Results The total scores of general symptoms after four months and seven months of treatment were 15.30±5.66 and 19.08±4.57 respectively, which were much higher than the score of 7.42±2.20 before the treatment (both P〈0.01 ), in addition, the score after seven months of treatment was higher than that after four months of treatment. The variation of scores in patients with different types after treatment was statistically significant (P〈0.05), and the best effect can he seen in the blood stagnation type of patients with herniation of hnnbar intervertebral disc, then less the patients with liver and kidney deficiency type. Conclusion Electroacupuneture plus waist-strengthening exercises has a satisfactory therapeutic effect on herniation of lumbar intervertebral diste, the longer course of treatment is, the beffer therapeutic effect achieved.展开更多
