Features: This book integrates the basic theories, diagnostic experiences, and clinical pain treatment techniques of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), Western medicine, and integrated Chinese and Western medicine. It combines the knowledge of Chinese and Western medicine, achieving comprehensive unification and thorough integration. It organically combines the macroscopic understanding of TCM regarding the physiological and pathological mechanisms of neck, shoulder, and back pain with the modern microscopic theories of the spine from pathology. By utilizing modern scientific detection methods and diagnostic approaches from both Chinese and Western medicine, it leverages the strengths of Western medicine in disease characterization and localization diagnosis while emphasizing the overall response and dynamic changes of the body during disease progression for multi-dimensional diagnosis. At the same time, it conducts a comprehensive analysis of the disease based on TCM theory and methods, incorporating modern research findings on the micro-level indicators of "syndromes" to make corresponding new differential diagnoses. This allows for the better utilization of the advantages of TCM's syndrome differentiation on the basis of disease identification, thereby improving clinical efficacy.
