Doctor's nickname

In ancient China, doctors were called Chinese medicine, four nicknames of Chinese medicine-Huang Qi, Qingnang, Xinglin and Hanging Pot.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a traditional medicine in China with a history of thousands of years. Today's appellation is relative to western medicine. Before western medicine flowed into China, Chinese medicine was not called Chinese medicine, which had unique connotation and rich appellation.

Now that this name is known to everyone, it is rarely used. Its origin is related to Hua Tuo, a famous doctor in the Three Kingdoms period. It is said that before Hua Tuo was killed, in order to repay a jailer for offering him wine and meat, he was given a green bag full of medical books. After Hua Tuo's death, prison guards also practiced medicine, which made part of Hua Tuo's medical skills handed down. Accordingly, later generations called Chinese medicine clearing the bursa.
