Is it better to see Chinese medicine or Western medicine for kidney deficiency?

The impact of kidney deficiency on physical health is actually quite large, so we should still focus on scientific conditioning. Usually Chinese medicine conditioning is of course more appropriate because it can reduce some side effects from the inside out.

1. Kidney deficiency is divided into kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency: The difference between kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency is that if kidney yin is a material deficiency, kidney yang is a functional deficiency. Material deficiency means soreness of waist and knees, dizziness, premature ejaculation, spermatorrhea, fever in the five hearts, insomnia, and irritability in young people. In traditional Chinese medicine, Yin deficiency produces internal heat and Yang deficiency produces external cold. If kidney yin deficiency occurs in the elderly, hair loss or graying will occur earlier, and tinnitus, hearing loss, loose teeth, and blurred vision will occur earlier. Therefore, this is kidney yin deficiency. Kidney yin deficiency generally occurs more in young and middle-aged people, and we have more clinical symptoms.

2. You must nourish kidney yin, and seek yang in yin. When nourishing kidney yin, you should not just use drugs that nourish kidney yin. Kidney yin deficiency can be supplemented by eating hasselt membrane, black fungus, black sesame, small walnuts, etc. Kidney nourishing drugs include Zuogui Pills, Liuwei Dihuang Pills, etc.
