Objective:To observe the influence of herbal fumigation combined with acupoint massage on lactation volume in patients with postpartum milk secretion deficiency.Methods:A total of 88 patients suffering postpartum milk secretion deficiency were chosen after the surgery of caesarean section(CS),and randomized into the control group and the observation group,44 cases in each group.Both groups accepted conventional health education and breastfeeding guidance,the observation group was given herbal fumigation and acupoint massage,and both groups were intervened for seven days consecutively.To compare lactation volume,the levels of serum prolactin(PRL),syndrome scores and clinical effects between both groups.Results:Total effective rate of the observation group was 97.73%(43/44),higher than 81.82%(36/44)of the control group(P<0.05).The lactation volume increased in both groups(P<0.05),the levels of serum PRL rose(P<0.05),and the difference was significant between the(P<0.05);after the treatment,syndrome scores of both groups reduced(P<0.05),and the observa-tion group was lower than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:On the foundation of routine intervention,herbal fumigation joined with acupoint massage could increase lactation volume and raise the levels of serum PRL in patients with milk secretion deficiency after caesarean section,and relieve clinical symptoms.
