Several signs of kidney deficiency
There is a connection between the feet and the kidneys, and if you notice the following changes in your feet, be wary:
The kidneys are responsible for the body's water metabolism and circulation, if the kidneys have problems, the water in the body cannot be discharged normally, and the water flows to the middle and lower parts of the body to the soles of the feet, resulting in excessive accumulation of cell fluid in the feet, and the muscles lose their elasticity, and the symptoms of edema naturally appear.
The reflex zone of the kidneys is on the soles of the feet and the heels. If there is a sudden pain in the heel without a wound and without a lot of walking, it may be related to kidney deficiency and loss of kidney qi.
When the kidney qi is insufficient, there may be uneven force on the feet. If you usually walk normally, but the wear and tear of your heels increases, you should pay attention to the health of your kidneys.
For those with healthy kidneys, toenails should be ruddy, smooth, and shiny.
However, if the kidneys are damaged, the blood circulation of the body is blocked and the metabolic function is weakened, and the color of the toenails may be whitish and yellow.
Generally speaking, cold feet mostly occur when the weather is cold, and if you often feel cold feet when the temperature is right, it is likely to be caused by kidney yang deficiency.

How to take care of the kidneys
If you have any of these symptoms, it's important to take good care of your kidneys.
Usually eat more foods that nourish the kidneys, such as black beans, black sesame seeds, chestnuts, etc. Of course, the prevention and treatment of kidney deficiency cannot be achieved by relying on a single drug or dietary therapy, but also by relying on an appropriate amount of exercise to move the muscles and bones of the whole body.
Today I will teach you a method of massaging acupoints to replenish the kidneys - rubbing the hearts of the feet + pressing the waist!
There is a spring acupoint on the soles of our feet, and regular massage can benefit the kidneys and promote sleep, and have a certain effect on dizziness, insomnia, tinnitus and other symptoms caused by kidney deficiency.
[Acupoint]: Yongquan acupoint is in the front 1/3 of the sole of the foot and the depression of the flexed toes.
【Massage method】After we warm both hands, rub the left hand on the right foot and the right hand on the left foot, 1 time in the morning and 1 time in the evening, 300 times each time.
As for the waist, it is the house of the kidneys, and stimulating the life-gate acupoints and kidney Yu acupoints in the waist helps to increase kidney qi.
[Acupoint]: The Mingmen acupoint is located under the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebra, at the same level as the navel;
The Kidney Yu acupoint is located 1.5 inches on both sides of the Mingmen acupoint.
【Massage method】We also rub the palms of the two hands together until the palms are hot, and then place them at the Mingmen acupoint and the Kidney Yu acupoint, and massage the waist up and down, 1 time in the morning and 1 time in the evening, about 200 times each time.
