There is a tree whose bark can be used as medicine, which has the effect of relieving pain, especially good at relieving low back pain, and it is Eucommia ulmoides.
There is an old folk saying: "If you have pain in the lower back, eat eucommia." "Whether it is kidney deficiency and low back pain, rheumatic low back pain, or low back pain caused by lumbar muscle strain, eucommia can be used. There are not a few friends who have low back pain, and today we will talk about it in detail. "The waist is the house of the kidneys, and if you can't shake, the kidneys will be exhausted. "The first thing that comes to mind for low back pain is a kidney problem. Although rheumatism and low back pain caused by external evil are caused by rheumatism from the outside world invading the human body, paralyzing the meridians, and causing pain if it is not passed. But if there are no internal worries, how can there be external troubles. What are internal worries? It is a lack of righteousness. The ancients said that the kidney is the foundation of innate nature, and the kidney contains the innate essence, that is, the righteous qi, and the righteous qi is stored in the body, and the evil cannot be done. If it weren't for the kidney deficiency that gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of, how could there be back pain, so painful that he couldn't pitch? So in the final analysis, it is necessary to replenish the kidney, and to replenish the kidney is to replenish the correct qi and cure the root cause. Eucommia ulmoides tonifies the liver and kidneys, so that the righteous qi is sufficient, and it can drive away evil spirits. Sedentary people are more likely to suffer from lumbar muscle strain, because sitting for a long time hurts the kidneys, and modern society is full of air conditioning, air conditioning blows, internal and external troubles.
Eucommia is used in the waist, and it is a representative medicine for the waist. "Medicinal Properties" said that Eucommia ulmoides is beneficial to the kidneys and adds essence, and removes the weight of the waist and knees. That is to say, eucommia can nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen muscles and bones, and strengthen the waist and knees.
Ren Zhai Zhizhi Fang records that Eucommia ulmoides is a medicine for low back pain, where the deficiency of the lower coke, the non-eucommia is not supplemented, the dampness of the lower coke, the non-eucommia is unfavorable, the pain of the waist and knees, the non-eucommia is not removed, the soreness of the feet and shins, and the non-eucommia does not go.
Eucommia ulmoides is an ancient tree species, as early as the Fourth Ice Age, tree species similar to Eucommia ulmoides have been extinct one after another, because of the strong terrain support of our country, Eucommia ulmoides barely survived here.
Eucommia ulmoides is the bark of the eucommia tree, which is very thick, if it is broken, it will be pulled down and pulled with silk, and the broken silk will still be connected.
It's like breaking a bone, and it's connected to the tendons, and the fascia can be retracted. Therefore, Eucommia ulmoides is also called bakelite, and it is also called "pulling silk skin".
Low back pain, it hurts like it's broken, Eucommia ulmoides, you see that it not only nourishes the liver and kidneys, but also connects the threads when it is broken, so the back pain recovers very quickly!
There is also a saying among the folk that "waist pain, pork loin pot eucommia". Therefore, when it comes to low back pain, people think of Eucommia.
However, there are many causes of low back pain, which can be kidney deficiency, lumbar muscle strain, lumbar disc herniation, etc., and not all low back pain is suitable for drinking eucommia soup.
Let's summarize that the following three kinds of low back pain are especially suitable for eating eucommia.
1. Kidney deficiency and low back pain.
The kidney is the foundation of innate nature, the root of human reproductive development, and the driving force of the functional activities of the viscera.
The role of the kidney can be divided into two aspects: kidney yin and kidney yang, which are interdependent and mutually restrictive, maintaining the dynamic balance of yin, yang, qi and blood in the human body.
When the balance of yin and yang is disrupted, kidney deficiency manifests.
Kidney deficiency low back pain will have symptoms such as backache, back pain, weakness of the lower limbs, drowsiness, insomnia, dreaminess, and easy awakening.
2. Lumbar muscle strain with liver and kidney weakness.
The low back pain caused by lumbar muscle strain can be divided into liver and kidney weakness type and cold-damp type under the syndrome differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine, among which people with liver and kidney weakness are more suitable to eat Eucommia ulmoides.
Liver and kidney weakness type low back pain has certain characteristics, that is, low back pain is reversed, but it is not significantly related to weather changes.
They like to rub their hands on their waists, and their condition will be relieved after rest, and they may be accompanied by numbness of hands and feet, tinnitus, and dry mouth and throat.
Cold and wet type of lumbar muscle strain, the low back pain will be significantly aggravated after rainy days, cold or fatigue, like warmth and cold, standing for a long time, the waist will be obviously sore, poor activity.
This kind of low back pain is not suitable for eating eucommia, you can consider drinking barley and ginger mutton soup (50 grams of barley, 20 grams of ginger, 250 grams of mutton, add an appropriate amount of water to make soup, seasoning and accompaniment).
3. Lumbar intervertebral disc herniation.
Since most people will have varying degrees of kidney deficiency in the middle and late stages of lumbar disc herniation, at this stage, you can choose to nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen the muscles and bones, and regulate qi and blood.

Mulberry parasitism nourishes the liver and kidneys, dispels rheumatism, and is parasitic on the leafy stems and branches of mulberry trees. The dog's spine is just shaped like the backbone of a dog, and because it has fluff, it is called a dog's spine. The dog's spine nourishes the liver and kidneys, strengthens the waist and knees, and strengthens the muscles and bones. I don't know if you have noticed it, but most of the Chinese medicinal materials with strong muscles and bones have villi on the surface, such as broken bones. Like Eucommia, Sichuan is also a special medicine for the waist and kidney. Cistanche is characterized by both yin and yang, and can be used for both yin and yang deficiency. Chicken blood vine through the meridians, and can replenish blood, while passing and replenishing.
