What's wrong with not having enough breath to speak

Some friends, when they are angry, they don’t have enough energy. Even if you talk too much, you may feel short of breath. In fact, this situation of not having enough energy to speak is most likely caused by qi deficiency. Qi deficiency actually means that the human body lacks vital energy, which leads to the occurrence of some pathological changes. There are other symptoms of Qi deficiency. Let us learn about Qi deficiency below.

What are the symptoms of Qi deficiency?

Qi deficiency symptoms can involve all aspects of the body. For example, if qi is deficient, the body will be unable to defend against external pathogens, the skin will not be firm, and sweating will occur easily; if qi is deficient, the muscles of the limbs will not be nourished, and the whole body will feel tired and weak; if qi is deficient, the clear yang will not rise, the clear orifices will not be nourished, and the spirit will be weak, dizzy and tinnitus will occur; if qi is deficient, the body will be unable to lead the blood circulation, and the pulse will be weak or fine; if qi is deficient, the water metabolism will be disordered, the water will not be transformed, and the distribution will be obstructed, which can cause phlegm to form drink, and even water evil will overflow and cause edema; qi deficiency can also lead to decreased function of the internal organs, thus manifesting a series of signs of internal organ weakness.

1. Lung Qi Deficiency

The lungs control the qi, regulate breathing, connect to the skin and hair, and regulate the water channels. If the lung qi is deficient, its functions of promoting and descending, controlling breathing, regulating water metabolism, and resisting external pathogens will be weakened, resulting in symptoms such as shortness of breath, spontaneous sweating, a low and timid voice, coughing and wheezing, chest tightness, susceptibility to colds, and even edema and difficulty urinating.

2. Kidney Qi Deficiency

The kidneys are located in the waist, store essence and energy, and control the opening and closing of the two yin meridians. Essence and energy fill the five internal organs and nourish the brain marrow. Deficiency of kidney qi and lack of nourishment will cause symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, forgetfulness, soreness and weakness in the waist and knees, frequent and clear urination, clear and thin leucorrhea, pale tongue and weak pulse. If the kidneys cannot absorb air, breathing will be shallow and rapid, with more exhalation than inhalation.

3. Spleen deficiency

The spleen is located in the middle burner and is responsible for transportation and transformation, ascending the lump of fluid, and regulating blood circulation. The spleen is weak and cannot transport and transform the essence of food and water, resulting in a lack of source of qi and blood. Symptoms include decreased appetite, stomach discomfort after eating, fatigue, weight loss, loose stools, sallow complexion, pale tongue with thin coating, and weak pulse.

4. Deficiency of heart qi

The heart controls blood vessels and stores the spirit. Deficiency of heart qi cannot stimulate blood circulation, nor can it nourish the spirit, so symptoms include palpitations, shortness of breath, and sweating, which are aggravated by exertion, fatigue, pale tongue, and a weak pulse.

5. Yang (Qi) Deficiency

Qi deficiency may be manifested by pale complexion, dizziness, shortness of breath, laziness to speak, fatigue, and even fainting. In addition to the symptoms of qi deficiency, yang deficiency also includes fear of cold, cold limbs, spontaneous sweating, a slow or late and weak pulse, and a fat and pale tongue with a white tongue coating.
