Reader comments
It contains a very detailed introduction to the symptoms and treatment methods of various injuries, and also includes medical records, which is very practical. Like what is said in the book, "If the injury to the head causes pus, the redness will cause pain, and the pain will stop on its own after the pus comes out." It is so simple and clear that people can understand it at once. It also mentioned many treatment prescriptions, such as Danggui Buxue Decoction, Modified Siwu Decoction, etc., Which I feel are of great reference value. In short, I think this book is worth reading for anyone with trauma needs.
