Acupuncture has shown good therapeutic effects in treating PHN, but the mechanism of action remains unclear. This article organizes and summarizes the articles on acupuncture treatment of PHN in recent years to provide more effective treatment ideas for clinical practice. By reviewing the literature on acupuncture treatment of PHN in recent years, it has been found that patient age, underlying diseases, pain intensity during the acute phase, severity of skin lesions, smoking history, and psychological factors are all risk factors for the development of PHN.展开更多
