Ji Chun violates summer rules and is prone to epidemics. Since the pre-Qin period, large-scale diseases such as virulent infectious diseases and plagues have been clearly documented. The wheels of history are rolling forward, but life is the most precious.
As early as ancient times, people began to conduct in-depth research on diseases to preserve life. At that time, it was widely believed that plague could occur in any season because the weather changed too quickly, causing it to be human"gas"Instability.
Since people are medically blind, they can only put the blame on nature, and they can only speculate about the cause of the plague.
From the pre-Qin period to the Han Dynasty in ancient China, people were already aware of the existence of plagues.
This is clearly stated in the Yellow Emperor's Neijing, the earliest ancient Chinese medicine ancient text, stating that plague is contagious, epidemic, and has the same symptoms, such as diarrhea and vomiting.
Although the symptoms have been revealed, people still can't find the cause of the disease and the first method. However, there is a strategy recorded in the book: "Righteous qi is stored inside, and its poisonous gas is avoided".
This means that as long as the behavior is upright, the righteousness will persist in the heart, and with the righteousness, you can prevent infection. On the contrary, if you behave suspiciously every day and always do bad things, then you may be the next person to get sick.
The Yellow Emperor's Neijing, which reveals the wisdom of ancient Chinese medicine, is known as China's earliest medical classics and one of the four classics of ancient medicine. During the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, the physique of the literati became the key to life and death, and the weak were prone to early death.
According to the preface to the Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases, in the Jian'an Chronicle (196 AD), many people in a large family surnamed Yu suffered from a disease, and the mortality rate was extremely high, and two out of three people died.
The disease is similar to typhoid fever, but its consequences are more serious, incurable, and easily contagious. According to modern scientific understanding, this disease is most likely a virulent infectious disease.
Although the Yellow Emperor's Neijing was born in ancient times, its deep understanding of human physiology, pathology and disease prevention and treatment still has a profound impact on modern medicine.
Historically, plague has been one of the main causes of population decline. During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Zhi, one of the "Seven Sons of Jian'an", became one of the most outstanding literary youths of that era with his talent and cultural influence.
In "Speaking of the Plague", he depicted the phenomenon of people putting various charms on their doorsteps in order to prevent the plague, which shows that people's understanding of the plague at that time was still in the stage of "ghosts and gods", and believed that the spread of the disease was uncontrollable.
However, Cao Zhi has a different opinion, which he believes is caused by "the misalignment of yin and yang, and the mistiming of cold and heat". Another "Seven Sons of Jian'an", Wang Cang, also vividly depicted the cruel scene of the epidemic at that time in "Seven Mourning Poems".
Wang Cang wandered across the plains, his bones white. He is a true recorder and speaks bluntly. This is a portrayal of an epidemic, and it is true.
From Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, in the past 70 years, there have been at least 17 epidemics in the Han Dynasty, and the people have suffered unspeakably, life is impermanent, and life is short.
The disease is ruthless, affecting the powerful, among the seven sons of Jian'an, Liu Zhen, Chen Lin, Ying Ling, Xu Gan, literati are sick, and they all died of epidemics.
Ancient anti-epidemic hero Ge Hong: Using traditional Chinese medicine to fight the plague Ge Hong was a medical scientist in the Jin Dynasty and a pioneer in epidemic prevention and control. Not only did he have an in-depth knowledge of the plague, but he was also a practitioner in the development of the drug ** plague.
He believed that all infectious diseases should be regarded as a disease, and in view of the infectious characteristics of diseases, he developed many traditional Chinese medicines, such as Biwen Disease San, Du Miasma San, Lao Jun Shen Ming San, and Plague Medicine Gansan.
These drugs are all ground from traditional Chinese medicine and have the characteristics of inducing vomiting. Although the effectiveness of these drugs needs to be further studied, Dr. Ge's scientific research on plague-like diseases has undoubtedly contributed to the development of epidemic prevention and control.
Chao Yuanfang of the Sui Dynasty is a person who deeply understands the concept of "prevention is better than **". He noticed that whenever the weather was bad, cold and hot, the plague would rage.
