Thinking medicine

Thinking comes from my recent medical experience. Before telling the story, let me briefly explain a term called "Uyghur medicine", which is a traditional medical system with Uyghur national characteristics on the basis of accumulating and developing local medicine and absorbing the essence of medical culture in different regions and nationalities in the East and West.

According to Uighur medical theory, the causes can be divided into four categories, namely, dry cold, dry heat, wet cold and damp heat. When I see such a theoretical basis, I know that this view is not welcomed by mainstream medicine, because the theoretical basis of mainstream medicine is based on current science and is constantly developing. Comparatively speaking, the summary of these four reasons is so backward. But I think this ancient classification method also has its own place.

Such as in the field of health care. There is such a situation that some people, looking listless and sick, go to the hospital for examination and everything is normal. This situation has corresponding conditioning methods in Uygur medicine. I dare not say how reliable this experience-based medical association is, but I want to share some examples of this kind of medicine around me. This medicine cured my father's psoriasis as early as 2004. Recently, I adjusted my stomach, so that I, a guy who didn't eat fat since I was a child, began not to reject fat. I think it is amazing. I always think there should be something written here.

I think so, and maybe many people think so. People are a whole, and there are many reasons for some diseases, which may be genes, climate, bacteria and viruses. Therefore, the same disease may be caused by different reasons. If we only treat the disease itself without removing the real cause. Then the disease is easy to recur. Many drugs in western medicine take effect quickly and are of great use to acute diseases, but I prefer this traditional medicine to those that need to be recuperated slowly, such as the stomach. In my opinion, western medicine tends to strike with precision, while traditional medicine tends to be uprooted.

Modern medicine seems to have a sign of compatibility, because many Chinese medicine hospitals can perform surgery. Although the "Uyghur Medical Hospital" near our home seems unable to perform surgery, there are B-ultrasound, CT examination and blood test. I also believe that with the continuous development of science, the existing empirical medicine will be slowly verified, leaving the really useful ones, removing those deceptive ones and providing us with better medical services.
