杨成博

Yang Chengbo is the attributed author of four works recorded in Chinese bibliographic sources. Public information about him is limited, and his dates of birth and death, nationality, and life history are not clearly documented. Judging from the works that survive, his writing focuses on traditional medicine and martial-arts traumatology. His representative titles include The Secret Manual of Acupoints Left by Mr. Yang Chengbo, Secret Manual of Acupoints, and Remedies for Falls and Injuries. These texts deal with identifying acupoints, diagnosing and treating falls and injuries, and prescribing medicines. They show the practical character of folk hand-copied manuals and transmitted teachings, with concise language that emphasizes procedures and recorded experience. Such works are often mentioned in the collation and study of literature on traditional Chinese bone-setting, acupoints, and martial-arts traumatology, and they offer some reference value for understanding the transmission of traditional traumatological knowledge.
