Learning Chinese medicine requires certain basic knowledge and skills, so the entry needs to start from the following aspects:

1. Learn the basic theoretical knowledge of TCM: The first step in learning TCM is to master the basic concepts, theories and knowledge of TCM. It is suggested to start with the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine such as Huangdi Neijing and Treatise on Febrile Diseases to understand the basic theoretical framework, cognitive methods and treatment ideas of traditional Chinese medicine.

2. Learn Chinese medicine: Chinese medicine is the basis of Chinese medicine treatment. Learning Chinese medicine needs to master the basic concepts, classification, efficacy and usage of Chinese medicine. You can learn the basic knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, such as medicinal properties, meridian tropism, medicinal parts, dosage and so on.

3. Learn TCM diagnosis: TCM diagnosis is the key to TCM treatment, and it is necessary to learn TCM syndrome differentiation theory and diagnosis methods, such as the four diagnosis methods of looking, smelling, asking and cutting, the eight-outline syndrome differentiation method, and the five zang-organs syndrome differentiation method.

In the process of TCM self-study, it is suggested to find authoritative TCM learning materials and teaching materials, read TCM classics, participate in TCM learning exchange activities, and seek the guidance of famous and old TCM practitioners. At the same time, we need to pay attention to practice and accumulate more clinical experience.
