What are the advantages of TCM? What are the pros and cons of Chinese medicine

The theoretical system of Chinese medicine is completely different from that of modern medicine, and the understanding of diseases in Chinese medicine is mostly in a holistic mode, including from the surface to the inside, from the outside to the inside, and its diagnosis and treatment approach is different from that of modern medicine. And it is precisely because the theory of traditional Chinese medicine is different from modern medicine, so some diseases that have bottlenecks in modern medicine, the use of traditional Chinese medicine will receive better curative effects, and we can receive better results in clinical practice, such as some diseases, diseases, digestive tract diseases, and some endocrine diseases. For example, in chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, when the anti-inflammatory** effect is not good, if the use of traditional Chinese medicine is increased, the inflammation can be effectively controlled and the condition improved.

Advantages of traditional Chinese medicine: We can be sure that traditional Chinese medicine is effective, and the efficacy is very good, as long as the dialectical thinking is correct and there is rich clinical experience. Many of them can have immediate effects, and many diseases that cannot be solved by Western medicine, and they are small and have few adverse reactions.

Traditional Chinese medicine has many characteristics**, such as acupuncture, cupping, and scraping, which are worth learning from Western medicine. After all, traditional Chinese medicine is the precipitation of culture for thousands of years, the accumulation of experience, and the existence must have its rationality, and it is Chinese medicine that has guarded our Chinese sons and daughters for thousands of years.

Disadvantages of Chinese medicine: The quality of Chinese medicine has a lot to do with who the doctor who sees you is, because Chinese medicine is more about experience, and some things can only be understood but not spoken, so there is no completely accurate and quantitative standard. Many people say that Chinese medicine is unreliable, that is, because different doctors are prescribed for the same disease, and everyone prescribes it differently, sometimes it is effective, sometimes it is not effective, and no one can say for sure.

In addition, traditional Chinese medicine is generally bitter, not very good, boiled medicine is more troublesome, inconvenient to carry, and the effect is slower. TCM is also difficult to learn because the theories are abstract, the prescription drugs are varied, and the dosage of each medicine is also very different. It is not an easy task to inherit our traditional Chinese medicine culture, and it requires many Chinese medicine students to struggle for it all their lives.

That's a really hard question to answer. After modern medicine entered China, the problem of the existence and disposal of traditional Chinese medicine has never stopped. On the positive side, as a TCM person, I think, it should be her efficacy, unique theory, and advantages.

The drawbacks are also her unique theories, especially after the translator inappropriately translated the foreign hert as the heart, which makes the theory of Chinese medicine more ethereal, that is, unscientific, in fact, the heart of Chinese medicine is not the heart of modern medicine. There is also a disadvantage of traditional Chinese medicine, that is, the problem of education, because of his unique theory, which requires practitioners, individualization, syndrome differentiation and treatment, so teaching cannot be replicated, unlike Western medicine, there are standards for diagnosis, and there are standards. This is also the most failed part of TCM education at present.

There are many benefits of traditional Chinese medicine, which are mainly reflected in the overall concept and syndrome differentiation and treatment.

1. Overall concept. The holistic concept is simply to see people as an organic whole, in the understanding and analysis of the disease also from the whole, will unify the local pathological changes and the overall pathological response, and also pay attention to the overall adjustment of the way, aiming to restore the balance of yin and yang, qi and blood of the patient's body, rather than simply "headache doctor, foot pain doctor".

2. Dialectical treatment. Pattern differentiation is the process of identifying the nature of pathological changes in patients at a certain stage. Treatment is the basic principle of TCM understanding and disease, and it is a special research and treatment method of TCM for diseases.

The treatment is based on the results of dialectic, to determine the corresponding method. The unique method of syndrome differentiation and treatment of TCM determines that TCM treatment is by no means a symptomatic treatment that takes specific countermeasures for a certain symptom, nor is it fundamentally different from the simple identification of the same disease with the same prescription, but one person and one person, and treats them separately.

Traditional Chinese medicine is a precious medical and cultural heritage of the Chinese nation, which has its own unique advantages and inevitably has shortcomings. Patients should not listen to blind letters when seeking medical advice, and should adopt the most suitable way according to the doctor's advice in order to receive the best results.

Traditional Chinese medicine is a treasure of our country, and it still exists in China for more than 2,000 years.

As the saying goes, "Chinese medicine cures the root cause", how does Chinese medicine calculate the root cause?

Traditional Chinese medicine can allow you to return to the state before you got sick, that is, completely, completely eradicate the roots, and you do not need to take any medicine after that, which is the meaning of Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a medicine that allows patients to completely restore their health. So why are there so many diseases that can't be cured by Chinese medicine?

