ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of yang-warming acupuncture therapy established by Zuo Changbo for the treatment of allergic rhinitis. Methods Sixty patients with allergic rhinitis were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 30 cases in each group. The observation group was given Zuo’s yang-warming acupuncture therapy and the control group was given conventional acupuncture therapy. Acupuncture was performed once every other day, and 10 times constituted one course of treatment. After treatment, the therapeutic effect was evaluated, and the symptom scores of nasal itching, stuffy nose, sneezing and nasal discharge as well as their visual analog scale ( VAS) scores were observed. Results ( 1) Total effective rate of the observation group was 93.3%, and that of the control group was 63.3%, there was significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.01). ( 2) After treatment, the scores of the four symptoms were decreased obviously ( P<0.05 or P<0.01) , and the decrease in the observation group was superior to that in the control group ( P<0.01) . ( 3) After treatment, the VAS scores in both groups were decreased ( P<0.01) , and the decrease was more obvious in the observation group (P<0.01).
