Clinical effect of fire needle combined with wrapping application of Huanglian ointment in treating chronic eczema of-blood-deficiency and wind-dryness syndrome
Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of fire needle combined with wrapping application of Huanglian ointment in the treatment of chronic eczemaof blood-deficiency and wind-dryness syndrome.Methods One hundred patients with chronic eczema of blood-deficiency and wind-dryland syndrome were randomly assigned in a 1∶1 ratio to either local fire needle therapy(control group)or Huanglian ointment plus local fire needletherapy(treatment group)for 4 weeks.The Eczema Area and Severity Index(EASI)score,pruritus degree and frequency scores were included as comparators between the two groups before and after treatment,and the efficacy and recurrence rate of the two groups were statistically analyzed.Results The total effective rate of the treatment group was better than that of the control group(96.00%[48/50]vs 82.00%[41/50],P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of EASI,pruritus degree and frequency in the both groups were obviously decreased(all P<0.05),the decrease were more pronounced in the treatment group relative to the control group(P<0.05).The recurrence rate in the treatment group was obviously lower than that of the control group after 1-month follow-up(P<0.05).Conclusion Fire needle combined with wrapping application of Huanglian ointment is effective in the treatment of chronic eczema of blood-deficiency and wind-dryness syndrome,which can reduce the itching symptoms,and reduce the recurrence rate.It is worthy of popularization and application.
