Methods: Seventy patients were randomly divided into two groups, with 35 cases in each group. The treatment group was treated with Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture and cupping therapy. The control group was treated with Diclofenac Sodium Tablets, Corydalis Analgesic Tablets and Vitamin C Tablets. Results: The total effective rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P〈0.05). Conclusion: The combined therapy with acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine has a remarkable therapeutic effect on treating traumatic gonarthromeningitis.展开更多
