The *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Symptoms of All Diseases) states: The ear is the gathering point of the Zong Mai (Major Collaterals). When the Zong Mai is deficient, wind-pathogen enters the ear along the collaterals taking advantage of the deficiency, striking against the Qi, thus causing tinnitus.
The *Qianjin Fang* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold) for treating tinnitus sounding like flowing water, which if untreated for a long time becomes deafness:

Blow furnace bottom ash (Fu Xia Hui) full into the ear, letting it go deep. If there is no discomfort, it will naturally form a pill and come out.
