Pulse diagnosis in traditional Chinese medicine is very difficult. No matter how difficult it is, if you ask any traditional Chinese medicine student, they will tell you that pulse diagnosis is the most profound of all the physical examination methods in traditional Chinese medicine.
Where is the profundity?
If you read ancient Chinese medical books, you will find that the various descriptions of pulse diagnosis can only be understood but not quantified, unlike Western medicine which has specific numerical indicators.
This results in each Chinese medicine doctor coming to different medical conclusions after feeling the patient's pulse.
If you have to ask a Chinese doctor which pulse is the easiest to feel, it may be something that an outsider might not think of. It is not the floating pulse of qi deficiency, the stringy pulse of liver depression, etc. that people often talk about - it is the pulse of pregnancy.
Such cases have occurred more than once in Lin**.
A female patient came to a Chinese medicine hospital to seek a prescription for nourishing her body. The Chinese doctor felt the pulse of the female patient and diagnosed that she was very likely to have an ectopic pregnancy. The patient was then given a B-ultrasound and other examinations to confirm that the Chinese medicine diagnosis was correct.
At this time, whether it is the patient or the Western medicine doctor, they can only use an exclamation mark to express: Chinese medicine is so magical.
The typical pregnancy pulse is special and relatively easy to feel, and can be said to be the entry way for many students in Chinese medicine schools to learn about pulse diagnosis.

Through pregnancy pulse, Chinese medicine students can know: Oh, this is called slippery pulse.
These situations are enough to illustrate how difficult it is for people to feel the patient's pulse and detect many different pulse conditions by relying on the touch of their fingers.
Therefore, in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, there is an unwritten rule of evaluation: whether a traditional Chinese medicine doctor is a real master can be judged by the level of his/her pulse diagnosis skills.
The Western medicine doctors at the scene had heard such rumors about Chinese medicine. They all looked at the only Chinese doctor, Dr. Wen Zihan, who was taking the patient's pulse. They were probably waiting to see whether Dr. Wen Zihan had the ability as rumored, or whether Wu Lixuan's patients were just bragging for her. They would probably draw a conclusion after her pulse diagnosis results came out.
After waiting for a while, the patient's condition was so urgent that the doctor couldn't wait to diagnose and treat him, so it was estimated to take one or two minutes.
If it is a Western doctor, by feeling the patient's pulse during this period of time, he can at least count the patient's pulse beats per minute.
If the patient is a cardiologist, he can preliminarily feel the patient's pulse to see if there are any arrhythmias such as premature beats.
In summary, based on anatomy, Western medicine has determined that the pulse is the pulsation reaction of an artery of the patient. Although it is connected to the patient's circulatory system, the pattern of its beating should only be closely related to the function of the heart as a blood pump.
Therefore, Western medicine doctors never really believe in Chinese medicine's pulse diagnosis.
Wen Zihan took his pulse-checking hand away from the patient's wrist, looked up and said to his colleagues, "Maybe the cause of the disease is not a cerebrovascular problem."
"What's the problem?"
A group of Western medicine doctors showed serious doubts on their faces.
You have to know that this preliminary diagnosis came from several doctors at the scene. Many of these doctors are big shots, which means she would slap the big shots in the face if she said no. "I just felt his pulse and it was stringy. We need to rule out whether he is in hepatic coma." Wen Zihan said.
What!
There were hepatobiliary surgeons and gastroenterologists on site.
"Hey, he's in hepatic coma, can't you see that?" Shin Youhuan immediately turned around and yelled at several junior fellow students in the technical school.
"The family did not say he had a history of liver disease." Jiang Mingzhu responded first.
