What are the symptoms of yang deficiency constitution?

Yang deficiency is a type of kidney deficiency. Kidney deficiency can be divided into two types: yang deficiency and yin deficiency. Based on their names, you should be able to infer something. According to Chinese medicine, our human body needs coordination of yin and yang. If one of yin and yang is weak, the other will become excessive, which will cause some adverse effects on the human body. Yang deficiency can cause excessive Yin in the human body, which can make the body feel chills, have cold limbs, mental depression, etc. The following is a detailed introduction to the manifestations of Yang deficiency.

Symptoms of Yang deficiency constitution :

1. The tongue is enlarged and has teeth marks

Because the body's water metabolism is relatively poor, it is difficult to convert into X-fluid and precipitates in various parts of the body. The manifestation on the tongue is that the tongue becomes thick and the saliva is abundant. Because the tongue becomes enlarged and the space in the mouth is limited, the edge of the tongue will be squeezed by the teeth and tooth marks will appear. The color of the tongue is pale white, or dark blue.

When you find that your tongue becomes enlarged and has teeth marks, you should pay attention, as you may have yang deficiency. You can also observe the color of your tongue. If there is any change, you may have yang deficiency.
