Sleeping at night with dreams and dry mouth may be due to insufficient kidney yin.
When Kidney-Yin is insufficient, Deficiency Fire disturbs the heart and mind (Deficiency Fire invades the head and face and other parts of the body upwards), and the heart and mind are disturbed, making it easy to dream at night. In addition, when Kidney-Yin is insufficient and the Deficiency Fire burns the Yin fluid, it makes one’s Yin fluid deficient and gives rise to the symptom of dry mouth and tongue.
These patients like to drink water at night, but drinking water still can’t relieve the patient’s dry mouth, the root cause of which lies in the deficiency of kidney essence, and it is necessary to nourish the kidney yin to alleviate the symptoms.
It is recommended that patients with night dreams and dry mouth should keep a relaxed mind before going to bed, to ensure a comfortable environment during sleep, and usually can use Chinese herbal medicine such as wolfberry to nourish the kidney yin in water, to promote a smooth sleep at night and alleviate the symptoms of discomfort.
If the patient sleeps at night and the symptoms of dry mouth continue to not be relieved, it is recommended to go to the hospital in a timely manner, and ask a professional Chinese medicine practitioner to identify and treat the symptoms to promote the recovery of the condition.
