悬壶问世

行医赈济众东谈主。“悬壶”即把装药的葫芦挂起来，动作行医卖药的牌号，泛指从事医疗工作；“济世”是对困苦之东谈主提供赈济。这一不雅念，使行医卖药超过了一般工作与营生期间而被赋予了东谈主文关注的真谛。它既是众东谈主关于医者救死扶伤、治病救东谈主行为的一种赞赏，亦然医者用以自励的谈德准则和价值判断。

Hanging a Gourd (Practicing Medicine) to Help the World

This term means to help people by practicing medicine. "Hanging a gourd" refers to the tradition of using gourd containing medications as a sign for those practicing and selling medicines; it is used more broadly to refer to those in the medical profession. "Helping the world" means providing aid and relief to those in distress. This concept elevates the practice of medicine above ordinary occupations and livelihoods, and imbues it with humanistic caring. It praises the deeds of physicians who care for the sick and dying, and is also a moral standard and value by which they should measure themselves.
