Tianrong point is located at the superior cervical ganglion of the sympathetic trunck. When needling the point the needle punctures directly on the sympathetic trunck inducing endings of postganglionic fibers to release adrenaline, which exertes regulatory effect on sensory cells in the semilunar ganglion of trigeminal nerves and vessels of the face, so as to attain analgesic effect.展开更多

Methods： Twenty-eight cases of primary trigeminal neuralgia were treated by point penetrating injection plus ear pressing, controlled by 28 cases treated only by acupuncture, Results： The total effective rate was 96,43% in observation group and 78.57% in control group. There wasa significant difference in the total effective rate between the two groups （P〈0.05）. Results： Point penetrating injection plus ear pressing is the effective method in treating primary trigeminal neuralgia.展开更多

Methods： Sixty patients were randomly allocated to two groups. The treatment group received acupuncture plus electrophoresis, and the control group took Carbamazepine and Methylcobalamin. The therapeutic effects would be evaluated after 30 d. Results： The total effective rate was 93.3% in the treatment group versus 70.0% in the control group. During the follow-up study （6 months to 1 year）, 3 cases got relapsed in the treatment group, occupying 11.1%, and 6 got relapsed in the control group, occupying 28.6%. Conclusion： Combined acupuncture and electrophoresis has a precise effect in treating trigeminal neuralgia, and it bears an advantage of simple operation and maintaining cutaneous sensation.展开更多
