足少阴肾经的经脉,起始于足小趾下方,斜向行走至足心(涌泉穴),出于然骨之下(然谷穴),沿着内踝后方(太溪穴)前行,分支进入脚跟中(太钟穴),向上行至内踝上方(复溜穴),出于大腿内侧后缘(阴谷穴),上行穿过脊柱,归属于肾脏,联络膀胱。其直行者从肾脏上行,贯穿肝脏和膈肌,进入肺部,沿喉咙分布,夹持舌根。其支脉从肺部分出,联络心脏,注入胸中(自此与手厥阴心包经相交)。
当本经发生病变时,会出现饥饿但不想进食、面色黑如炭色、咳嗽唾血、喉间鸣响且气喘、坐立不安、视物模糊如同看不见东西、心中悬空感如同饥饿、气虚则容易恐惧、心神不宁好像有人要抓捕自己一样,这称为“骨厥”。本经主要主管肾脏所生的疾病:口热、舌干、咽喉肿痛、气逆、咽干及疼痛、心烦心痛、黄疸、泄痢、脊背、臀部、大腿内侧后缘疼痛、痿证、厥冷、嗜睡、足下发热而痛。若施灸,可增强食欲并促进肌肉生长(即勉强饮食以生肌肉);治疗时应松解腰带、披散头发、手持大杖、穿着厚底鞋缓步而行。脉象方面,实证时寸口脉搏比人迎脉搏大三倍;虚证时寸口脉搏反而小于人迎脉搏(出自《灵枢》)。○酉时气血自至阴穴开始,沿涌泉穴循行,经膝部上行至胸部府穴止(出自《入门》)。○少阴经根于涌泉穴,结于廉泉穴(出自《灵枢》)。

The Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian originates below the little toe, slants towards the sole of the foot (Yongquan, KI 1), emerges below the prominence of the medial malleolus (Rangu, KI 2), follows the posterior aspect of the medial malleolus (Taixi, KI 3), and a branch enters the heel (Taihong, KI 4). It ascends along the medial side of the leg (Fuliu, KI 7), emerges at the posterior medial border of the thigh (Yingu, KI 10), penetrates the spine, connects with the Kidneys, and links to the Bladder. The straight branch ascends from the Kidneys, passes through the Liver and diaphragm, enters the Lungs, follows the throat, and flanks the root of the tongue. A collateral branch emerges from the Lungs, connects with the Heart, and pours into the chest (where it intersects with the Hand-Jueyin Pericardium Meridian).
When this meridian is affected, symptoms include hunger without desire to eat, complexion as dark as charcoal, coughing up blood in sputum, wheezing and asthma, restlessness (desiring to sit but unable to remain still), blurred vision as if unable to see, a sensation of the heart hanging empty as if hungry, and Qi deficiency leading to frequent fear or palpitations as if someone were about to arrest them; this is termed "Bone Jue". This meridian primarily governs diseases generated by the Kidneys: heat in the mouth, dry tongue, swelling and pain in the throat, rebellious Qi, dryness and pain in the pharynx, vexation, heart pain, jaundice, intestinal dysentery, pain in the spine, buttocks, and posterior medial border of the thigh, flaccidity syndromes, cold extremities, drowsiness, and heat with pain in the soles of the feet. Moxibustion can strengthen appetite and promote muscle growth (forcing food intake to generate flesh); treatment involves loosening belts, letting hair down, carrying a large staff, wearing heavy shoes, and walking slowly. In pulse diagnosis, excess patterns present with the Cun position pulse being three times larger than the Yingchou position pulse; deficiency patterns present with the Cun position pulse being smaller than the Yingchou position pulse (from *Ling Shu*). ○ At You hour (5-7 PM), Qi flows from Zhiyin to Yongquan, ascending via the knee to the chest, ending at Fuwei (KI 27) (from *Ru Men*). ○ The Shaoyin meridian roots at Yongquan and knots at Lianquan (from *Ling Shu*).
Yongquan (KI 1): Two acupoints located in the depression of the sole when the toes are curled (from *Tong Ren*). ○ Yongquan refers to the center of the sole; it is accessed while running (from *Ling Shu*). ○ Located in the depression at the junction of the white and red skin on the sole (from *Zi Sheng*). ○ In the center of the sole (from *Ru Men*). ○ This is the Jing-Well point where the Foot-Shaoyin meridian emerges. Needle insertion depth is 3 fen, retain for 7 breaths. Moxibustion is contraindicated; if moxa is applied, it may cause paralysis or impaired movement (from *Zi Sheng*).
