Clinical effect of Chinese herbal gel patches combined with graphene against lumbar disc protrusion
Objective To study the clinical efficacy of Shujin Zhitong gel patches combined with hot compress patches and Feng's spinal manipulation treatment against lumbar disc protrusion.Methods A total of 120 patients with lower back pain admitted between May 2024 and July 2024 were selected as subjects,who were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method.Both groups(120 cases)received Feng's spinal manipulation treatment,but the control group(60 cases)was additionally given conventional hot compress treatment with the Hantongle paste patch while the treatment group(60 cases)was treated with Shujin Zhitong gel patches combined with graphene hot compress patches.One course of treatment lasted 10 days,and the therapeutic effect was assessed after treatment.A handheld infrared thermometer was used to observe temperature changes before and after treatment.The Visual Analog Scale(VAS)was employed to assess pain changes before and after treatment while the Oswestry Disability Index questionnaire(ODI)was used to evaluate changes of lumbar function.Results After treatment,the temperature difference in infrared thermography decreased in both groups(t=6.616,7.227,both P＜0.001),especially in the treatment group(Fgroup=4.159,Pgroup=0.044).Additionally,VAS scores decreased in both groups(t=8.182,10.056,both P＜0.001),particularly in the treatment group(Fgroup=11.430,Pgmup＜0.001).The total effective rate in the treatment group was higher than that of the control group(x2=4.357,P=0.037).Furthermore,ODI scores decreased in both groups after treatment(t=7.317,9.368,both P＜0.001),especially in the treatment group(Fgroup=12.152,Pgroup＜0.001).The total effective rate in the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group(x2=12.570,P＜0.001).Conclusion For patients with lower back pain,the combined use of Shujin Zhitong gel patches with graphene hot compress patches can effectively relieve pain and improve lumbar function,demonstrating good clinical efficacy.
