In the former type, there are symptoms of frequent and urgent urination, pain in urination, urinary hesitation, residual urine, pain in the perineum, pubis, scrotum, and testes.

In addition to the symptoms of dysuria, patients of kidney deficiency type also have the symptoms of soreness and weakness of the lumbar region, insomnia and dreaminess, cold limbs and abnormal sexual function. Kidney deficiency is one of the main causes of night sweat, so patients of kidney deficiency type are prone to sweat at night.
