The *Bing Yuan Lun* (Treatise on the Origins and Manifestations of Diseases) states: "Gai Yao" (Sudden Lumbar Injury) refers to a disease caused by sudden trauma to the waist. This is due to damaged blood (stasis) clashing with the lumbar spine; if it persists for a long time without healing, it leads to...
The *Ge Shi Fang* (Formulas from Master Ge) states: "Gai Yao" occurs when the waist suddenly twists or moves improperly, causing strain. Formula for treating severe Gai Yao pain that feels unbearable:
Take fresh *Puerariae Radix* (Kudzu Root), peel it, chew it, and swallow the juice; the more, the better.
Another formula: Crush fresh *Rehmanniae Radix* (Rehmannia Root), squeeze out three sheng of juice, decoct until two sheng remain, add one sheng of white honey, and take orally three times a day. If not cured, prepare another dose.
It also states: Formula for treating pain from blood stasis due to lumbar sprain:
Grind *Cinnamomi Cortex* (Cinnamon Bark), sift to obtain approximately three sheng of powder, mix with vinegar (*Ku Jiu*), and apply to the painful area. Reapply when dry.
Another formula: Moxibustion at the junction of the white flesh on the heel, three moxa cones.
The *Fan Wang Fang* (Formulas of Fan Wang) for treating Gai Yao:
*Sangjiansheng* (Mulberry Mistletoe) growing on mulberry trees, *Lurong* (Deer Antler), *Guixin* (Cinnamon Twig Heart), and *Mudanpi* (Tree Peony Bark), in equal parts, ground into powder. Take one *cunbi* (a measure equivalent to a square inch) per dose, three times daily.

The *Bing Yuan Lun* states: When the Kidney meridian is deficient, it is susceptible to wind-cold pathogens. Accumulated water exists internally; wind-water pathogens clash and soak into the Kidneys. The Kidney Qi becomes fixed internally and cannot circulate freely, thus... Dietary intake remains normal. Over time, this transforms into a water disorder.
The *Qian Jin Fang* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold) states: In the condition known as "Shen Zhuo" (Kidney Fixation), the patient's body feels heavy, the waist feels cold, resembling the sensation of being washed with cold water. There is no thirst, urination is normal and free, and dietary intake is normal.
This is primarily treated with *Shenzhuo Tang* (Kidney Fixation Decoction):
*Gancao* (Licorice Root) (1 liang) *Ganjiang* (Dried Ginger) (2 liang) *Fuling* (Poria) (4 liang) *Baizhu* (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) (4 liang)
These four ingredients are decocted in five sheng of water until three sheng remain. Divide into three doses. The waist will then feel warm. (Note: The *Ji Yan Fang* does not include *Baizhu*.)
The *Fuling Tang* (Poria Decoction) from the *Seng Shen Fang* (Monk Shen's Formulas) treats "Shen Zhuo," characterized by cold pain and heaviness from the waist downward, feeling as heavy as five thousand coins, accompanied by abdominal swelling:
*Yijiao* (Maltose Glue) (8 liang) *Baizhu* (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) (4 liang) *Fuling* (Poria) (4 liang) *Ganjiang* (Dried Ginger) (2 liang) *Gancao* (Licorice Root) (2 liang)
These five substances are decocted in one dou of water until three sheng remain. Strain the dregs, add maltose, and melt it. Divide into four doses.
