Why is Chinese medicine still very popular in modern times when science is popular?

In the long history of ancient China, we all know that China had four inventions that amazed the world: papermaking, printing, gunpowder and compass. In fact, in addition to these four achievements, there are many other great achievements in ancient China, such as the majestic Great Wall of Wan Li, the magnificent Forbidden City and the highly practical Chinese medicine. Today, Bian Xiao is here to discuss with you why Chinese medicine can still stand up in the long history, even in the modern times respected by western medicine.

First, Chinese medicine has a long history, which is different from that of western medicine. Can be traced back to the primitive society, working people accidentally discovered the magical efficacy of Chinese herbal medicine. Hua Tuo, a famous doctor in the Eastern Han Dynasty, left a deep impression in China and even the world with his superb medical skills. Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica in Ming Dynasty played an important role even in modern society.

Second, the role of Chinese medicine As a major branch of the medical field, Chinese medicine plays a considerable role. In the past, western medicine was underdeveloped and lacked modern medical conditions and equipment. In China, it is always treated by Chinese medicine. Even though many hospitals now have Chinese medicine, many diseases can't be cured by western medicine. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine has quick effect and good effect.

Third, the absolute cost performance of Chinese medicine Nowadays, many people say that they can't afford to get sick and look down on it. In fact, this sentence is mainly aimed at western medicine with high treatment costs, because western medicine is generally a patent medicine, and western medicine examination requires specific instruments and equipment, which leads to relatively high examination costs. Chinese medicine adopts the methods of listening, listening and asking questions. Many experienced Chinese medicine masters can give accurate treatment plans by communicating with patients and observing their signs. Moreover, the price of Chinese herbal medicine is relatively low, and sometimes the cost of a course of treatment is not as good as that of a western medical examination.

Traditional Chinese medicine is a treasure of traditional culture in China, so we should protect this culture and carry it forward.
