论曰久聋者，肾脏虚，血气不足，风邪停滞故也，足少阴经，宗脉所聚，其气通于耳，
若肾脏劳伤，宗脉虚损，血气既衰，风邪乘之，是为耳聋，积久不瘥，劳伤过甚，邪气留滞
，故为久聋也。

论述说：久聋（长期耳聋）的成因，是肾脏虚弱，气血不足，风邪停滞所致。足少阴肾经是众多经脉汇聚之处，其气脉通达于耳。如果肾脏因劳损而受伤，宗脉（汇聚的大脉）虚损，气血衰退，风邪趁机侵袭，这就导致耳聋；若病程长久不愈，劳伤过度，邪气留滞体内，因此形成久聋。

Discourse states: Chronic deafness (long-term hearing loss) is caused by deficiency of the Kidney, insufficiency of Qi and Blood, and stagnation of Wind pathogen. The Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian is where numerous vessels converge, and its Qi connects to the ear. If the Kidney is injured by overstrain, causing the Zong Mai (major converging vessels) to be deficient and damaged, and Qi and Blood to decline, Wind pathogen takes advantage of this to invade, resulting in deafness. If the condition persists without recovery, excessive strain causes pathogenic factors to remain stagnant, thus forming chronic deafness.
