Methods One hundred and twenty cases with postoperative pain of mixed hemorrhoids were divided into an electroacupuncture group (60 cases) and a medication group (60 cases) randomly. In electroacupuncture group disperse-dense wave in frequency of 2 Hz/100 Hz was adopted at Chengshan (承山 BL 57), the first treatment was given within 30 min after the operation, from the second day on electroacupuncture treatment was applied once a day and each time after hip bath in the morning. While in medication group 2 tablets of Naproxen Sunstained Release Capsule were administered orally within 30 min after operation, later on 2 tablets were taken before dressing change in the day. After 4 times of treatment, evaluate the changed condition of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at 5 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 b after operation. Results In electroacupuncture group all tested pain scores at 5 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after operation (6.78±2.12, 5.56±1.87, 4.34±2.23 and 3.15±2.11) were lower than those in the medication group (7.56±2.01, 6.23±1.15, 5.57±2.21 and 4.34±2.12), and the difference was statistically significant (all P〈0.05).
