Medicine of Ethnic Minority Groups

Chinese medicine consists of not only medicine of Han people, but also medicine of other ethnic groups. The ethnic minority groups, lived under different geographical locations and cultures, form the medicines with their own characteristics. These ethnic minority groups include Tibetan, Mongol, Uygur, Korean, Zhuang, Dai, Yi, Miao, Lahu, Oroqen, etc.

The current status of these medicines are different because of their different histories and cultures. For some ethnic groups, they not only have lots of treating methods in medicine, but also form theories. Others retain a few books scattering among the people. These books need to be sorted out. And there are still some ethnic groups who transmit their medicine orally.

For some ethnic minority groups, they adopt the medicine of Han and medicine from other countries when forming their own medicine. For instance, Tibetan medicine adopts contents of Han medicine and ancient India medicine. Mongolian medicine takes in contents of medicine in Han, Tibetan and Russia, etc.
