Formation and development
The historical background of eastern and western cultures is the soil for the formation and development of Chinese and western medicine. Zhang Zhongjing and Galen, two great medical masters of the East and the West in the 2nd century A.D., inherited different academic ideas, created different medical paradigms, developed and perfected different theoretical systems, and made Chinese and Western medicine take two completely different development paths.
Before Treatise on Febrile Diseases written by Zhang Zhongjing, a physician in the Han Dynasty, there were classic medical classics such as Neijing, Difficult Classic and Herbal Classic. Zhang Zhongjing summarized the medical achievements before the Han Dynasty, inherited the basic theories such as Neijing and rich medical knowledge, and combined with his own clinical practice, wrote Treatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases. Its contribution lies in the establishment of the theoretical system of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment, which has laid a solid foundation for the development of TCM clinical medicine in later generations.
