Last month, a patient came for a consultation, saying that he was not even 40 years old yet, but he often experienced difficulty maintaining an erection, and when he did, it did not last long. He also suffered from weakness and soreness in the lower back and knees, and his overall health was very poor.I came across my article online by chance and wanted to seek traditional Chinese medicine for some adjustments.
Patient's chief complaint: dailyPale complexion, dry and difficult bowel movements, soreness in the lower back and back, frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination, dry skin, deafness and tinnitus, watery discharge from the lower body, difficulty standing up, poor hardness。
tongue picture:The tongue body is pale white, and the tongue coating is thin and scant.。
Overall, these belong toYang Qi deficiency, Qi and blood insufficiencyOver time, it not only harms bodily functions but also affects overall health. Many people, when faced with such situations, first focus on replenishing qi and blood, believing that sufficient qi and blood can restore normalcy.In reality, the order is completely reversed, causing the problem to become increasingly severe.。
Traditional Chinese Medicine believesThe state of the ancestral sinew can reflect the health condition of the body, and the body's yang qi is one of the important elements for the fullness of the ancestral sinew, yang qi is the monarch that governs the qi and blood of the body's organsOnce the yang qi is insufficient, it will lead to deficiency of qi and blood. The decline in function is only the first step; physical health will be gradually eroded. It is like the ruler of a country being harmed, leading to the decline of the nation and the sorrow of the people, with grass and trees growing on the city walls.
I prescribed a set of formulas for the patient, consisting ofSemen Allii Tuberosi, Cynomorium Songaricum, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Radix Rehmanniae Praeparata, Fructus Mori, Rhizoma DioscoreaeComposition, the combination of these herbs canWarming and tonifying the primordial yang, generating liver blood, astringing yin fluids, sufficient yang qi, qi and blood can ascend and can fill the ancestral sinews。
I instructed him to take the medication on time and maintain a regular daily routine. When he came for a follow-up the day before yesterday, he reported that he had mostly returned to normal, except for some issues with urination and bowel movements. After making a simple adjustment to the prescription, I advised him to continue taking the medication consistently until his condition stabilizes.
In our daily diagnosis and treatment, we must grasp the root cause and avoid using medication arbitrarily. If any issues arise, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly.
