Seems like Western treatments are for faster relief while Chinese treatments even though slow, seem to have less repercussions/aftereffects.

Depends. I believe in both but Chinese meds are better for chronically deceases when Western meds are more instant.

depends on the problem, sometimes quick fix from western medicine is more effective

i think it depends on the situation, but i try to stay away from western medicines

Prefer Chinese treatment than Western because of the side effect

Chinese for sprains and pains. Western for others

Western Don’t know what goes into Chinese meds

if it is effective, I always try to consider it

depends on what you are treating. I take both

TCM and Western both is effective in its way
