耳鸣和耳聋的病症，是因为肾属于足少阴经，主藏精气，其经络之气通达于耳。耳是全身宗脉汇聚之处。如果精气调和，那么肾气强盛，就能清晰地分辨五音。如果因劳累损伤了血气，又兼受风邪侵袭，风邪积聚在肾脏，导致精气耗脱，就会引起耳聋。如果血气不足，宗脉就会虚弱，风邪乘虚侵入耳中，与体内的气相互搏击，从而造成耳聋。

Tinnitus and deafness arise because the Kidney belongs to the Foot-Shaoyin meridian, stores essence (Jing), and its qi connects to the ears. The ears are the gathering point of the Zong Mai (Grand Vessels). If essence and qi are harmonious, Kidney qi is robust, allowing for clear discrimination of the five tones. However, if labor and fatigue damage blood and qi, and wind pathogen invades concurrently, accumulating in the Kidney and causing depletion of essence and qi, deafness results. If blood and qi are insufficient, the Zong Mai become deficient; wind pathogen enters the ears following this deficiency and strikes against qi, resulting in deafness.
To treat chronic deafness, nourishing the Kidney and strengthening bone qi, use Ci Shi Shen Geng Tang (Magnetite Pork Kidney Soup).
Ingredients: Ci Shi (Magnetite) (one jin, crushed, washed with water to remove red juice, wrapped in cotton); Zhu Shen (Pork Kidney) (one pair, fat membrane removed, finely sliced).
Preparation: Use five sheng of water to boil Ci Shi until two sheng remain. Remove Ci Shi, add the kidney, and season with Cong (Scallion), Chi Shao (Fermented Soybeans), Jiang (Ginger), and Jiao (Pepper) to make a soup. Consume on an empty stomach. It can also be prepared as porridge or taken with wine.
To treat deafness caused by Kidney qi deficiency and weakness, use Lu Shen Zhou (Deer Kidney Porridge).
Ingredients: Lu Shen (Deer Kidney) (one pair, fat membrane removed, sliced); Jing Mi (Oryza Sativa Indica Group, Glutinous Rice) (two he).

Preparation: Cook ingredients together into porridge. Season with Wu Wei (Five Flavors/Seasonings), Cong (Scallion), and Chi Shao (Fermented Soybeans). Consume on an empty stomach.
