What are the differences between the manifestations of kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency?

The human body has yin and yang, but few people can achieve a balance between yin and yang. People with a balance between yin and yang are very healthy, and they also pay great attention to health preservation every day. However, most of the general population now often find it difficult to balance yin and yang, and will show signs of yin deficiency and yang weakness, which will have a great impact on the human body. It is generally divided into two types, kidney yang deficiency and kidney yin deficiency, which are two completely different diseases. Regardless of pathological factors or normal conditions, the manifestations are different. Patients with kidney yang deficiency often have sore waist and legs, feel weak all over, and have a cold body. Patients with kidney yin deficiency will show sore waist and leg pain, dry mouth, irritability, and frequent sweating. In addition, the principles of treatment must be mastered. Both conditions need to be treated separately.

1. Symptoms of Kidney Yang Deficiency

The most common symptoms of kidney yang deficiency are low back pain and cold hands and feet, accompanied by frequent urination.

In detail, the symptoms of kidney yang deficiency generally include the following process:

Men will first feel pain in the waist, because the waist is the home of the kidneys. While feeling the pain, they can also feel a distinct chill inside the waist, which is the most typical symptom of kidney yang deficiency. It will then spread to the patient's entire body, and the whole body will feel cold.

Men with kidney yang deficiency can consider seafood and leek seeds when choosing kidney-tonifying foods. Recommended kidney-tonifying medicines include Jinkui Shenqi Pills and Wuzi Yanzong Pills.

2. Symptoms of Kidney Yin Deficiency

Clinically, there are more symptoms of kidney yin deficiency: sore waist and weak legs, dry mouth, irritability, hot palms and sweating are all symptoms of kidney yin deficiency.

Men who suffer from sexual dysfunction such as impotence due to kidney yin deficiency can usually eat more kidney yin-tonifying medicines such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills. In addition, porridge with mulberry seeds and wolfberries is a good kidney-tonifying food.

In addition, one principle should be paid attention to when tonifying the kidney. When the kidney is deficient in yin, the fire is easy to be strong. When yin is deficient and the fire is strong, if you use warm aphrodisiac drugs at this time, it is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, and the patient's fever will be even greater. On the other hand, if the patient has kidney yang deficiency and is afraid of cold, if you use some yin-nourishing medicines, it would be making the situation worse and the patient would not be able to bear it either.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that everything is divided into two aspects, yin and yang. The human kidney is also divided into kidney yin and kidney yang. The cause of renal dysfunction may be caused by kidney yin deficiency or kidney yang deficiency. Therefore, to tonify the kidney, we must find out the cause and tonify it according to the type.

Kidney Yin deficiency and kidney Yang deficiency are a term in Traditional Chinese Medicine theory. Kidney Yin deficiency and kidney Yang deficiency are also symptoms in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The kidney deficiency we usually talk about includes kidney Yin deficiency and kidney Yang deficiency, and also includes both Yin and Yang deficiency of the kidney. Kidney Yin deficiency and kidney Yang deficiency involve the basic theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which contain a lot of content. Kidney Yin is material, while kidney Yang and kidney Qi are functional. If too much substances are consumed, such as kidney essence, or sexual life is too frequent, or labor (including mental and physical labor) is excessive, or the person is born weak and has a relatively low material foundation, symptoms such as weakness in the waist and knees, fatigue in the limbs, dizziness, tinnitus, hair loss, loose teeth, memory loss, loss of libido, nocturnal emission, premature ejaculation, etc. may appear. These are symptoms of kidney yin deficiency.

Kidney Yin deficiency is prone to false heat. According to TCM theory, Yin deficiency causes internal heat, which can easily lead to heat in the five hearts (that is, the palms of the hands, the soles of the feet, and the heart feel hot) and night sweats when sleeping (that is, falling asleep and waking up with sweat on the body). Young and middle-aged people are more active, whether studying or exercising, and they consume more material resources. Their sexual desire is not particularly low, but they ejaculate quickly or have nocturnal emission, so they need to replenish kidney yin. Kidney yang deficiency has the same symptoms as kidney yin deficiency, such as soreness of waist and knees, fatigue of limbs, and decreased libido. Because it is yang deficiency, according to TCM theory, yang deficiency will produce external cold, and symptoms of fear of cold will appear, with pale complexion, chills, cold hands and feet, clear and long urine, and loose stools. Low libido is similar to what modern medicine calls low androgen levels. The manifestations of yang deficiency are external, while the manifestations of kidney yin deficiency are internal. The symptom of kidney yang deficiency is fear of cold. Kidney yin deficiency is prone to premature ejaculation and spermatorrhea, while kidney yang deficiency is more likely to cause impotence. The common point is that low back pain, fatigue, soreness of limbs, etc. are common symptoms.
