Therapeutic efficacy of thread-drawing therapy combined with Jinhuang ointment on low generalized perianal abscesses
Objective It is to observe the clinical efficacy of thread-drawing therapy combined with Jinhuang ointment in the treatment of low generalized perianal abscess.Methods Eighty-six patients with low generalized perianal abscess treated in the Anorectum Department of Longhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Chinese Medicine from De-cember 2022 to October 2023 were randomly divided into treatment group and control group,with 43 patients in each group.The treatment group was treated with thread-drawing therapy combined with Jinhuang ointment,and the control group was treated with thread-drawing therapy alone.The clinical efficacy,wound healing time,residual swelling disappea-ring time,score of wound granulation morphology,score of wound exudate,pain VAS score,Wexner fecal incontinence score and adverse reactions of the patients in the two groups were compared at 1 month after surgery.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the clinical efficacy between the two groups(P>0.05);the wound healing time and residual swelling disappearing time of the treatment group were significantly shorter than those of the control group(both P<0.05);the percentage of patients with scores of 1 and 2 for granulation morphology and wound exudate of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group on the 7th and 10th postoperative days(P<0.05);the VAS scores of wound pain on the 7th,10th,and 14th postoperative days of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group during the same period(all P<0.05);there were no significant differences in the fistula rate and recurrent fistula rate between the two groups in 3 moths after recovery(both P>0.05);there was no significant differ-ence in the Wexner fecal incontinence score before and after the treatment between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Thread-drawing therapy combined with Jinhuang ointment has the advantages of promoting wound healing,accelerating the regression of residual swelling,and protecting anal function in the treatment of generalized perianal abscess.
