Is what a TCM practitioner can cure the key to understanding and promoting TCM?
From the common insomnia, constipation, hypertension, hypotension, high blood sugar, emphysema, bronchial asthma, heart rate irregularities too fast or too slow, etc., these in the Western medicine need to be lifelong medication to promote the treatment of the disease, Chinese medicine, a dose of the effect of a few days to a dozen days on the cure. Then to the serious uremia, cancer, etc..
Chinese medicine herbal medicine to treat the disease more it, I can not give examples of, all the difficult and miscellaneous diseases can be cured, depending on the degree of pathology and the disease clear.
Chinese medicine: the upper treatment of unhealed diseases, the middle treatment of suspected diseases, and the lower treatment of already-healed diseases.
... The highest realm of Chinese medicine is the treatment of disease, that is, Chinese medicine through the diagnosis, the person is likely to suffer in the future which kinds of diseases, and then the implementation of Chinese medicine means of conditioning, to achieve the purpose of the treatment of disease; Chinese medicine in the middle of the realm of the occurrence of signs of disease, through the means of Chinese medicine to intervene to make it not to form a disease or not to the development of the direction of bad; Chinese medicine in the lowest realm of the treatment of the disease has been confirmed, that is, by the judgment of the certainty of what kind of disease, and then through various means and cure. The lowest level of Chinese medicine is to cure the confirmed disease, that is, to determine what kind of disease it is and then cure it through various means.
... Western medicine belongs to the lowest realm of Chinese medicine in this category, that is, headache, foot pain, can not control the knife.
Most importantly, Chinese medicine can cure diseases before they occur. When the body has positive energy, the evil can not be interfered with. Chinese medicine can regulate the five organs and six bowels, so that the body has the strength to fight against evil diseases.
Chinese medicine has two key elements, one is to prevent diseases and the other is to treat them. Chinese medicine can observe what kind of disease you are going to have by looking, smelling, asking and cutting, and give medicine in time so that the disease won't be born. Western medicine is the disease has been issued only through the instrument to find out. Just like cancer, western medicine can find out that it is advanced, that is, it can't find out when it is sprouting. Chinese medicine through the qi color can watch out. For example, when a person's face is dark, we have to think of liver problems, so do not understand Chinese medicine, please do not smear China.
Chinese medicine can cure any kind of disease
First of all, I do not agree with your statement that Chinese medicine has many advantages over Western medicine in preventing and treating reversible diseases.
Preventively Western medicine has more advantages, for example, we are talking about smallpox, polio, whooping cough which Chinese medicine cannot do anything about, whereas Western medicine has opened up the role of preventive medicine to vaccines and has now eliminated smallpox and polio throughout the world. We can prevent tuberculosis with the BCG vaccine, prevent influenza with the influenza vaccine, and even now develop vaccines to prevent individual cancers, all of which Chinese medicine obviously cannot do.
As for reversible diseases, some do not need to be treated at all, and it is better to exercise. For example, the doctor told me that I had a severe fatty liver, and I did more exercise and lost weight appropriately, and I did not have a fatty liver in my physical examination the next year. Severe fatty liver is also considered a disease, but such a disease treatment or not and what is the use of it, Chinese medicine is certainly another set of conditioning and conditioning theory, it is better to exercise more.
But your "What can TCM cure is the key to understanding and promoting TCM?" is still very true. TCM should be defined on health care and stop talking about curing diseases. This will help the promotion of TCM. Otherwise, all aspects are not as good as others Western medicine, rely on a few Chinese medicine is profound, anti-Chinese medicine is anti-Chinese traditional culture of moral abduction is always difficult to convince people.
The promotion of Chinese medicine is not only to promote what can be cured, but also need to be able to explain to the patient why it can be cured. Pathology, etiology, disease mechanism, etc..
Like going to a Western hospital to see a doctor, the patient will ask the doctor about the cause of the disease and how to treat it, as well as why the production of such methods of treatment. The explanation of the western medicine is more understandable, and the patient usually more or less understand some information knowledge, such as routine blood, urine routine and other physical examination indicators, can also be very intuitive to understand.
Chinese medicine, on the other hand, is not so easy to come up with theories of stored Chinese medicine to explain to patients, it is not very acceptable.
Take for example influenza. Western medicine will say that due to viral infection caused by fever, cough, long nose, etc.. As for viral may not understand very thoroughly, but at least know that for some reason bacteria viruses are inhaled to cause inflammation of the tonsils, redness and swelling, serious bronchitis, pneumonia. These are very most people can know.
Chinese medicine for influenza. Symptoms are also body heat, aching and heavy limbs, dizziness, swelling and pain, turbid nasal discharge, heartburn and thirst. But how to cause, it becomes qi, blood, yin, yang, summer dampness injury to the surface and so on. It can be very confusing for the patient. Literally, summer dampness, is it summer humidity? Injury to the surface, is the skin on the surface of the body? Of course not, but for people who are not in the field of TCM, there is usually no way to understand.
Therefore, if we want to promote Chinese medicine, we have to explain the pathology of Chinese medicine in a way that is easy to understand, and even certain diseases have to have correspondences with Western medicine before they can make sense.
Chinese medicine to prevent diseases, Chinese medicine to cure the symptoms of human discomfort, Chinese medicine to cure the disease that can be self-healing is still good.
