It has been known for a long time that diseases can heal themselves. The treatise on fever (Suwen) has a statement that “if the seven days of the disease are not enough, the headache will be less healed”; the treatise on typhoid fever has a statement that “if the headache of a sun disease is healed by itself after seven days or more, it is because the meridians are exhausted”; and “if the disease is sweated, if vomited, if given down, if the blood is lost, and if the fluids are lost, it will be healed by itself”. The 398 sutras in the Treatise on Typhoid Fever have as many as 17 articles on self-healing, which is quite touching. Pan Yueli, Department of Pediatrics, Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine 1, the time frame of the disease and the disease heals itself. The disease has its own law, “sun disease” seven days, “headache” can be self-healing, and “typhoid fever, syncope five days, fever also five days. Set six days, when the syncope, not the syncope since the healing. The end of the syncope is only five days, to heat five days, so know that self-cure”, indicating that some diseases, especially some shallow, light disease, in the patient’s positive energy, the internal organs and conditions, can be completely through their own regulation and resistance to evil out. For example, the cold, because most of the viral infection, if you can adhere to more water, more rest, give the necessary physical or drug cooling, generally 3-5 days can be self-healing, without special treatment, as the so-called “positive energy within, evil can not dry”. The typical clinical feature of the rash is that after 3-4 days of fever, the rash is similar to a cold, and is a self-limiting viral infection. However, many doctors are habitually giving antibiotics, hormones, and even leukocyte-raising drugs, which not only wastes resources and increases the economic burden of patients, but more seriously damages the internal environment of the body and prolongs the course of the disease. The British Medical Journal has published a similar article, arguing that the best treatment for the 60 most common diseases is often not implemented by a large body of research evidence.2. Symptoms of disease and disease self-healing. The appearance of a symptom in the course of the disease may be a sign that the disease will heal itself, for which there are many discussions in the Treatise on Typhoid, such as “Sun disease, the pulse is floating and tight, fever, body without sweat, since the blood ugly is healed”; “after the great down, repeat sweating, urine is unfavorable, the death of fluids. Do not treat it, get a small convenience, will be healed by itself”; “Sun disease is not resolved, heat knotted bladder, the person is like crazy, blood from the lower, the lower is healed”; “Shao Yin disease, tight pulse, to seven or eight days from the lower profit, pulse violent micro, hands and feet against the warmth, tight pulse against the go, for the desire to solve, although annoyed, lower profit, will be When the patient is “troubled and sweating”, “pulse counted and thirsty” or a woman with typhoid fever and heat entering the blood chamber, “delirium like seeing a ghost”, there is no need for treatment. It is a sign that the disease will heal itself without treatment. Therefore, doctors are required to not only treat the disease with medicine, but also to recognize the signs of healing, and to treat or not to treat the disease can reflect their medical level to a certain extent. How to identify these symptoms, which requires doctors must be multi-level, all-round understanding of the disease, must be carefully analyzed, but not to unnecessary treatment. This is called “the upper work of treatment”, “the lower work of treatment”. 3, the care of the disease and the disease since healing. After the disease care is an indispensable part of the healing, this point “typhoid” to give full recognition, such as “sun disease, after sweating, sweating out, stomach dry, irritable can not sleep, want to get to drink water, less and less with the drink, so that the stomach and gas will be healed”, and “the patient’s pulse has been resolved, but the day is slightly annoyed, to the new poor disease The patient’s pulse has been relieved, but he is slightly annoyed at sunset, because the disease is new and poor, the person is strong with the grain, the spleen and stomach gas is still weak, can not eliminate the grain, so make slightly annoyed; loss of grain is healed”, suggesting that disease treatment, not necessarily must be medicine, sometimes give less water to help sweat, the disease is healed, or just control the diet can also be cured. These ideas are especially valuable in today’s times. For example, asthma patients, fat, sweet, greasy, fishy, fried and dry, will certainly produce phlegm and fire, and the disease will not be cured, repeated attacks. Therefore, post-illness care is also one of the means to treat the disease. As we all know, “treating the disease before it happens” is the idea of Chinese medicine in treating diseases, and likewise, emphasizing that “the disease can heal itself” and not over-treating is also the idea of Chinese medicine in treating diseases. At present, because of many factors, many diseases, especially autoimmune diseases and infectious diseases, are often in a situation of over-treatment, and cases of deterioration of the disease are frequently reported.
