We investigate the self-consistency condition (SCC) of mean-field theory in Walecka model and find that the solutions of the SCC are multiple at high temperature and chemical potential. Using the effective Lagrangian approach, we study medium effects on the $\omega$ meson mass by taking into account of vacuum effects. We show that the $\omega$ meson mass decreases with both temperature and chemical potential with a general tendency, while near the critical point several $\omega$ meson masses become degenerate due to the multiple solutions of the SCC. We check the validity of Brown-Rho scaling law in this case. Finally, we calculate the thermodynamic potential and prove that the multiple solutions of the SCC result from a first-order phase transition of nuclear matter in the Walecka model at high temperature and chemical potential.
