We often say that "hearing and seeing", which refers to the human ear hearing and eye response are very sensitive, describe the person's mind is clear, keen eyes. So, how can we achieve "hearing"?
The kidney opens in the ear
According to Chinese medicine, the kidney begins in the ear.
With the kidney failure of qi in the kidney, people's hearing will also change accordingly.
Such as infants and young years, kidney essence is full and not full, born and not full, and not full, the hearing is weak, the ability to listen to sound discrimination is poor, and listen not far; Young and strong years, the kidney is full of Qi, the ear is sufficient, so the hearing is bright and sensitive, listening to the sound far away, and the ability to distinguish the sound of speech is strong; In old age, the essence of the kidney gradually decreases, the incarnation is weak, the essence of the ear is insufficient, so the hearing gradually declines, the sound is slow, the sound is difficult to hear, and even the hearing is deaf.
Therefore, hearing changes with age and changes in physical fitness.

Liver depression and fire can induce earache and ear distension.
In the eyes of Chinese medicine, the back of the ear represents the liver. When the work and rest confusion, anger caused by liver fire, liver depression, tinnitus will also appear.
Deficiency of the spleen and qi leads to tinnitus. The spleen and stomach are acquired, when the spleen and stomach is damaged, causing fatigue, loss of appetite, abdominal distension and loose stool and other problems, it may also lead to ear discomfort. "Huangdi's Inner Classic" wrote: "Stomach hollow then zong pulse deficiency, deficiency then slip, pulse is exhausted, so tinnitus."
