Still wondering if it's kidney qi deficiency or yang deficiency? Here's how to tell the difference

Kidney deficiency is a common disease in modern people. There are usually three types of symptoms, namely kidney yin deficiency, kidney yang deficiency and kidney qi deficiency. These three symptoms each have their own unique manifestations. When the kidneys are uncomfortable, it is important to distinguish whether it is yin deficiency, yang deficiency or qi deficiency.

Kidney Qi Deficiency

It is another manifestation of kidney yang deficiency, which is not characterized by cold as the main symptom. Traditional Chinese medicine says that "yin forms the body, and yang transforms into qi", which means that kidney qi deficiency is a group of symptoms caused by kidney yang deficiency, which leads to the dysfunction of the kidney's qi transformation function. Qi has the function of consolidation, so kidney qi deficiency manifests as the dysfunction of the function of consolidation. In addition to the common manifestations of kidney deficiency, it also manifests as fatigue, tinnitus, frequent and clear urination, or residual urine after urination, or incontinence, or frequent urination at night, or urinary incontinence, spermatorrhea and premature ejaculation in men, and clear and heavy vaginal discharge in women, infertility or fetal movement and miscarriage, and pale tongue with white fur.

Kidney Yang Deficiency

Deficiency leads to coldness, so in addition to the common manifestations of kidney deficiency, kidney yang deficiency is also accompanied by signs of coldness, such as fear of cold, cold limbs, impotence and premature ejaculation, infertility due to cold sperm or cold uterus, loose stools or diarrhea at dawn, difficult urination or edema, cold and pain in the waist and knees, and a pale tongue or a fat tongue with tooth marks.

When you feel unwell, you must go to the hospital to find out the cause. This article is just to let everyone understand the relevant knowledge. The specific treatment plan still needs to be consulted by the doctor.
