
Normal urination during the day and excessive urination at night are characteristics of kidney deficiency, mostly caused by weakness of kidney qi.
Constipated people often suffer from anal fissure, hemorrhoids, and other symptoms due to difficulty in defecating, affecting their work and life, and suffering unbearably.
Although stool constipation belongs to the dysfunction of the conduction function of the large intestine, its root cause is due to kidney deficiency, as the kidney opens its doors to the two yin and governs the two stools. The conduction of stool must be stimulated and nourished by the kidney qi to function properly.
