那么，中医有没有类似的说法呢？

有，叫“山根横纹”

http://paper.people.com.cn/rmrbhwb/html/2019-09/06/content_1945173.htm

“中医望诊对于早期诊断心脏病有极大优势。中医认为，心与小肠、脉、面、舌等构成了心系统，而不单单只是指心脏的脏器官。可以观察鼻根部位，按面部全息来看，两眼之间的山根部位对应着心脏。因此，如果山根处有横纹，多意味着心脑血管有问题，其病状多显示为有血脂高、动脉硬化、冠心病的潜在可能。”

 

 

 

多余的话：

大千世界、纭纭众生，一个人的经历、学识有限，不可能啥都知道。

但是，在动脑子遐想、信口开河 之前，能不能花点时间查一下，补充一下自己的知识库，免得贻笑大方。