There are many reasons, the important thing is that the patient has been sick for too long, and the disease has been untreatable at the beginning, and the disease has continued to progress, developing to the state of "bad disease", and even to the point of "terminally ill" as the saying goes, so it cannot be cured, or it is very difficult. If this patient finds a Chinese medicine practitioner who understands from the beginning, he will not be able to develop to this extent, and he will be completely **, return to the state before he got sick, and no longer be troubled by the disease. For example, high blood pressure, diabetes, gastritis, kidney disease, etc., including most of the chronic diseases of modern medicine, can be completely ** at the beginning.

In my clinical practice, there are cases of hypertension, gastritis, kidney disease, etc., which are completely cured, and the vast majority of those who cannot be cured are suffering from the disease for a long time and have drug dependence. Also, in the medical cases of those famous doctors in the classics of traditional Chinese medicine, there are completely ** statements. Therefore, we in Chinese medicine should not be led astray by the propaganda of Western medicine, thinking that those chronic diseases are not allowed, and we must take medicine for life.

Now I have more than 20 years of clinical experience, I don't think so, as long as your disease has just been discovered, the disease has just started, a considerable part of it can be completely **, including most of the chronic diseases in modern medicine, it is okay. It is hoped that the majority of patients will understand the advantages of Chinese medicine, find a Chinese medicine that truly understands, and recover their health as soon as possible.

The benefits of traditional Chinese medicine are mainly reflected in the two aspects of holistic view and syndrome differentiation and treatment.

1.The holistic view of Chinese medicine mainly includes the unity of nature and man, which means that the physiology and pathology of the human body are closely related to the climate and environment of nature, and the human viscera system is also a dialectical unity. Therefore, the holistic view includes two aspects, one is the relationship between man and nature, and the other is that the human body as a whole is a unified whole.

2.Syndrome differentiation and treatment, which is also based on the holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine, which takes into account the favorable time and place, as well as people's living habits, according to the time, according to local conditions, according to people's conditions, etc. The details are as follows:

Adapting to the time and conditions: including the onset season and the staging of the disease progression process, this staging is in the early, middle and late stages of the disease course, and the method is different;

Adapting measures to local conditions: In different regions, different climates and environments, people's living habits are different, and the characteristics of the disease are also different, so it is necessary to treat them according to the place;

Adapting measures to people's conditions: This is different from people's innate endowment and acquired physique. Therefore, Chinese medicine is a kind of precision that is harvested as a whole.

Western medicine generally works quickly, while Chinese medicine regulates more slowly, which is the defect of Chinese medicine. However, there are very few Chinese medicines, and Western medicine is relatively large. Traditional Chinese medicine is better at conditioning.

It takes a lot of time to build. West works quickly, but *** is huge. It is recommended that if you have enough time, you should choose Chinese medicine.

1.The theory is solid.

Traditional Chinese medicine theories summarize and seek the root causes and methods of disease formation. Including the theories of the five elements of yin and yang, meridians and viscera, qi, blood and body fluids, etc., all of which reflect the systematic and internal coherence of the theory of traditional Chinese medicine.

2.A long history.

Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history and is an important part of the treasure house of traditional Chinese culture. Traditional Chinese medicine is based on human tissues and organs, as well as their physiology and pathology, and is an important part of the Chinese national medical culture.

3.Long-term accumulation.

Through long-term practice accumulation, TCM has mastered the best characteristics of many Chinese herbal medicines, and recommends the "syndrome differentiation and treatment" method based on individual differences, so as to achieve the purpose of treating symptoms.

4.The results are remarkable.

In the practice of traditional Chinese medicine in many fields, it has been proven that its best effect is real, and the first methods of traditional Chinese medicine for certain diseases are equally effective. For example, more and more studies have proved that the methods of traditional Chinese medicine for stroke, headache, insomnia, menstrual pain, and poor treatment of various diseases are scientific and effective.

5.Keep innovating.

TCM is constantly committed to the research and innovation of modern science and technology, especially the exploration of integrated Chinese and Western medicine and research in related fields, and these collaborative research can promote mutual learning between the two schools and provide impetus for TCM to go global.

6.The effectiveness in clinical practice is widely recognized.

The scope of TCM** covers many ailments such as colds, indigestion, sleeplessness, headaches, arthritis, etc. There are also various methods of Chinese medicine, such as acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, massage, qigong, etc. The effectiveness of these methods in clinical practice has been widely recognized, and many patients have achieved satisfactory results through TCM.

7.Traditional Chinese medicine should be regarded as a unique medical system that does not conflict with modern science. The effectiveness and safety of TCM can be verified through scientific research and clinical trials, and at the same time, the essence of TCM can be combined with modern medicine to serve human health.
