Traditional Chinese medicine originated from life practice, and its theoretical system has been deepened and enriched in practice. It has experienced four academic active periods: the first academic active period, represented by Huangdi Neijing, laid the foundation of TCM theory; In the second academic active period, represented by Zhang Zhongjing's Treatise on Febrile Diseases, a TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment system was established. In the third academic active period, the "four masters of Jin and Yuan Dynasties" represented the academic active period of Jin and Yuan Dynasties; The fourth academic active period. The rise of febrile diseases, represented by Ye's theory of "defending qi and nourishing blood based on syndrome differentiation", reached the heyday of academic activities in the early Qing Dynasty. Holism, constancy and syndrome differentiation and treatment are the three most basic characteristics that run through the whole theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine. The characteristics of TCM cognitive and thinking methods are: thinking from the outside, keeping the whole movement, comparing things with things, and getting rid of the shackles of appearances.
