论曰肾者,水脏。膀胱者,津液之腑,二经为表里,伤寒热入于脏,流于少阴之经,则
肾受病矣,肾水恶燥,热盛则燥,故渴而引饮。又伤寒邪气,非发汗吐下,则不能除。若发
汗吐下过甚,则亡津液,津液耗多,热气内生,亦令渴也。

论述说:肾,是水液代谢的脏。膀胱,是津液汇聚的腑,这两经互为表里。如果伤寒的热邪侵入内脏,流注于少阴经,那么肾就会受病。肾水厌恶燥热,热势亢盛则导致燥,所以出现口渴而想饮水的症状。另外,伤寒的邪气,如果不通过发汗、催吐或泻下的方法,就不能被清除。如果发汗、催吐或泻下过度,就会导致津液亡失,津液消耗过多,热气内生,也会引起口渴。

Commentary states: The Kidney is the zang organ of water. The Bladder is the fu organ of body fluids; these two meridians are exteriorly-interiorly related. If pathogenic heat from cold damage invades the interior organs and flows into the Shaoyin meridian, the Kidney becomes diseased. Kidney water abhors dryness; when heat is excessive, dryness ensues, thus causing thirst and a desire to drink. Furthermore, pathogenic qi of cold damage cannot be eliminated unless through sweating, vomiting, or purging. If sweating, vomiting, or purging are excessively applied, body fluids are lost. When body fluids are significantly depleted, internal heat arises, which also causes thirst.
