This involves a term of traditional Chinese medicine and also involves clinical syndrome types. Kidney deficiency mainly exists in four aspects, one is kidney yin deficiency, the other is kidney yang deficiency, the third is kidney meridian deficiency and the fourth is kidney qi deficiency.
"Kidney" in the concept of "kidney deficiency" in traditional medicine not only refers to the anatomical kidney, but also is an important organ with a wide range of physiological functions, which is directly or indirectly related to human reproduction, growth and development, digestion, endocrine metabolism and so on.

Difference between kidney-yang deficiency and kidney-yin deficiency
There are more kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency in clinic. Both kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency are part of kidney deficiency, representing a certain syndrome, which can be distinguished from the symptoms.
1, symptoms of kidney-yang deficiency
The most common symptoms of kidney-yang deficiency are low back pain, chills, cold hands and feet, and frequent urination.
In detail, the whole symptom of kidney-yang deficiency has the following process:
Male friends first feel low back pain, because the waist is the house of the kidney, and at the same time they can obviously feel cold in the waist, which is the most typical symptom of kidney-yang deficiency.
Then it will spread to the whole body of the patient and the whole body will feel cold.
Men with kidney-yang deficiency can consider seafood and leek seeds when choosing kidney-tonifying foods. Kidney-tonifying drugs recommend Jinkui Shenqi Pill and Wuzi Yanzong Pill.
2. Symptoms of kidney yin deficiency
Clinically, there are many symptoms of kidney yin deficiency: backache and leg weakness, dry mouth, irritability, palm fever and love sweating, all of which are symptoms of kidney yin deficiency.
Men with sexual dysfunction such as impotence caused by deficiency of kidney yin can usually eat drugs such as Liuwei Dihuang Pill to tonify kidney yin. Mulberry porridge is a good food for tonifying kidney.
In addition, we should pay attention to a principle of tonifying kidney. In the case of kidney yin deficiency, fire is easy to flourish, and fire is prosperous due to yin deficiency. If those warm aphrodisiacs are used again at this time, it is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, and the patient's fever is even greater.
On the other hand, if the patient has kidney-yang deficiency and is afraid of cold, you should use some drugs to nourish yin, which will make things worse and the patient can't stand it.
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 insufficiency may be kidney yin deficiency or kidney yang deficiency. So find out the reason and tonify the kidney.
Kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency are terms in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency are also symptoms of traditional Chinese medicine. Kidney deficiency usually includes kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency, and also includes kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency. Kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency are related to the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, and there are many contents. Kidney yin is the substance, kidney yang and kidney qi are the functions.
If you ingest a lot of substances, such as kidney essence, frequent sexual life, overwork (including mental and physical strength), or natural weakness and low material foundation, you will have symptoms of kidney yin deficiency, such as weakness of waist and knees, weakness of limbs, dizziness and tinnitus, hair loss, loose teeth, memory loss, loss of libido, nocturnal emission and premature ejaculation. Deficiency heat is easy to occur due to kidney yin deficiency. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, yin deficiency produces internal heat, which is easy to cause five upset heat (that is, two palms, two soles, one feeling is that the heart feels hot). It is easy to have night sweats when sleeping (that is, when you fall asleep, you will sweat when you wake up).
Young and middle-aged people have a lot of activities. Whether studying or exercising, you consume a lot of substances, and your sexual desire is not particularly low. However, if you ejaculate quickly or have nocturnal emission, you should tonify the kidney and nourish the yin. The symptoms of kidney-yang deficiency are the same as those of kidney-yin deficiency, such as weakness of waist and knees, weakness of limbs and decreased libido. Because it is yang deficiency, Chinese medicine theory says that yang deficiency leads to external cold, and there will be symptoms of chills, such as pale face, cold, cold hands and feet, long urine and thin stool.
Sexual desire is relatively low, similar to the low androgen in modern medicine. Yang deficiency is external, kidney yin deficiency is internal, and kidney yang deficiency has symptoms of being afraid of cold. Kidney yin deficiency is easy to premature ejaculation and nocturnal emission, and kidney yang deficiency has impotence. * * * is the same, backache, limb weakness, etc. , are all the same symptoms.
Doctors in past dynasties believed that kidney deficiency syndrome was one of the main causes of illness and aging of the elderly.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the essence of health lies in "Yin and Yang are the secrets and God is the rule." It means that under normal circumstances, the defense of internal organs, qi and blood, the functions of limbs and fourteen meridians can be coordinated with yin and yang to achieve relative balance. Balance is a symbol of health.
The reason why people are old is that people's bodies are in a physiological state: deficiency of qi and blood, mental fatigue, congenital deficiency, acquired malnutrition, deficiency of kidney yin, hyperactivity of liver fire, and accumulation of toxins blocking meridians.
Someone once investigated 235 people over the age of 20. Among them, the rate of kidney deficiency was 58% at the age of 30, 765,438+0% at the age of 40, 80% at the age of 50, 90% at the age of 60 and 95% at the age of 70. Therefore, the percentage of kidney deficiency increases with age.
Therefore, it is the key to delay aging and prevent senile diseases to effectively adjust the dysfunction of yin and yang, qi and blood and viscera at an early stage, expel toxins in time and correct kidney deficiency syndrome.
According to Neijing, "Exhaustion of nature leads to kidney failure." Will lead to human aging. Yue Meizhong, a famous old Chinese doctor, said: "When people are old, the kidneys dry first, which affects organs." Zhu Danxi said in "The Theory of Gezhi Language": "After 60 or 70 years of life, there is nothing to do. What is this? Dizziness, muscle itching, runny nose, toothache, salivation, lack of sleep, soft feet, deafness, forgetfulness, dizziness, dry intestines, dirty face, dizziness ... but they are all in the old world ... The above symptoms are all lack of qi and blood.
It shows that the accumulation of essence and toxin and the deficiency of qi and blood are the causes of human aging.
Kidney deficiency is the natural law of kidney essence deficiency in the elderly. In order to promote the health and longevity of the elderly, it is necessary to tonify kidney and detoxify kidney deficiency symptoms at an early stage. Experts believe that anti-aging should start at the age of 30, anti-aging should start at the age of 40, and age extension should start at the age of 60.
In view of kidney deficiency, you should find a doctor in time.
3. Symptoms of kidney-qi deficiency
Symptoms include fatigue, shortness of breath, soreness of waist and knees, frequent urination (nocturia) and pale tongue.
Male patients may have nocturnal emission or premature ejaculation, while female patients may have leucorrhea and fetal movement.
therapeutic method
Tonifying kidney, due to the difference of yin deficiency, yang deficiency, deficiency of essence and qi deficiency, there are different ways and different drugs for tonifying kidney, such as tonifying kidney yang, nourishing kidney yin, benefiting kidney qi and replenishing kidney essence. However, there is a wrong tendency at present, that is, in health care products, tonifying deficiency is the main, tonifying kidney is the main, and tonifying kidney is also the main, which leads to the abuse of products that tonify kidney and strengthen yang.
Abuse of health care products and Chinese herbal medicines to tonify the kidney has caused some adverse consequences. In this regard, it is still an old saying: medicine tonic is not as good as food tonic, and food tonic is not as good as god tonic. In order to pursue health and regulate the symptoms of kidney deficiency, we should make more efforts in nutrition, regulating the law of life and physical exercise, and consumers should not be superstitious about "health products".
