肾脏主管腰部和下肢。如果肾脏虚损,风冷之邪乘虚侵袭,就会导致腰痛。另外,邪气客居在足太阳膀胱经的络脉,也会使人腰痛。
一曰风寒着腰。是因为风寒之邪附着于腰部,所以疼痛。
二曰肾虚。劳役过度损伤肾脏,所以疼痛。
三曰坠伤腰。或者因坠落伤及腰部,所以疼痛。

The Kidney governs the waist and lower limbs. If the Kidney is deficient and damaged, wind-cold pathogens may take advantage of this deficiency to invade, resulting in lumbar pain. Additionally, if pathogenic factors lodge in the collaterals of the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian, it can also cause lumbar pain.
First, cold-wind adhering to the waist. Pain occurs because cold-wind pathogens adhere to the waist.
Second, Kidney deficiency. Pain occurs due to excessive labor or exertion damaging the Kidney.
Third, falling injury to the waist. Pain occurs from falls or injuries affecting the waist.
Fourth, sleeping on damp ground. Pain occurs from lying or sleeping in damp environments.
