Acute Nephritis

40 year old male patient came in due to pain in his foot. As he is talking about his symptoms, he tells me he starts to feel some sharp pain on left side of his low back. He had an episode of kidney stones and felt the same pain then...  His face turns red and he says his back pain is so excruciating he can't even walk.

Minutes later he calls his MD and was told he seems to have acute nephritis.  Since he cant even walk I gave him some treatments as follows:

SP 3 -  without any improvement (so it wasnt Spleen --> Kidney issue)
Kd 2 - (right side)    pain significantly decreased... 10 to almost 0.
Kd 10 + added (right side) 

after 15 minutes he tells me pain is gone.  He didn't have TCM heart signs such as palpitation...

I called him next day and found out he was fine.
