What do you mean by being afraid of illness and doctors?

Fear of illness and medical treatment means hiding one's shortcomings and mistakes for fear of criticism. Fear of disease and doctors is an idiom in China, which is used as subject, object and attribute in sentences. It originated from Han Fei's "Han Fei Yu Zi Lao" in the Warring States Period. Avoiding illness and medical treatment are synonymous with covering up the past. Both "avoiding illness and avoiding medical treatment" and "whitewashing mistakes" mean "hiding one's own shortcomings or mistakes". And "fear of illness and avoiding medical treatment" focuses on "fear of criticism and unwillingness to accept help"; "whitewashing mistakes" refers to finding various reasons or excuses to cover up mistakes and shortcomings.

The meaning of avoiding disease and medical treatment:

If Cai Huangong could treat Bian Que when he first pointed out that he was ill, it would not aggravate his illness, let alone kill him. In fact, in real life, we should not only treat diseases as early as possible, but also accept everyone's criticism and correct our shortcomings as soon as possible to avoid making big mistakes.

Everything in the world has a development process from scratch and from small to large. "The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant nest, and the room of 100 feet burned in the smoke of the sudden gap." When bad signs appear, we must not be afraid of getting sick and avoid seeking medical treatment, but face them bravely and actively seek solutions to avoid causing greater disasters.
