ZHUANG Lixing's Experience in Treating Postoperative Pain of PMTs by Using Acupuncture and Herbal Medication
This study summarized Professor ZHUANG Lixing's clinical experience in treating phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors(PMTs)by using acupuncture and herbal medication.Professor ZHUANG believes that the pathogenesis of this condition involves Yang deficiency of Spleen and Kidney,and obstruction of cold and dampness in collaterals.In his treatment,Lingnan fire needling therapy focuses on warming Yang,dispelling cold,regulating Shen and alleviating pain.Acupoints such as Ashi points,Shenmen(HT7),Neiguan(PC6),Sanyinjiao(SP6),Zusanli(ST36),Shenmai(BL62),Zhaohai(KI6),Zhangmen(LR13)and Jingmen(GB25)are frequently shallowly needled,while Du meridian and Bladder meridian are dispersedly needled along their courses.Internal herbal medication mainly uses Fuzi Decoction to warm Yang and eliminate dampness.The combination of acupuncture and herbal medication,addressing both the root cause and the symptoms,yields significant therapeutic effects.
