We can often see the phenomenon that Chinese and western medicine adopt completely different technical means for the same object. For example, the pulse diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine stipulates more than 30 pulse conditions, each of which has important diagnostic significance; Another example is many symptoms described by Chinese medicine, such as "the back is as cold as the palm of your hand" and "the neck is stronger than the back" and so on.

Under special circumstances, it is often of key significance. However, most of these pulse and symptom data are difficult to understand when they are obtained by western medicine system, so it is difficult to be adopted by western medicine. Because this diagnostic technique can't be explained meaningfully in the cultural system of western medicine, it can't be recognized in the western medicine system.

On the other hand, the techniques of looking, touching, tapping, listening and theoretical diagnosis of western medicine are developing constantly, and the resolution is improving day by day, so a large number of clinical data can be obtained, which is very clear and clear for western medicine.

But what if this set of clinical data, such as laboratory tests, ultrasonic reports or tomographic photos, is given to a Chinese doctor who doesn't know western medicine at all? Can this group of clinical data be treated with yin-yang exterior-interior cold and heat deficiency and excess? Obviously not.

So is this phenomenon caused by simple technical differences? Before answering this question, let's look at the technical differences between Chinese medicine and western medicine: Chinese medicine's understanding of technology mainly has three characteristics: first, it places special emphasis on knowledge and operating rules, which are often regarded as an element; For example, in Neijing, excellent doctors with certain medical knowledge, experience and operational skills are called "workers".

Those who are full of bad records, "three unprepared, five ill-treated, don't ask for extra thoughts, don't ask for health, and are also rough doctors" are called "rough workers"; Second, technology also includes the experience, skills, abilities and methods gained from learning from teachers or accumulated by oneself; Therefore, if "you don't learn from art, but you are wrong, you will change from ancient times to normal and follow yourself automatically" (Wang, see O? Neon account? "Difensan 1 Huai 'an Performing Acrobatics".

Third, it basically does not contain materialized means. The difference between the technical concept of western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine is mainly manifested in three aspects: first, there are fewer elements containing theories and knowledge rules; Secondly, following the invention and application of medical materials and tools such as stethoscopes, syringes and surgical instruments, the status and role of tools and equipment in technology are increasingly strengthened, and today's technology is increasingly becoming the result of the materialization of scientific theories.

Third, the experience, skills, rules and methods in technology are no longer just stored in the human brain, but "software" materialized through facilities such as computers.

It can be seen that the technical differences between Chinese and western medicine are great. For the former question, we can't blame Chinese medicine practitioners for not knowing western medicine, nor can we blame western medicine practitioners for not knowing Chinese medicine. Even people who are familiar with Chinese and western medicine use two technical systems when processing the diagnostic data obtained by their respective technologies.

So what is the reason for this difference? The technical differences are superficial, not major and essential. Because medicine is not only a practical technology, but also a social culture. As a sub-component of the cultural system, technology is not only inseparable from the alliance of papers of the whole culture, but also restricted and dominated by the whole culture.

Technology is only the materialized form of culture, and what specific form it takes is always the product of some cultural instruction. Therefore, different types of culture dominate different types of technology. According to this principle, the technical differences between Chinese and western medicine are essentially determined by the cultural differences between Chinese and western medicine.

The theory of traditional Chinese medicine originates from the ancient culture of China, which makes traditional Chinese medicine have extremely distinctive humanistic medical characteristics. The unique geographical environment has caused obvious differences between China's ancient culture and European culture. In ancient China, on the one hand, it was surrounded by the sea, on the other hand, it was separated by mountains and Gobi desert. This complicated geographical environment separated China from other ancient civilizations, and made China's traditional culture and academic thought develop continuously within the original institutional framework.

Without interruption or alienation. Therefore, China's traditional culture and academic thoughts are diverse, independent, complete, mature and rich in content, but also relatively closed and weak in innovation. Broadly speaking, from pre-Qin hundred schools of thought to later generations, most of them came from the witch history culture of Shang Dynasty, and most of them respected natural forces and emphasized the unity of heaven and man.

Let nature take its course and don't violate it; Various theories advocate authority and are easy to reconcile; Advocate ancestors to "pursue the future cautiously"; Attach importance to human relations, rites and music, but ignore natural things; Emphasis on speculative epiphany, not good at logical argument.

In addition, China's traditional culture advocates the unity of knowledge and practice, and has obvious pragmatic tendency. These characteristics of China's traditional culture have been fully reflected in the development of TCM, and China's ancient philosophy has become the soul of TCM theory.
