Abstract:This study summarizes the experience and characteristics of diagnosis and treatment of tendon injuries by famous orthopedic expert Liu Shoushan. Liu Shoushan points out that tendon injuries have the characteristic of difficult treatment. Clinically they should be diagnosed early, treated correctly and emphasized the importance of recovery. He establishes four principles which are massage manipulation, the composition of Chinese medicine prescriptions, fixation and functional exercises for the treatment of tendon injuries by focusing on the physiological characteristics of the tendon of traditional Chinese medicine. His six core academic thoughts: accurate, soft and slow are better than blind and vigorous on massage manipulations; correcting the wrong anatomical position of tendon is beneficial to restore its physiological function; pay attention to the whole treatment, use the composition of Chinese medicine prescriptions correctly during different stages to adjust the balance of qi and blood; treatments of tendon injuries should be warm instead of cold; new serious tendon injuries should be fixed with paper binding; pay attention to the exercise on the recovery of tendon injuries. Through combing and refining the above-mentioned academic thoughts, this article hopes to provide some reference for the diagnosis and treatment of tendon injuries in Chinese medicine.
