The earliest records of the use of acupuncture and pulse checking for medical treatment exist in ancient Egypt
In September 2007, the U.S. Department of Health journal forwarded the paper " "Acupuncture in Traditional European Medicine", it is argued from a historical perspective that the ancient "father of acupuncture" was a scholar from ancient Egypt and Rome, while the "father of auricular acupuncture" of modern acupuncture is a French scholar; regardless of ancient or modern times, China is the Such excellent imitators have led to global rumors that China is the "Father of Acupuncture".
The paper states that the emergence of acupuncture can be traced back to the Stone Age. At that time, stone tools were used in wars, and were used to relieve pain and cure diseases. This is proved by the discovery of ancient ruins and corpses in Italy. For example, some stab marks on the corpses of soldiers were not battle scars, but were used to relieve pain. Acupuncture marks. Artifacts from 1550 BC collected by the British Museum record the practice of ancient Egyptian residents pricking their ears with hot needles to treat illnesses and relieve pain.
Ancient Egypt also has the earliest record of using the pulse to check the doctor
Translated ancient Egyptian medical records:
If you examine a person with a head injury, the injury goes deep into the skull, but it does not If there is no wound, you should touch his injured area lightly. If you find that his skull is not injured, has no holes, is not cracked or broken, you should make the following diagnosis: "This man has a wound on his head. The wound is not split, although the wound is deep into the skull. I can treat this disease." "You should cover the wound with fresh meat on the first day, and then apply grease, honey, and bandages every day until it recovers.
The so-called "if you check a person" means counting anyone as if you were counting things with a bucket. For examination is like counting certain quantities with a bucket, or counting certain things with fingers, in order to know..., it is to measure... in order to know the movements of the heart. There are channels in it (the heart) that lead to the limbs. If the priest of Sekhme or any other physician puts his hands or fingers on the head, on the back of the head, on both hands, on the pulse, on the feet, he can measure the heart because of its channels in the back of the head, and in the pulse, for its pulsations are in every passage of every limb. He used the word "measure" to describe his injuries because they went to his head, the back of his head, and to his feet...his heart, in order to know the signs that came from it, meaning to measure him in order to know What happened in it.
