What can modern medicine achieve?
If it is difficult to pick mangoes from a mango tree, most children learn to pick them up at an early age by climbing on a friend's shoulder. Something similar has happened in the medical field. Today’s doctors have made tremendous progress by climbing on the shoulders of previous doctors.

In ancient times people like Hippocrates, Pasteur, Vesalius and William Morton were very well known as doctors in providing medical treatment. However, many people today are not familiar with those names. But what did these individuals contribute to the field of medicine today?
In ancient times, philanthropic healing was practiced, not scientifically, but on the basis of superstitions and rituals. Medical author, Dr. In his book The Epic of Medicine, Felix Marti-Izabenez states: “To fight against any disease. . . The people of Mesopotamia used a 'combination of medicine and religion'. Because they believed that diseases were a punishment from God. ” Similarly, in Egypt, rituals were performed with the use of medicine to cure pain. Thus, from the very beginning, healers were given religious status.

In his book The Clay Pedestal, Dr. Thomas A. Preston states: “The influence of ancient beliefs on the healing process is still felt today. One of them was the belief that the disease was out of the patient's control and that only a doctor's magic could cure it. "
Beginning of medical education:-
Over time, more scientific methods have been adopted in the medical field to heal people. Hippocrates was the first physician to treat scientifically in ancient times. He was born on the Greek island of Kos in about 60 BCE and is considered by many to be the father of Western medicine. Hippocrates started the modern medical field by showing sensitivity towards treatment. He did not believe that sickness was a punishment from God and argued that it came naturally. Epilepsy, for example, has long been considered a sacred disease, as it was believed at the time that only the gods could cure it. But Hippocrates wrote: "Concerning the so-called sacred disease: I do not believe it is from God, it is also a natural disease." Hippocrates was the first known physician to diagnose the symptoms of various diseases and he also kept a record of that information for future reference.
Centuries later, a Greek physician named Galen was born in 12 CE He made a similar scientific discovery. By studying dissection of humans and animals, Gail wrote a book on anatomy that has been used by doctors for centuries! Born in Brussels in 1918, Andreas Veselિયus wrote a book on the structure of the human body. His book was strongly opposed as it challenged many of Gail's conclusions. But it became the basic textbook of modern anatomy. According to Dia Grossen's book, Vesalius became "one of the most important medical researchers of all time."
Galen's assumptions about heart and blood circulation were further disproved. * The English physician William Harvey spent years researching the mutilation of animals and birds. He checked every function of the heart valves and estimated the amount of blood in the body by checking the amount of blood in each of the ventricles of the heart. Harvey published a book about his research on the movement of the heart and blood in animals in the 19th century. As a result, he suffered criticism, opposition, assaults, and insults. But what he discovered was very important in the field of medicine, as the body's transport system was first discovered!
Shaving surgery:-
The art of surgery was also filled with deer. During the Middle Ages, surgery was the job of the barber. Many say that the father of modern surgery was Ambroy Perry of France in the 19th century, and this is not surprising. He was the first barber surgeon to perform the surgery that served the four kings of France. Perry also redesigned some surgical instruments.
That 19th century creation was still a big problem. He could not alleviate the pain caused by the surgery. But in the 19th century, a dental surgeon named William Morton paved the way for the widespread use of ether (anesthetics) in surgery.
In the year 19, while experimenting on electricity, the German physicist Wilhelm R્ntz noticed that some rays passed through his body but did not pass through his bones. He did not know where the rays originated, so he named them X-rays, a name that has survived in English-speaking countries. (The Germans know her as Roentgenstralen.) According to the book Dia Groben DeGrossen (Great Germans), Roentgen told his wife: "People will say: 'Roentgen has gone mad.'" But this same discovery led to a radical change in surgery. Now, surgeons can look inside the body without cutting.
Victory over disease:-
Over the centuries, infectious diseases, such as smallpox, have often spread, causing fear, and even death. Nineteenth-century Iran was described by some as the greatest physician of the Islamic world at the time, who gave an accurate medical description of smallpox. But centuries later, Edward Jenner, a British physician, discovered a cure for smallpox. Jenner noted that once a person develops a non-harmful disease, he may be at risk of contracting smallpox. Based on this study, Jenner developed a vaccine to fight smallpox in humans from a cow's smallpox sore. Discovered in 19 Like other innovators, Jenner's discovery was criticized and opposed. But his discovery eradicated smallpox and found a powerful new tool to fight the disease.
