Abstract

Handwritten prescriptions are based on the thorough understanding of diseases and accurate diagnosis of patients by ancient Chinese physicians. This article discusses the particularities of TCM handwritten prescriptions in different historical periods in China, which are crucial to the study of contemporary medicine and calligraphy and the treatment of TCM diseases with their unique writing styles. We aim at study and summarize the evolution of ancient Chinese manuscripts from a historical perspective. As the only way to record the experience of disease diagnosis and treatment, in-depth research on handwritten prescriptions can open up new fields of scientific research in traditional Chinese medicine, promote the wide application and dissemination of ancient Chinese calligraphy works around the world, and provide more opportunities for future generations of medical references. This paper mainly adopts the survey method, literature review method, data analysis method, comparative analysis method and inductive summary method to conduct research, and strive to make the research convincing. Traditional Chinese medicine formulas are the empirical data of generations of doctors in meticulous diagnosis, investigation, prescription, dialectical treatment, and are a precious medical case. TCM has a long history in China, and it is an important foundation for TCM to treat diseases because of its good medicinal calligraphy styles. In-depth research has the potential to open up new areas of scientific research in Chinese medicine and encourage the widespread adaptation and dissemination of ancient Chinese calligraphy works worldwide. Its widespread use increases the number of references available for future medicine.
