Chinese medicine diagnosis is an integral part of Chinese medicine, which refers to the basic methods of Chinese medicine to diagnose and collect information about diseases, i.e., guided by Chinese medicine theory, mainly using the “four diagnostic methods” to diagnose diseases, investigate the cause, location, nature and situation of diseases, identify the symptoms, make diagnosis of diseases and provide the basis for treatment.
Chinese medicine has developed a complete set of theories, methods, techniques and objects for diagnosing diseases in its long-term medical practice, among which tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis fully reflect the traditional characteristics of Chinese medicine in diagnosing diseases and distinctive Chinese traditional culture and regional characteristics.
The TCM diagnosis method is a unique method of diagnosing diseases in Chinese medicine. With the development of medical science and the extensive exchange between Chinese and foreign cultures, its potential technological and humanistic cultural connotations are playing a greater and greater role.
The principle of Chinese medicine diagnosis method refers to the way of thinking of Chinese medicine practitioners in implementing the diagnosis method. According to TCM, the human body is an organic whole, and there are interactions and cause-and-effect relationships between things, and local pathology is a local reflection of the systemic pathological reaction. Therefore, the pathological changes of the whole body can be reflected in the local area, and the local area can be reflected and embodied in the whole body, and the pathological changes of any internal organs will definitely be manifested in the body surface through various signs, and by examining the symptoms and signs manifested in the body surface, the inner nature of the disease can be measured, which is the basic principle of Chinese medicine diagnosis.
The doctor uses the sensory functions of sight, hearing, smell and touch, as well as talking with the patient or the informed person, to comprehensively understand and systematically grasp all kinds of information related to the disease, so as to guide clinical treatment. The four methods of diagnosis in Chinese medicine, namely, looking, smelling, asking and cutting, are called the “Four Diagnostic Methods”. Each of the four diagnostic methods has its own unique role and cannot be replaced by the other, and must be used in a comprehensive manner in order to make a correct judgment of the disease in clinical practice.
Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment is a unique discipline, and its characteristics can be summarized as follows.
“It is necessary to examine the external manifestations of the body in detail to examine the internal abnormal changes of the body, and at the same time, the patient should be closely integrated with the external natural environment to conduct a comprehensive diagnosis and understand the disease in a comprehensive manner.
The term “all diagnoses together” refers to the need to combine all methods in the diagnosis of disease, to understand the condition comprehensively and objectively, and to conduct a comprehensive examination of all the information collected on the condition.
“Identifying the root cause” means that when analyzing the disease, the root cause of the disease must be sought to provide the basis for further treatment and medication.
“In Chinese medicine, “disease” and “evidence” are two different concepts that are closely related to each other. In Chinese medicine, “disease” and “evidence” are two different concepts that are closely related.
On May 20, 2006, TCM diagnosis method was approved by the Chinese State Council to be included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list.
