Chapter 158: Yuan Yin and Yuan Yang
"Teacher, what are the dangers of kidney yin and kidney yang to the human body?" a student raised his hand, and after getting Wang Ming's consent, he stood up and asked
"What I will talk about next is these two diseases, kidney yin: kidney yin is the embodiment of the role of kidney essence, and all organs of the body must rely on the nourishment of kidney yin, which is the root of yin fluid in the human body, so it is also called "yuan yin". Lesions will occur if the human organs lose the nourishment of the kidney yin, such as the liver is not nourished, the liver yin is deficient, the liver yang is hyperactive, and even liver wind appears; the heart is not nourished, the heart is deficient, the heart is hot, the heart is upset, and the tinnitus is insulated; the brain is not nourished, and the tinnitus is dizzy.
Conversely, when the yin fluid of each viscera is seriously insufficient, it will also lead to a deficiency of kidney yin, such as the invasion of heat and burning the stomach and the lack of stomach yin, which will further damage the kidney yin, which is called "kidney yin drying". Due to the fact that "yin deficiency leads to hyperyang" and "yin deficiency produces internal heat", kidney yin deficiency often causes hot flashes, red cheeks, red tongue, dry mouth and throat, weak pulse and other hot spots, but there is also deficiency and no heat, which is called kidney essence loss.
Kidney Yang: Kidney Yang can promote the physiological activities of various organs of the human body, and is the foundation of Yang Qi in the body, also known as "Yuan Yang".
Deficiency of kidney yang will affect the physiological activities of various organs and cause lesions. For example, if the lungs lose the help of kidney yang, there will be shortness of breath, and the symptoms of insufficient inhalation are called kidney intolerance; if the spleen loses the promotion of kidney yang, there will be symptoms such as diarrhea and incomplete valley; if the heart loses the agitation of kidney yang, there will be palpitations and shortness of breath; chest tightness; lip and tongue bruising and other symptoms of heart yang deficiency; if the bladder loses the gasification of kidney yang, it will cause unfavorable urination or incontinence or inexhaustible drainage or enuresis; edema will occur if the absorption and distribution of jin fluid and the gasification of kidney yang are lost; impotence, spermatozoa, and If the kidney yang fails, there will be dangerous symptoms such as paleness, cold limbs, cold sweat like oil, and a weak pulse, which is called dead yang.
"Yang deficiency is yin prosperity". "Yang deficiency gives birth to external cold". Kidney Yang deficiency will inevitably produce cold symptoms, such as cold limbs, light complexion, cold pain in the waist and spine, love of hot drinks, clear and long urine, loose stool, pale tongue and other symptoms. If the deficiency and cold signs are not obvious, it is generally called "kidney qi deficiency". Kidney Yang deficiency and Kidney Yin deficiency are both kidney deficiency, which are basically the same, and the difference lies in whether there is an obvious cold sign. ”
"So what is their relationship, and if they are at the same time, how should they be argued?"
"This question is on the point, let's talk about their interrelationship first, kidney yin and kidney yang are two aspects of kidney physiology. The function of nourishing all organs of the body is called kidney yin, and the role of promoting the activities of various organs of the body. It is called Kidney Yang. Kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency are two aspects of kidney pathology. The nature of the two is different. Yin and yang, cold and heat, are two opposing aspects. However, the two cohabit in the kidneys, which is the specific manifestation of kidney essence and kidney qi. It is also inextricably linked. Yin fluid needs to be driven by yang energy, and yang energy needs yin fluid as the foundation.
Kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency often affect each other, and the pathological phenomenon of yin deficiency and yang or yang deficiency and yin appears. When the symptoms of kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency appear at the same time, we cannot treat them equally, and we must analyze them specifically to see which aspect plays a leading role in pathological changes. Focusing on kidney yin deficiency, it is necessary to nourish essence and blood in the treatment, so that the kidney yin is sufficient, and the kidney yang can be invigorated. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is theoretically called "essence and qi". Focusing on kidney yang deficiency, the first thing to do in treatment is to cultivate vitality. Only by making the kidney yang vigorous can the kidney yin be restored. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is theoretically called "essence and blood cannot be born quickly, and the vitality should be strengthened". We must also note that in the course of the development of the disease, the main position of kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency will change, and the focus of treatment will change accordingly.
