What is Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine is the originator of who ah?

China is one of the earliest countries in the birth of medical culture, from the dawn of civilization in the canopy of Asia, when the land, the prehistoric cultural bonfires all over the land of God, from point to point connected to form a prairie fire, gradually melted in the civilization of the age of light. From then on, the civilized history of Chinese medicine began. China's five thousand years of written history of medicine, due to the development of the characteristics of the Oriental culture of the formation of China's unique theoretical framework, and the modern impact of Western science and the introduction of Western medicine, the emergence of two distinct levels, in the intersection of East and West in the complexity of the state of medical polymorphism. Among Chinese traditional medicine, Han Chinese medicine has the longest history and the richest practical experience and theoretical understanding. Chinese medicine originated in the Yellow River basin of China and established its academic system very early. In the long process of development of Chinese medicine, there have been different creations in different generations, many famous doctors have emerged, and many important schools and masterpieces have appeared. Chinese history, "Shennong tasted a hundred herbs ...... one day and met seventy poison" legend, reflecting the ancient working people in the struggle against nature and disease in the process of discovery of medicines, the accumulation of experience in the process of hardship, but also the origin of traditional Chinese medicine in the production of a true portrayal of labor. As early as in the Xia, Shang and Zhou periods (about the end of the 22nd century BC - 256 years ago), China has appeared in the medicinal wine and soup. The Western Zhou Dynasty (about 11th century BC - 771 BC), the "Book of Songs" is the earliest book in the existing Chinese literature that contains records of medicines. The earliest surviving theoretical text on Chinese medicine, the Nei Jing, puts forward the doctrines of "what is cold is hot, and what is hot is cold", "what the five flavors enter", and "what the five organs desire to be tonic and diarrhoeal", which lays the foundation of the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine. The earliest existing pharmacological monograph "Shennong Ben Cao Jing" is the Qin and Han Dynasties (221 B.C. - 220 A.D.) many medical practitioners to collect, summarize the rich pharmacological information since the pre-Qin Dynasty and become a book. This book contains 365 kinds of medicines, which are still used in clinical practice. Its introduction marked the initial establishment of the science of traditional Chinese medicine. More than 3,000 years ago, in the oracle bones of the Yin and Shang dynasties, there were already records about health care and more than ten kinds of diseases in China. The Zhou Dynasty already used methods of diagnosis such as looking, smelling, questioning and cutting, as well as therapeutic methods such as medicine, acupuncture and surgery. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, works with systematic theories such as the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine were formed. This book is one of the earliest surviving theoretical classics of Chinese medicine. Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Miscellaneous Diseases of Typhoid" was devoted to the identification and diagnosis of various miscellaneous diseases and the principles of treatment, laying the foundation for the development of clinical medicine in later generations. Surgery in the Han Dynasty was already at a high level. According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, Hua Tuo, a famous doctor, began to use general anesthetics "Ma Bo San" to perform various surgical operations. From the Wei, Jin, North and South Dynasties (220 - 589 A.D.) to the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties (581 - 960 A.D.), pulse diagnosis made outstanding achievements. The Pulse Classic by Wang Shuhe, a famous physician of the Jin Dynasty, summarized 24 types of pulse signs. The book not only had a great influence on Chinese medicine, but also spread abroad. The specialization of various disciplines of medicine had matured during this period. Acupuncture and moxibustion monographs are "Acupuncture and Moxibustion A and B Jing"; "Holding Park Zi" and "After Elbow Fang" are the representative works of alchemy; Pharmaceuticals have "Lei Gong Gun Baking Theory"; Surgery has "Liu Juan Zi Ghost Legacy Square"; "the origin of the disease and the theory of the etiology of the disease" is the cause of the monographs, "Cranial fontanel scripture" is the pediatrics monographs; "Newly Revised Materia Medica" is the first Pharmacopoeia of the world; ophthalmology monographs have "Yin Hai Jing Wei", and so on. In addition, the Tang Dynasty also has Sun Simiao's "Thousand Golden Essentials" and Wang To's "Secret Essentials of Wai Tai" and other large-scale prescription books. The economic prosperity of the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907 AD) promoted the development of traditional Chinese medicine. The Tang government took the lead in completing the compilation of the world's first pharmacopoeia, the Tang Ben Cao. The book contained 850 kinds of medicines, and drug atlases were also added, further improving the scale pattern of Chinese pharmacology. In the Song Dynasty (AD 960--1279), there was a major reform in the teaching of acupuncture and moxibustion. Wang Weiyi authored "copper acupuncture points acupuncture charts", and later, he designed and manufactured equilibrium large acupuncture bronze two, teaching for students to practice operation. This initiative had a great impact on the development of acupuncture and moxibustion in later generations. During the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644 AD), a group of medical doctors proposed to separate the areas of typhoid fever, warm disease and warm epidemic. By the Qing Dynasty, the doctrine of warm disease reached a mature stage, with the appearance of monographs such as the Treatise on Warmth and Fever. Starting from the Ming Dynasty, Western medicine was introduced into China, and a group of medical doctors advocated the "convergence of Chinese and Western medicine", which became the precursor of the contemporary combination of Chinese and Western medicine. In the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644 AD), Li Shizhen, a medical scientist, spent 27 years to complete the Chinese herbal medicine masterpiece "Compendium of Materia Medica", which contained 1892 kinds of medicines and became the greatest integrated work in the history of Chinese herbal medicine. After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, extensive research was carried out on the botany, identification, chemistry, pharmacology and clinical medicine of traditional Chinese medicine, providing a scientific basis for the establishment of the source of the drug, identification of the authenticity of the herbs, and explanation of the mechanism of action. On the basis of the national census of the sources of medicines, the national and local "Chinese Medicine Journal" was prepared in 1961, and the publication of "Dictionary of Chinese Medicines" in 1977 made the number of Chinese medicines recorded in the dictionary reach as many as 5,767 kinds. At the same time, a variety of Chinese medicine tools, many local herbal monographs and Chinese medicine newspapers and magazines have appeared one after another, a variety of Chinese medicine research, teaching, production organizations have been established. All of the above is a synopsis of the magnificent history of ancient Chinese medicine. Such an uninterrupted medical culture and civilization, which stretches over thousands of years, is rare in the history of world medicine. The large number of classical Chinese medical books, the number of famous doctors and the number of people in the same period of time in the world is also rare. Chinese traditional medicine has a strong vitality, which develops with the advance of the times. After the impact with modern medical culture, confrontation to the combination, but also pay attention to the advanced culture from abroad to learn useful things, so there is a Chinese and Western confluence of the exploration of codification. Traditional medicine is moving towards modernization. In the past hundred years, China's modern medicine, traditional medicine and the combination of Chinese and Western medicine will make an objective reproduction and comment on the history of modern Chinese medicine in the past hundred years. The history of Chinese medicine is indispensable to the study of ancient Chinese medicine, to the study of modern medicine, to the comparative study of different systems of medicine, and to the work and discipline of medicine, teaching, research and health management. It covers a wide range of time and space involved in the long and broad, not other disciplines can be replaced.
