Yesterday, I guess I answered the question of whether a disease can be “cured” no less than 20 times in one day of clinic, probably because we are a Chinese hospital. It is generally believed that Chinese medicine can “cure the root cause and remove the root”. My understanding is that Chinese medicine, like Western medicine, is just a method of treating illnesses, and to say that Chinese medicine cures the root is just a different way of thinking between Chinese medicine and Western medicine. Chinese medicine believes that the cause of disease is not a single factor, but the result of the patient’s living environment, emotional state, external disease and other factors acting in concert. Therefore, the treatment of the disease requires both the use of medicine and the explanation of related dietary contraindications and lifestyle modifications. Simply put, the TCM model is closer to the bio-psycho-social medicine model that is being advocated today. Wang Lijun of the Department of Dermatology at Wuxi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine We know very little about the human body, even in today’s scientific world, so it’s difficult to eliminate a disease once and for all. We all know that herpes zoster usually comes only once in a lifetime, but I can meet some patients who have had it twice or even three times in the clinic.
