From ancient times to the present, famous doctors, including acupuncture masters, all started with diagnosis.

Of course, at present, the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine mainly consists of two books: Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Diagnostics of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In fact, these two books are far from enough.

For example, you have a toothache patient, which is a very clear symptom. According to acupuncture, of course, it is mainly Hegu, Shimonoseki and Walking. All right, then wind-fire plus external clearing, stomach-fire plus internal chamber, and yin deficiency plus Taixi.

But how do you know what kind of toothache the patient has? What channel is the patient's illness on? Is it dirty or in the intestines? What kind of yin and yang is it? Is it related to other diseases?

If you can find out what the patient's condition is through four consultations, then a few simple points can solve the problem. On the other hand, even if more than 400 acupoints are cleared, if a patient comes, he doesn't know which acupoint to use, whether it is tonic or diarrhea, and he doesn't dare to prick the needle at all.

Of course, Chinese medicine is the same.
