Who was called a medical saint in history?

Zhang Zhongjing of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a veritable "medical sage", achieved the greatest success not because of his superb medical skills, but because of his most important book Treatise on Febrile Diseases in the medical history of China. This book is a compulsory course for almost every Chinese medicine practitioner from the Eastern Han Dynasty to modern society. Over the past two thousand years, Chinese medicine has saved countless lives with this encyclopedia of Chinese medicine. In addition, Zhang Zhongjing also established a method of dialectical treatment of traditional Chinese medicine. The useless feudal superstition treatment method is directly excluded from the Chinese medicine system. In addition, it is worth mentioning that Compendium of Materia Medica is also written on the basis of Treatise on Febrile Diseases, which has been widely recognized by the Chinese medicine community.

Zhang Zhongjing also won high praise from ordinary people at that time because of his superb medical skills and medical ethics. China traditional food "jiaozi" was invented by Zhang Zhongjing. At first, jiaozi was called Joule because it was shaped like an ear. It is mainly made of Chinese herbal medicines for sweating and strengthening yang and mutton, aiming at treating the poor with frostbite.

The idiom "suit the right medicine" also describes Zhang Zhongjing. Its original intention is to understand the different causes of the same symptoms, so as to carry out corresponding treatment. However, the treatment method is not limited to drugs, but also can be other methods, as long as it can cure the disease, without any means.

Zhang Zhongjing, with his years of research on common folk diseases, has treated countless ordinary people with his superb medical skills, and even created immortal medical works, leaving a well-known allusion. It is no exaggeration to call him a medical saint.
