Clinical observation on five-step muscle relaxation and bone setting technique combined with Jiexue Cream in treatment of tennis elbow
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of five-step muscle relaxation and bone setting technique combined with Jiexue Cream in treatment of tennis elbow.Methods A total of 96 patients with tennis elbow were randomly divided into treatment group and control group,with 48 cases in each group.Control group was treated with voltarin,and treatment group was treated with five-step muscle relaxation and bone setting technique combined with Jiexue Cream.The efficacy of TCM syn-dromes,Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),pressure and pain sensory threshold(PPT),painless grip strength(PFG),forearm wrist extensor muscle strength,Mayo elbow function(Mayo)and ability of daily living(ADL)scores of the two groups were compared after treatment;the recurrence rate and excellent and good rate of the two groups at one month after treatment were compared.Results After treatment,the total clinical effective rate of treatment group was significantly higher than that of control group(P<0.05);the VAS scores in both groups were lower than those before treatment,and were lower in treatment group than those in control group(P<0.05);the PPT and PFG of both groups were higher than those before treatment,and were higher in treatment group than those in control group(P<0.05);the scores of forearm wrist extensor muscle strength,Mayo,and ADL in both groups were higher than those before treatment,and were higher in treatment group than those in control group(P<0.05).One month after treatment,the recurrence rate of treatment group was significantly lower than that of control group(P<0.05);the excellent rate of treatment group was significantly higher than that of control group(P<0.05).Conclusion five-step muscle relaxation and bone setting technique combined with Jiexue Cream significantly enhances clinical efficacy,reduceds pain,improves pressure pain sensation threshold,grip strength,and muscle strength,improves elbow joint function and living ability,reduces recurrence rate,and increases excellent rate in treatment of tennis elbow.
