Animal experiments showed that when used externally, "She-Bie" Ointment had striking anti-inflammation and pain-relief actions but had no irritant and no allergic effects to the skin. In the treatment of mild type of LIDP, "She-Bie" Ointment partition moxibustion could work well in improving clinical symptoms; and in the treatment of moderate type of LIDP, it could be used as a supplementary measure and raise the excellent and good rates of the therapeutic effect further. For this reason, "She-Bie" Ointment partition moxibustion deserves being popularized in clinical treatment of LIDP.展开更多

Methods： Sixty patients with lumbar strain were randomized at ratio of 1：1 into two groups. The 30 cases in the observation group were given auricular point sticking plus externally applied medicinal plaster; the other 30 cases in a control group were only treated by the plaster. The Short-form of McGill Pain Questionnaire （SFMPQ） was adopted before treatment, after 3-day treatment, and at the end of 2-week treatment, for scoring and evaluation. Results： After 3-day treatment, the observation group gained significant improvement in Pain Rating Index （PRI）, Visual Analogue Scale （VAS）, and Present Pain Intensity （PPI） （P〈0.05）, while the improvements of PRI, VAS, and PPI in the control group were insignificant. After 2-week treatment, both groups gained significant progress in PRI, VAS, AND PPI compared with pre-treatment （P〈0.01）, and the inter-group comparison of PRI showed marked difference （P〈0.05）, but the differences in comparing VAS and PPI between the two groups were insignificant. There were merely any side effects happening in the two groups, except that some patients felt itchy, and the inter-group comparison did not show statistical significance. Conclusion： Auricular point sticking plus externally applied medicinal plaster has better effect than single plaster in treating lumbar strain induced pain, and it＇s safe and credible.展开更多
