Sorry TCM doesn’t work that way, we treat the person as a whole, not the disorder. We look at the tongue, observe the skin, eyes, hair...we take the pulse, ask questions on sleep, digestion, diet, immune system...and then we make a TCM diagnosis and create a treatment plan accordingly 🙏

[@IloveCamels335]

Wonderful video! I am totally new to TCM but trying to figure out what’s wrong with me and Western medicine has no answers. I never had any kidney issues in all my life (in my mid Forties). However lately my kidneys are paining a lot. I do not have any urination problems no bladder issues no UTI that much i am certain. Also went to take tests and kidney function all looks perfect (egfr 117 no protein in urine, lowest level creatinine, so they are definitely doing their job well) So why do they hurt i wonder. At the same time i was getting swollen feet (edema), never used to have that either. It improved a little when i added lot of extra electrolytes but still not totally resolved. And yes before i forget to mention it i do drink enough, I tried drinking even more but kidney pain not going away. And the third thing that seems to be connected is the eyes. For the last weeks i keep having infections and they are red and with discharge. Eye doctor just said take antibiotic eyedrops but i intuitively know its not an eye problem per se, it must be connected to the other issues. Really dislike the Western approach where they look at everything separately when in fact its all connected. Trying to figure this out as usually i am healthy and strong but last few weeks just off. Can emotional issues be connected as per TCM? As i am going through a big loss in my personal life. Could that manifest in such a way? Many questions 😇

[@Acuproacademy]

Thank you for sharing your story, and sorry for your loss 🌷 yes emotional trauma can cause many physical issues. I would suggest you go see a qualified acupuncturist in your area to guide you 💗

[@ab78001]

Auto urine therapy ie shivambhu kalpa can probably help with kidney jing/essence deficiency. Urine is NOT a waste product.

[@Acuproacademy]

I know I went to a cow sanctuary while in India and saw how they use cow urine for medicinal purpose 🙏🥰

[@ab78001]

@@Acuproacademy yes. Urine is pure plasma ultrafiltrate. It's the exact same plasma running through our veins at any given time. But we've been culturally indoctrinated (in the name of science) to think of urine as a toxic waste product and to therefore feel aversion, fear and even disgust towards it. And so we pee away our own perfect medicine. It's as costly for us in the long run as semen non-retention is. Porn also drains kidney jing. No wonder so many men are going bald and testosterone is falling.... I think in this day and age, UT is an essential daily practice for deep glandular level, essence-level healing and regeneration.

According to TCM, what is the harm of holding urine?

[@Acuproacademy]

No harm if it’s for a few minutes but hours and repeatedly would weaken the bladder 🙏

Is kidney essence deficiency kidney failure? Can we understand this way?

[@Acuproacademy]

Not at all 🌷 The physical kidneys are different from the kidney meridian and Chinese Medicine energy dedicated to it 🙏 KD Essence deficiency is premature aging

can someone be both yang and yin deficient at the same time?

Absolutely 👍

[@Anadolu276]

The patient does not experience urinary incontinence, but there is frequent urination, the feeling of urinating after urinating, and difficulty in urinating towards the end of the urination. What is the reason?
