Methods: A total of 93 cases were randomly allocated into an observation group(n=47) and a control group(n=46) according to the table of random number. Cases in the observation group received tuina combining with Chinese herbal fumigation, whereas cases in the control group received oral blood-circulating and pain-alleviating capsules combining with Chinese herbal fumigation. Both tuina and Chinese herbal fumigation were done once every other day and 10 times made up a course of treatment. The Baird-Jackson ankle scoring system and clinical efficacy were observed after 1 course of treatment.Results: After treatment, except for radiographic findings, there were significant intra-group differences in individual item scores of Baird-Jackson(P〈0.05, P〈0.01); except for ankle joint range of motion(ROM), there were significant betweengroup differences in individual item scores and total score(P〈0.01). The excellence and good rate was 76.6% in the observation group, versus 54.4% in the control group, showing a statistical significance(P〈0.05). Conclusion: Combining Chinese herbal fumigation and tuina based on the muscle region theory can obtain better effect than combining oral blood-circulating and pain-alleviating capsules and Chinese herbal fumigation for chronic ankle sprain.展开更多
