戊戌年八月，淮南地区发生大水灾，城墙下被洪水浸泡长达数月，我突然脏腑功能失调，腹中发出如水声轰鸣的症状持续数日，经过调理治疗后痊愈。从此以后腰痛严重到不能屈伸折转，甚至面部也受到影响（因疼痛牵连），遍服各种药物均无效，这种情况持续了三个月。我后来反思，这必定是水气阴寒过盛，肾经受此邪气侵袭所致，于是艾灸肾俞穴三七壮，服用此药后病愈。

In August of the Wuxu year, there was a major flood in Huainan. The area below the city walls was submerged for months. I suddenly experienced dysfunction of the internal organs, with roaring water-like sounds in my abdomen lasting for several days. After adjustment and treatment, I recovered. Since then, I suffered from severe lower back pain that prevented flexion and extension, which even affected my facial expression due to pain referral. Various medicines were taken without effect. This condition persisted for three months. Later, I reflected that this must have been caused by excessive Yin pathogenic water qi invading the Kidney channel.
