What does it mean to treat the disease before it is treated?

Prevention of disease is the essence theory of traditional Chinese medicine. The original text is from Huangdi Neijing. The moral is to nip in the bud, don't wait until you are terminally ill to seek medical advice everywhere. Modern quotations also imply that we should be prepared to do things.

"The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" Su Wen's "Four Qi Tunes the Spirit" said: "The sage can't be cured if he doesn't treat it, and if he doesn't treat it, he can't be cured. This is also called. Husband's illness became medicine, and chaos became a cure. It is not too late to cross a well and fight for a cone. "

Therefore, the sage does not wait for the disease to happen, but treats it before it happens, just as he does not wait for the disorder to happen, but treats it before it happens. If the disease has occurred, it must be treated, and the disorder has already formed, it must be treated. It's like digging a well in the face of thirst, and it's too late to make weapons after the war.
