Many times, when men experience lower back and abdominal pain, constipation (digestive medicine), etc., it may be due to kidney deficiency. For kidney deficiency, men must learn to grasp these common symptoms and promptly seek medical treatment. So, what are the common symptoms of male kidney deficiency?
These symptoms suggest kidney deficiency in men
1. Fear of cold and fear of wind. Limb cold "refers to the symptoms of cold limbs, hands, and feet, even reaching the elbow and knee joints. Fear of cold and limb coldness often accompanies kidney deficiency symptoms such as lower back and knee pain, mental fatigue, lack of energy and lazy speech, and lack of thirst.
2. Excessive sexual activity: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney stores essence. Kidney essence produces kidney yin and kidney yang, which nourish and warm the five organs and six organs. Kidney yin and kidney yang are interdependent and mutually restrictive in the human body, maintaining the physiological balance of the body. If this balance is disrupted or one side declines, pathological changes will occur, and men will experience symptoms such as impotence, premature ejaculation (liver and gallbladder surgery), slippery semen, and semen diseases.
3. Dizziness, weakness, insomnia, and dreaminess: The kidney, as one of the important organs in the human body, nourishes and warms other organs. If other organs remain ill for a long time, it is easy to damage the kidneys. Many patients with chronic diseases, such as chronic hepatitis, coronary heart disease (cardiovascular medicine), bronchial asthma (respiratory medicine), hypertension (cardiothoracic surgery cardiovascular medicine), are often accompanied by kidney deficiency symptoms.
4. Asthma (Respiratory Medicine): The kidneys have 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.
5. Low back pain: Low back pain is fundamentally due to kidney deficiency and can be divided into internal injuries and strain. Internal injury kidney deficiency generally refers to congenital deficiency, prolonged illness, physical deficiency, or excessive fatigue. Mild individuals may have difficulty bending or standing upright, while severe individuals may experience symptoms such as heel pain and low back fatigue; Strain refers to excessive physical burden or long-term work in the same fixed position, which can damage kidney qi and lead to insufficient kidney essence.
6. Nighttime 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 daytime urine volume. This situation is considered "nocturnal polyuria". Normal urination during the day and frequent urination at night are the characteristics of this condition, often caused by weak kidney qi.
7. Dizziness and Tinnitus: Many people have experienced a feeling of dizziness, with a feeling of dizziness in their eyes, spinning around, and nausea and vomiting. Moreover, dizziness patients often have tinnitus, which hinders hearing and can even lead to deafness in the long run (otolaryngology). The causes of dizziness and tinnitus are often related to the liver and kidneys. 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, loss of nourishment in the brain, dizziness, and tinnitus.
8. Constipation (Gastroenterology): Constipated individuals often experience symptoms such as anal fissure (anorectal surgery) and hemorrhoids (anorectal surgery) due to difficulty in defecation, which affects work and life and is unbearable. Although constipation belongs to the conduction dysfunction of the large intestine, its root cause is due to kidney deficiency, as the kidney opens the door to the two yin and governs the two stools. The conduction of stool must be stimulated and nourished by kidney qi to function properly.
9. Low back pain, leg pain, frequent urination, and urgency: Sitting in the car for a long time with a stiff body, coupled with mental tension during driving, can lead to qi stagnation and blood stasis, ultimately leading to kidney deficiency.
