Mr. Xu started to invigorate the kidney and strengthen the yang because he wanted to change his sexual function. Mr. Xu felt that his sexual dysfunction was related to his "kidney deficiency", so he began to supplement. First, there was food tonic. He didn't think there was any progress. Mr. Xu began to focus on medicine tonic. As long as there was traditional Chinese patent medicines and simple preparations with the words of strengthening yang and tonifying kidney, he would study it carefully. However, his family was very worried about his tonic. In order to reassure his family, Mr. Xu turned to an old Chinese doctor in his place and asked the old Chinese doctor to prescribe some warm tonic medicine for him. When he came back with the prescription, Mr. Xu began to take medicine.
Why did the medicine start to work, and then it didn't work?
In the first two months of taking Chinese medicine, Mr. Xu felt that his sexual function had improved, but after two months, the sexual life time of Mr. Xu and his wife began to be shortened quietly, which made Mr. Xu very nervous. What was the matter? At the suggestion of his wife, Mr. Xu went to the municipal hospital for an examination. The examination result showed that Mr. Xu was suffering from chronic prostatitis. Only then did Mr. Xu know that chronic prostatitis caused his sexual function to decline.
It is like eating when you are thirsty without drinking water. Can this quench thirst?
There are many patients like Mr. Xu who suffer from sexual dysfunction. They do not take physical examination seriously, but treat sexual function directly. In fact, there are many problems that lead to sexual dysfunction. We need to find the cause to really alleviate the problem. Here is the difference between applying medicine to the case and treating according to syndrome differentiation. The symptomatic medicine is only used to solve the symptoms, while the treatment based on syndrome differentiation is to find the cause of disease first and solve the symptoms from the cause of disease.
Here, the doctor reminds male friends that in case of sexual dysfunction, they must go for physical examination. They can go to two or three hospitals for examination and treatment after confirming the cause. Blind treatment will only make the disease more and more serious.
