Talk about the real tongue

"Biography of Hua Tuo in the Later Han Dynasty": "I am also familiar with the classics and know the art of nature."

In the history of China, there was such a famous doctor. He is regarded as a master of medical skills in China, and also known as an ancient surgeon in China. He is Hua Tuo, a doctor who is not interested in his career and only lives for CoCo Lee. The era when Hua Tuo lived was the era when the princes competed for hegemony at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was also a period of constant war and people's misery. In order to save the people's suffering, he traveled all over the great rivers and mountains of the motherland with his own feet to save those who were suffering from diseases, leaving many touching stories.

Hua tuo's superb medical skills

Hua Tuo's medical skill is very brilliant, which is reflected in many ancient books. Regrettably, however, due to Hua Tuo Ding Zhao 'an warlord Cao Cao, he was killed in prison, and his medical works were lost to the world, leaving only a Han Zang Jing written by the Song Dynasty, which also contained some prescriptions of Hua Tuo. It's interesting for Hua tuo to see a doctor. He pays attention to the right medicine and the patient's taboos. For example, once Hua Tuo forbade a patient to share a room with his wife, but the patient refused to listen, and he still shared a room. As a result, he stuck out his tongue and died three days later.

This is not a folklore, but a real case recorded in history books. This patient is You's son. His full name is not recorded in the historical materials, only his surname is Dun, that is, Dun. Deng has a certain disease and has been taking medicine for many years. This symptom should recur once a month. After asking Hua tuo for a prescription, he miraculously recovered and never relapsed, which made Deng very excited and thought that his serious illness had finally recovered.

In order to express his gratitude, he focused on finding Hua Tuo and thanked him. As a result, Hua Tuo felt his pulse and told him that his illness was not completely cured. In the next few days, Hua Tuo refused to let the patient share the same room with his wife. He had to have a good rest before he could fully recover.

The patient didn't listen. The next day, although Deng knew that he had broken the ring, he didn't care too much. He just asked his wife to cook him a bowl of chicken soup, intending to mend his body. As a result, he stuck out his tongue and died three days later. After learning of Dunmou's death, Hua Tuo could only lament that the other party did not listen to the doctor's advice and could only seek his own death.

Diagnostic method of Huatuo

Besides, there are many short stories about Hua Tuo, the most famous of which is the origin of the idiom "suit the remedy to the case". One day, two people discovered Hua Tuo at the same time. Both of them have the same body heat and headache, and the symptoms are exactly the same. However, after taking their pulse, Hua Tuo prescribed two completely different prescriptions for them. After getting the prescription, the two still thought that Hua Tuo had prescribed the wrong medicine, but they got a positive answer from Hua Tuo, saying that it was completely correct and just went back to get the medicine. A few days later, the two people really recovered. At this time, I went to Huatuo again and learned that although the symptoms are the same, the causes are completely different, so I prescribed two completely different prescriptions, which is the origin of the right medicine.

Although Hua Tuo's life was short, he left us many wonderful stories, and even told us the profoundness of China's medicine and the greatness of the doctor profession. Finally, I pay tribute to everyone in the medical field.