Syndrome differentiation approach to renal and bladder disease. It refers to a syndrome differentiation method that analyzes and summarizes the syndrome of kidney and bladder diseases according to the physiological functions and pathological manifestations of kidney and bladder diseases, so as to judge the pathogenesis, nature and prosperity and decline of kidney and bladder diseases. The kidney is located at the waist, one on the left and one on the left, and the three focal points are divided into the lower focal parts, and its function is mainly to store the essence. The main reproduction, the main bone is full of marrow, the body is the bone, the opening is in the ear and the two yin, its bloom is in the hair, and the main water, and has the function of absorbing qi, which is the innate foundation. The bladder is also located in the lower coke, which has the function of storing urine and urination, and the meridians and the kidneys belong to each other, and the two are on the outside. Common symptoms include soreness and pain in the waist and knees, tinnitus and deafness, whiteness and early loss, tooth shaking, impotence and spermatozoa, sperm loss, sperm deficiency and infertility, oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea and edema in women, and abnormal stool. Bladder lesions are common with symptoms such as urinary frequency, urgency, dysuria, urinary closure, enuresis, and urinary incontinence. Diseases that predominate with the above symptoms can be identified as kidney or bladder disease. The kidney is the root of human growth and development, and the foundation of the functional activities of the viscera. …,
This method is often used for the differentiation of palpitations, insomnia, vertigo, tinnitus, deafness, asthma, phlegm drinking, fatigue, dysentery, low back pain, edema, diarrhea, enuresis, blood in the urine, urine turbidity, seizure, exertion, ointment, thirst, fetal restlessness, infertility, infertility, five delays, five softness, craniolysis and other diseases. The main syndromes of kidney and bladder lesions are: kidney qi deficiency pattern, kidney yang deficiency pattern, kidney yin deficiency pattern, kidney yin and yang deficiency pattern, kidney qi instability pattern, kidney intolerance qi pattern, kidney essence deficiency pattern, kidney yang deficiency water pan pattern, kidney meridian cold and damp pattern, bladder damp heat pattern, bladder deficiency and cold pattern, and attention should be paid to the identification of similar patterns. ”
"Distinguish the evidence of kidney essence insufficiency, can the teacher say what dialectics are based on?"
"Renal sperm deficiency syndrome refers to the syndrome of renal sperm deficiency and low reproductive and growth and development functions. It is often caused by insufficient congenital endowment, or uncontrolled intercourse, excessive depletion of kidney essence, and its clinical manifestations are developmental retardation in children, short stature, delayed fontanelle, mental retardation, weak bones, or premature aging in adults, hair and tooth loss, tinnitus and deafness, insomnia and forgetfulness, or infertility in men or infertility in women, decreased sexual function, and weak tongue and pulse. Wang Ming nodded and replied with a smile, he didn't blame these students for these simple questions, because he knew how the current College of Chinese Medicine was teaching students, and how the current students were learning Chinese medicine.
"What about the evidence of kidney yin deficiency?"
"Kidney yin deficiency syndrome refers to the syndrome manifested by kidney yin deficiency, loss of moisture, and endogenous deficiency of heat. It is often caused by long-term illness and fatigue, uncontrolled intercourse, or in the later stage of warm fever, burning kidney yin. Its clinical manifestations are dizziness and tinnitus, soreness in the waist and knees, forgetfulness, hair loss and tooth shaking, premature ejaculation of sperm in men, impotence and easy to lift, oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea in women, or collapse and leakage, five heart irritability, cheek redness and night sweats, bone steaming hot flashes, emaciation, less urine and yellow color, red tongue without moss, and thin pulses. This syndrome is characterized by kidney yin deficiency and endogenous deficiency of heat as the main pathogenesis. ”
