Whether the kidneys are weak or not can be seen from this point

The pace of modern life is getting faster and faster, the pressure on many office workers is gradually increasing, and many men are in a sub-healthy state! The most common health problem among men is kidney deficiency. Do you know what the symptoms of kidney deficiency in men are?

Symptom 1: Yawning: Yawning continuously and for a long time

Yawning is a physiological phenomenon that we often encounter in life. It usually occurs when we are tired and sleepy, or when we are woken up from a deep sleep. Yawning at these times is a normal physiological phenomenon and there is no need to worry. However, if you yawn frequently for a long time regardless of the time and when you are not tired, it may mean that you have kidney deficiency and you should pay enough attention to it.

The kidney deficiency manifested by yawning is generally a syndrome of kidney yang deficiency. In addition to yawning and fatigue, people of this type are often accompanied by symptoms such as pale and dull complexion, cold body and limbs, poor appetite and abdominal distension, loose stools, increased nocturia (or clear and long urination). If you look at the tongue, you can also find symptoms such as pale tongue, white tongue coating, and purple lips.

Symptom 2: Salty mouth, feeling salty for no reason

People with kidney yin deficiency, in addition to a salty taste in the mouth, often also have symptoms such as dry throat and mouth, dizziness and tinnitus, soreness of the waist and knees, fever in the five parts of the body, insomnia and nightmares. If you look at the tongue, you will find that the tongue is red and the tongue coating is thin.

People with kidney yang deficiency, in addition to a salty taste in the mouth, often also have symptoms such as general fatigue, shortness of breath, fatigue, chills and cold limbs, cold pain in the waist and knees, weak legs, frequent urination at night, etc. If you look at the tongue, you will find that the tongue is pale and fat, and there are tooth marks on the edges of the tongue.

Symptom 3: Feelings of fear for no apparent reason

The "fear" mentioned here is different from the "shock" we usually say. Being shocked means being unaware of the event and being frightened by it happening suddenly. Fear is commonly known as timidity. You know it in advance, and it is fear. Fearfulness caused by kidney deficiency is usually accompanied by symptoms such as empty head, forgetfulness, and weakness in waist and knees. This characteristic can be used as a reference for judgment.

People with kidney yin deficiency, in addition to fear, also have symptoms such as hot hands and feet, restlessness, insomnia, nocturnal emission and night sweats. If you look at the tongue, you will find that the tongue is red and the tongue coating is less and dry. People with kidney yang deficiency are not only afraid but also have symptoms such as fear of cold, cold limbs, fatigue and weakness. If you look at their tongue, you will find that the tongue is pale and tender with white tongue coating.

Symptom 4: Chills: Fear of cold

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that if the human body has sufficient yang energy, it can resist the cold, maintain normal body temperature, and not feel cold; if the human body's yang energy is weak and cannot warm the body, it will feel cold.

The human body's Yang energy is spread throughout the body and is everywhere. Every organ has Yang energy. In essence, the kidneys are the source of Yang energy. The kidney is the foundation of the human body, containing true yin and true yang, also called kidney yin and kidney yang. Kidney yin is the foundation of the human body's yin fluid, and kidney yang is the foundation of the human body's yang energy. Treatment of all types of chills involves warming and tonifying the kidney yang.

Symptom 5: Sneezing: Frequent and prolonged sneezing

Sneezing is a common physiological phenomenon and many people have experienced sneezing. Why do people sneeze? Traditional Chinese medicine believes that there are two situations.

One situation is acute sneezing, which often occurs when the climate suddenly turns cold, when the body gets cold, and when colds are prevalent. It often appears at the same time as cold symptoms. When the cold is cured, the sneezing will stop. Sneezing in this situation is considered positive.

Another situation is sneezing caused by kidney deficiency. The Wei Qi in the body is the main force to resist external evil. It originates from the kidneys in the lower part of the body, nourishes the spleen in the middle part, and spreads to the lungs in the upper part. If the kidney Qi in the human body is weak, the source of Wei Qi will be insufficient, and the Wei Qi that reaches the channel for the Wei Qi to be released - the lungs - will be insufficient. The lungs will not be able to release the Wei Qi normally, and sneezing will occur.

Sneezing caused by kidney deficiency is often frequent and long-lasting, accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, soreness or pain in the waist and knees, dull complexion, fear of cold, cold hands and feet, etc. It is more common in patients with allergic rhinitis. Sneezing caused by kidney deficiency is difficult to cure simply by eliminating evil. The kidney should be nourished to strengthen the foundation, so that the kidney Qi is vigorous, the defensive Qi is sufficient, and the body's ability to resist external evil is enhanced.

Symptom 6: Frequent urination + high urine protein

Expert analysis: The standard for healthy urination is: 8 times a day, about 300 ml each time, and the total amount not exceeding 3000 ml. If it happens more than 8 times and not due to drinking water, it is called frequent urination. Many people think that constant urge to urinate is definitely due to kidney deficiency. In fact, most frequent urination has nothing to do with the kidneys.

If you urinate frequently but in small amounts, it could be a problem with your bladder and urethra. If you urinate frequently but in small amounts, it could be a metabolic disease, such as diabetes or polyuria. Only when you urinate frequently and a routine urine test reveals high urine protein, is there a possibility of kidney problems.

Some people urinate frequently because they always feel the urge to urinate. At this time, you can check yourself: if you feel the urge to urinate very urgently, it may be an overactive bladder; if you feel a slight urge to urinate and not very urgent, it may be sensory neurosis or chronic bladder inflammation caused by urinary tract infection.
