Methods: Sixty eligible AR kids were randomized into a tuina group and a Western medication group by their visiting sequence, 30 cases in each group. The tuina group was intervened by Liu's infantile tuina therapy, once daily, 5 times as a treatment course, with a 2-day interval after a course; the control group was by orally taking Loratadine. The therapeutic efficacies were compared and analyzed after treatment for 4 successive weeks. Results: After treatment, the symptoms such as itchy nose, sneezing, runny nose, and stuffy nose were significantly improved in both groups (P〈0.05), and the improvements in the tuina group were more remarkable than those in the Western medication group (P〈0.05). The total effective rate was 90.0% in the tuina group versus 73.3% in the Western medication group, and the difference was statistically significant (P〈0.05). Conclusion: Liu's infantile tuina therapy can produce a better therapeutic efficacy in treating AR kids compared to oral administration of Loratadine.展开更多
