It originated in the Han and Tang Dynasties. There are records of ointments in " Huangdi Neijing ". The ointment formula gradually developed during the Tang and Song dynasties, and the ointment formula became more perfect and mature during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Since the founding of New China, the development and application of paste prescriptions have been further developed, and their clinical use has become increasingly widespread. For example, the decoctions collected in the National Collection of Chinese Patent Medicines Products in 1988 include 52 prescriptions in the internal, external, gynecological, children, and quasi-features.

Zhao Bin introduced, "In previous years, there were many elderly people, and this year there were more young faces, many of them had symptoms of neurasthenia, dizziness, and insomnia. This is because modern young people play with mobile phones and computers more, which has a lot to do with excessive brain use. Qi deficiency and blood deficiency lead to inability to nourish the mind. Ointment prescriptions are particularly effective in treating these deficiency syndromes."

Zhao Bin said that the nourishment of the ointment should vary from person to person. For example, some people have yin deficiency and fire . Improper nourishment will aggravate the in the body and cause physical discomfort. Because everyone has different physical constitutions, the ingredients of the ointment prescriptions required are also different. The ointment prescriptions provided by large traditional Chinese medicine hospitals are "one person, one prescription", and it is impossible to "one thousand people".

Chemical prescriptions, use high-quality medicinal materials, and use modern advanced technical means to boil them into conditioning paste recipes. In addition to the scientific and reasonable prescriptions, good paste recipes are also very important. There are strict processes and specifications for making paste recipes. From dispensing, proofreading, feeding, soaking, decoding, filtering, concentrating, and receiving paste to the final packaging, it takes at least 3 to 4 working days to complete. Among them, the most important and most difficult step is to collect paste, which must reach the state of "dripping water into beads" and "hanging flags", and can only be completed by professional paste pharmacists.

In the interview, the reporter learned that Although the ointment prescription is suitable for winter use, and the effect is better, it is not limited to the winter season.