To this end, he suggested that the green grass miasma and yellow mangmia in the Lingnan region of China, which are regarded as common diseases, should be included in the scope of epidemic control. Dr. Chao Yuanfang also emphasized that there should be not only **, but also prevention.
He advocated physical fitness and hygiene in daily life to effectively combat diseases. His forward-looking and constructive viewpoint is worthy of our deep thought and study.
Chao Yuanfang was a famous medical scientist in the Sui Dynasty, and he presided over the compilation of "Treatise on the Origin and Syndrome of Diseases", which is known as an encyclopedia of traditional Chinese medicine. By the Tang Dynasty, medical research had developed further.
Sun Simiao's Qianjin Fang is an important work of ancient Chinese medical research.
In this book, Sun Simiao cites Wang Bing's views on plague, which he divides into five categories: gold plague, wood plague, water plague, fire plague, and earth plague, arguing that plague is not a single disease, but a disease complex composed of many different diseases.
This medical idea of distinguishing between common diseases and plagues, and subdividing plagues, is a great advance in the field of medicine and a deepening of people's understanding of diseases.
In ancient times, people understood and dealt with diseases in a very different way than they do today.
Zhang Congzheng, a medical scientist in the Song Dynasty, recorded in his book "Confucian Affairs, Volume 1" that most of the plague patients he took over and treated, most of the patients had symptoms like colds, qi deficiency and body cold, which made many inexperienced doctors mistakenly think that it was a minor illness and did not pay enough attention to it.
However, these patients do not receive effective ** and often die after two days of treatment. In addition, the use of croton by Song Dynasty doctors to treat diseases was also a major problem.
Croton is a strong laxative, and doctors will make patients take two catties of croton, regardless of what disease they have. As a result, the patient's condition did not improve, but instead died due to a drug reaction.
Although plague was uncommon in the Song Dynasty, the way in which it was dealt with was deeply worrying.
In the face of the epidemic, Zhu Danxi's"Trilogy"The plan is undoubtedly the right thing to do. First of all, we should pay attention to the basic conditioning of the body, supplement nutrition, ginseng and deer antler velvet are good choices.
Then,"It is advisable to disperse", which is to shave off the hair and help the body flush out toxins. Finally, passed"It is advisable to fall"Lowers the body temperature of patients with high fever and maintains vital signs. This trilogy, simple yet practical, will definitely help you overcome the epidemic.
During the Ming Dynasty, when Wu Youke was faced with the plague raging in the Central Plains, he summarized the methods of the plague in the past dynasties and wrote a work called "Treatise on Warm Epidemics", which analyzed the essence of plague in an all-round and non-blind way, believing that it is a virus that exists in nature, and is not caused by colds, physical weakness or life triggers.
Wu Youke's avant-garde ideas have been widely recognized in modern times, and many effective epidemic prevention and methods have been recorded in the "Treatise on Warm Epidemics", which can be called an epoch-making work.
This work is still used today as a clinical guide for modern medicine and is one of the compulsory books for medical students.
During the Qing Dynasty, although medicine had made great progress, the prevention and treatment of plague should not be taken lightly.
On this basis, medical scientist Yu Shiyu further conducted in-depth research and successfully developed the "Qingwen Septic Drink" to fight against the epidemic, which was recognized as the "special medicine" of the first plague at that time.
Although people have a relatively in-depth understanding of the plague, it is still necessary to wait for the transformation and development of scientific civilization in order to realize the transition from ancient medicine to modern medicine.
Since the Qin Dynasty, the ancient people have been familiar with isolation, and when the plague outbreak was large-scale, the city was closed, urban control and other means were adopted, and today's anti-epidemic measures such as vaccination technology and free ** policy have also been initially applied in ancient times.
It is particularly worth mentioning that traditional Chinese medicine has accumulated rich experience in the struggle against epidemics for thousands of years, and has a non-negligible enlightening role in the research, prevention and control of current epidemics and infectious diseases.
