Why is there Western medicine in the world?

1. Western medicine refers to medicine that originated from ancient Greece. What the Chinese call Western medicine now is actually called modern medicine.

Chinese officials have political purposes for calling modern medicine Western medicine; 2. Every nation in the world has its own medicine or treatment system. For example, China has Han medicine, Greece has Greek medicine (i.e. Western medicine), India has Indian medicine, and Egypt has

Egyptian medicine, Arab people have Arabic medicine, South Africa has South African medicine, Indians have Indian medicine, South American Mayan medicine, etc.

Other ethnic groups in China include Mongolian medicine, Tibetan medicine, Miao medicine, Hui medicine, etc.

However, except for Chinese traditional medicine and a handful of countries and ethnic medicines, most other countries and ethnic groups have abandoned their own traditional medicine (some traditional medicine is earlier than traditional Chinese medicine and is more extensive and profound) and have adopted scientific modern medicine.

; Sooner or later, Chinese medicine will be abandoned, because the theoretical basis of Chinese medicine is metaphysics (a small branch of ancient philosophy). Today, Chinese medicine can be in the mainstream medical position, not because it can cure diseases, but because of the needs of the political system.

If the future changes, Chinese medicine will withdraw from the stage of treating diseases, and Chinese medicine will also withdraw with it.

Because the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine cannot withstand rigorous clinical trials.
