Clinical Study on the Combined Treatment of Buccal Needle and Balance Needle for Lumbar Disc Herniation
Objective:To analyze the effect of combined buccal needle and balance needle in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation(LDH).Methods:68 LDH patients were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 34 cases in each group.Compare the clinical efficacy,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome score,Japanese orthopedic association(JOA)lumbar assessment treatment score,Oswestry dysfunction index(ODI)score and incidence of adverse reactions between two groups of patients.Results:There was no significant difference in overall effica-cy between the two groups of patients(P>0.05).Compared with the control group after treatment,the observation group had lower TCM syndrome scores,ODI scores,and higher JOA scores in all dimensions(P<0.05).There was no differ-ence in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:The combination of buccal nee-dle and balance needle can improve lumbar spine function in LDH patients with high safety.
