Men with excessive liver fire may experience skin itching. This condition is mainly caused by abnormal regulation of qi and blood in the internal organs. After onset, symptoms such as dizziness, insomnia, headaches, nausea, irritability, and thickened tongue coating may also appear. Additionally, some men might develop yellow urine or constipation. Men with excessive liver fire must quit smoking and drinking alcohol.