Louis Pasteur of France used the vaccine to fight rabies and anthrax. He also proved that germs play an important role in spreading diseases. In 18 CE, Robert Coke identified the tuberculosis bacterium, which historians described as "the deadliest disease of the nineteenth century." About a year later, Coke also identified the cholera bacterium. Says Life Magazine: “Our knowledge of Pasteur and Coke microbiology has increased and there has been a great improvement in immunology, public hygiene and health care. Because of this, the advances in science over the last 1000 years have increased the life expectancy of human beings more than the efforts of these two individuals.
care in the twentieth century:-
In the early twentieth century, the pharmaceutical field found itself standing on the shoulders of such doctors and other highly intelligent people involved in treatment. Since then, there have been rapid advances in medicine, such as insulin for diabetes, chemotherapy for cancer, hormonal treatment for glandular disorders, antibiotics for tuberculosis, chloroquine for certain types of malaria, and chlorhexidine for kidney disease. And organ implants.
But now that we are at the beginning of the 21st century, how far has the pharmaceutical field reached in the pursuit of "acceptable health for all peoples of the world"?
An unattainable goal:-
Children who pick mangoes on their friends' shoulders soon realize that not all mangoes will come in handy. Some juicy mangoes are so overcrowded that they cannot be reached. In the same way, many such achievements have been made in the field of medicine. But the important goal of good health for all has not yet been reached.
In the year 19, the European Commission reported that "Europeans have never enjoyed such a long and healthy life." The report adds: “One in five people will die before reaching the age of five. Of these, 80% will die from cancer and 40% from heart disease. . . There must be better protection against new health threats. "
Gasuntheit, a German health magazine, reported on November 19 that the threat of diseases such as cholera and tuberculosis is on the rise. Why? Antibiotics are no longer effective. More and more germs are exposed to at least one common drug; Indeed, many germs have been exposed to more than one drug. ” Older diseases have not yet been resisted, and new ones, such as AIDS, have sprung up. The German pharmaceutical publication Statistics 3 reminds us: “Two-thirds of all the diseases that have been reported so far, that is, 60,000 diseases, have no cure.”
Is genetic medicine the cure?:-
Admittedly, new treatments are evolving. For example, many believe that genetic engineering can improve genetic modification. Dr. W. After doctors such as French Anderson researched it in the United States in the 1960's, he described gin therapy as "the most exciting and popular in medical research." The book Helen Mitt Jenen (Healing from Genes) states that “medical science is on the verge of success in the developmental stage through gin therapy. It is true for treating diseases for which there is no cure. ”
Scientists expect that they will soon be able to eliminate genetic diseases from birth by inserting new genes into a patient's body. Even harmful cells, such as cancer cells, can destroy themselves. Sick people have their genes checked to see what diseases they are more likely to get. Some say that the next step would be to give a drug that suits the patient's genes. One major researcher suggests that one day doctors will be able to diagnose their "patients' illness and use DNA strands to heal them."
However, not everyone is convinced that gene therapy will prove to be the “cure” for future healing. Indeed, according to surveys, people do not even want their genes checked. Many fear that gene therapy is dangerous because it is against the laws of nature.
Only time will tell whether they will be able to keep their promise by adopting genetic engineering or other advanced technology in the field of medicine. However, there is a reason not to be overly optimistic. The book The Clay Pedestal describes a very familiar phenomenon: “When a new medicine comes out, it is loudly proclaimed in medical meetings and in professional journals. Its discoverer is well-known in the field of medicine and is praised by magazines. Shortly after the evidence is presented in support of the advancement and the new treatment, false illusions for the therapy begin that last from a few months to a few decades. Then comes a new method of treatment that replaces the old medicine overnight and it becomes useless after the old medicine. ” Indeed, the same treatment that doctors have abandoned as ineffective was the only effective treatment a few years ago.
Although today's physicians do not agree with the religious status accorded to healers in ancient times, there is a tendency among some to regard medical practitioners as gods. They believe that scientific research can cure diseases of all mankind. However, the reality is quite different. In the book How and Why We Grow Old (English), Dr. Leonardo Heflik states: “In 1900, 4% of the population in the United States died before reaching the age of eight. Today the figure is quite the opposite: about 90 percent of people die after the age of eight. ” What is the reason for this significant increase in life expectancy? Heflick explains that "the infant mortality rate has dropped dramatically." Now suppose that medical science finds the causes of diseases such as heart disease, cancer and stroke, responsible for the deaths of the elderly, will they become immortal? Never Dr. Heflik notes that this would mean that “most people will live to be 100 years old.” He adds: “But these 100-year-olds cannot be immortal. Why would they die? They will continue to become weaker and weaker until they die. ”
Despite the best efforts of medical science, the cause of death is still not known from the field of medicine. Why is that And will the goal of good health for all be just a dream?