Rangu (KI 2): Also known as Longyuan. Two acupoints located in the depression below the prominent bone anterior to the medial malleolus (from *Tong Ren*). ○ Rangu is located below the prominence of the medial malleolus (from *Ling Shu*). ○ One cun directly below the anterior aspect of the medial malleolus (from *Zi Sheng*). ○ This is the Ying-Spring point where the Foot-Shaoyin meridian flows. Needle insertion depth is 3 fen, retain for 3 breaths. Bleeding should be avoided; excessive bleeding may induce hunger and desire to eat. Moxibustion of 3 cones is permissible (from *Ling Shu*).
Taixi (KI 3): Also known as Lvxi. Two acupoints located in the depression of the arterial pulse above the calcaneus behind the medial malleolus (from *Tong Ren*). ○ Five fen behind the medial malleolus, in the depression between the calcaneus and the arterial pulse (from *Ru Men*). This is the Shu-Stream point where the Foot-Shaoyin meridian pours. Needle insertion depth is 3 fen, retain for 7 breaths. Moxibustion of 3 cones is permissible. ○ If a patient has this pulse, they will live; if absent, they will die (from *Tong Ren*).
Taihong (KI 4): Two acupoints located in the center of the heel, 5 fen below Taixi. This is where the Foot-Shaoyin collateral diverges to the Taiyang meridian. Needle insertion depth is 2 fen, retain for 7 breaths. Moxibustion of 3 cones is permissible (from *Tong Ren*).
Zhaohai (KI 6): Two acupoints located below the medial malleolus, near the nail bed, where the Yin Qiao vessel originates (from *Tong Ren*). ○ Ask the patient to sit steadily with soles facing each other; locate the depression at the junction of red and white skin (from *Gang Mu*). ○ Four fen below the medial malleolus, slightly anterior to the small bone (from *Ru Men*). ○ Needle insertion depth is 3 fen. Moxibustion of 7 cones is permissible (from *Tong Ren*).

Two acupoints in the depression between tendon and bone two cun above the medial malleolus (from *Tong Ren*). ○ In the arterial pulse two cun posteriorly above the medial malleolus (from *Ru Men*). ○ Two cun above the medial malleolus, pulsating continuously (from *Ling Shu*). ○ This is the Jing-River point where the Foot-Shaoyin meridian travels. Needle insertion depth is 3 fen, retain for 3 breaths. Moxibustion of 5 cones is permissible (from *Tong Ren*).
Jiaoxin (KI 8): Two acupoints two cun above the medial malleolus, anterior to the Shaoyin meridian and posterior to the Taiyin meridian, in the opening between bone and tendon... the Xi-Cleft point of the Yin Qiao vessel (from *Tong Ren*). ○ In the depression between bone and tendon, three cun anterior to Sanyinjiao (SP 6) and two cun above the medial malleolus (from *Ru Men*). ○ Needle insertion depth is 4 fen, retain for 5 breaths. Moxibustion of 3 cones is permissible (from *Tong Ren*).
Zhubin (KI 9): Two acupoints two cun above the medial malleolus... the Xi-Cleft point of the Yin Wei vessel (from *Tong Ren*). ○ Posterior to the bone, between the large and small tendons; locate with the knee flexed. Needle insertion depth is 2 fen. Moxibustion of 5 cones is permissible (from *Ru Men*).
Yingu (KI 10): Two acupoints under the large tendon and above the small tendon posterior to the medial condyle of the tibia (from *Tong Ren*). ○ Posterior to the medial condyle, under the large tendon and above the small tendon; an arterial pulse is felt upon pressure; locate with the knee flexed (from *Ling Shu*). ○ This is the He-Sea point where the Foot-Shaoyin meridian enters. Needle insertion depth is 3 fen, retain for 7 breaths. Moxibustion of 3 cones is permissible (from *Tong Ren*).
Henggu (KI 11): Also known as Xiaji. Two acupoints one cun below Dahi (from *Tong Ren*). ○ In the central depression of the pubic bone, curved like an inverted moon, 1.5 cun lateral to Qugu (CV 2) (from *Ru Men*). ○ Moxibustion of 3 cones is permissible; needling is contraindicated (from *Tong Ren*).
