It is stated that "Kidney Heartache" refers to pain in the heart region radiating to the back, accompanied by spasms (muscle convulsions), a sensation as if an object is striking the heart from behind, and a stooped posture. This occurs because the Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian passes through the spine and connects with the Kidneys; its straight branch ascends through the Liver and Diaphragm into the Lungs, while its branch emerges from the Lungs, links with the Heart, and pours into the Chest. Currently, due to Kidney Deficiency, rebellious Qi attacks the Heart, causing the pain to radiate to the back and inducing spasms, creating the sensation of an object touching the Heart.
