Clinical Study of Xiaozhong San Lotion for Promoting Wound Healing after Hemorrhoids Surgery
Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of Xiaozhong San lotion on promoting wound healing after hemorrhoids surgery.Methods A total of 80 patients who underwent mixed hemorrhoidectomy were select-ed.They were randomly divided into the study group(40 cases)and the control group(40 cases)using a random number table method.The control group received routine nursing and symptomatic support treatment after surger-y,while the study group received external washing with Xiaozhong San lotion on the basis of the control group.Both groups were treated for one week.The visual analog scale(VAS)scores of wound pain on the 3rd and 5th postoperative days in the two groups were compared.The expression levels of vascular endothelial growth fac-tor(VEGF)in wound proliferative granulation tissue on the 3rd postoperative day were compared.The first postop-erative defecating time and hospitalization days were compared as well.Results The VAS scores of the study group on the 3rd and 5th postoperative days were lower than those of the control group(P all<0.05).The expres-sion level of VEGF in the granulation tissue of wound proliferation in the study group on the 3rd day after surgery was higher than that in the control group(P<0.01).The first postoperative defecating time and hospitalization days in the study group were shorter than those in the control group(P all<0.05).Conclusion Xiaozhong San lo-tion could alleviate postoperative pain in hemorrhoidectomy,increase the expression level of VEGF in granulation tissue of the wound,and shorten the first defecating time and hospitalization days after surgery,which effectively promote wound healing.
