From the point of view of western medicine, even if there are so many instruments available for examination now, it is very laborious for a responsible and good doctor to give you a nearly perfect treatment plan. Many intractable diseases need expert consultation, and several or even a dozen experts will be used to make treatment plans for you. It is true that treating diseases is like fighting.
Every patient's illness is like a math problem. Many doctors in China are actually very good at solving some math problems, which is related to his teacher's life, personal preferences, local epidemic diseases and doctors' understanding of drugs and diseases. For example, some are good at treating solid diseases, some are good at treating deficiency, some are good at treating dampness, and some are proficient in gynecology and pediatrics.
Among the math problems he is good at, his problem-solving rate can be as high as 70%, and in the problems he is not good at, the problem-solving rate is low. If the doctor's own illness is a type of problem-solving that he is not good at, he can only find other good doctors or be helpless.
Even in the field he is good at, the effect will be worse than usual, because his mentality of seeing a doctor is no longer calm and objective.
Summary:
The doctor's own diseases are often in the types of diseases that he is not good at, because diseases, especially fatal diseases, are often the accumulation of psychological and physical problems that people can't solve in their lives.
It began to break out years later, precisely because they usually avoid or suppress such psychological and physical problems that they are not good at dealing with, and they can't deal with them when the problems get bigger. You know, doctors also have many weaknesses, and it is the hardest to know yourself. "I was born in this mountain."
