摘要
This paper is a summary of 150 cases of facial paralysis in African black people treated with shallow needling and mild needling manipulation. After 3 courses of treatment, of the 80 cases in the shallow-needling group, 71 (88. 8% ) were cured, 5 (6. 3% ) had marked improvement, 3 (3. 7% ) had improvement and 1 (1. 2% ) failed; Of the 70 cases in traditional-needling group, 61 (87. 1 % ) were cured, 6 (8. 6% ) had evident improvement, 2 (2. 9% ) had improvement and 1 (1. 4 % ) had no striking change. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference between the two groups in the therapeutic effect (P >0. 5 ), indicating both the traditional needling method and shallow needling were effective in treatment of facial paralysis in black people. In addition, earlier treatment was very important in healing facial palsy; and the cure rate was higher in younger patients ard those with light severity.
