溫針齊刺結(jié)合推拿治療風(fēng)寒阻絡(luò)型肱骨外上髁炎的臨床療效觀察摘要：

目的：觀察溫針齊刺結(jié)合推拿治療風(fēng)寒阻絡(luò)型肱骨外上髁炎的臨床療效。

方法：選取60例患有風(fēng)寒阻絡(luò)型肱骨外上髁炎的患者，隨機分為觀察組和對照組，每組30例。對照組采用針灸、理療等治療方法，觀察組則在對照組的基礎(chǔ)上加入溫針齊刺和推拿治療。療程為4周。比較兩組治療前后的肩關(guān)節(jié)生理功能、疼痛程度、病情緩解率等指標(biāo)。

結(jié)果：觀察組的治療效果明顯優(yōu)于對照組。治療4周后，觀察組肩關(guān)節(jié)生理功能逐漸恢復(fù)，疼痛程度和病情緩解率均明顯優(yōu)于對照組。

結(jié)論：溫針齊刺結(jié)合推拿治療風(fēng)寒阻絡(luò)型肱骨外上髁炎能顯著改善患者癥狀，刺激氣血循環(huán)，增強肩關(guān)節(jié)生理功能，具有顯著的臨床療效。

關(guān)鍵詞：肱骨外上髁炎，溫針齊刺，推拿，治療效果，臨床療效觀察。

Objective:Toobservetheclinicalefficacyofwarmingacupuncturecombinedwithmassagetherapyinthetreatmentofwind-cold-obstructing-tendonstypeofsupraspinatustendinitis.

Method:Sixtypatientswithwind-cold-obstructing-tendonstypeofsupraspinatustendinitiswererandomlydividedintoanobservationgroupandacontrolgroup,with30patientsineachgroup.Thecontrolgroupwastreatedwithacupunctureandphysicaltherapy,whiletheobservationgroupincorporatedwarmingacupunctureandmassagetherapyonthebasisofthecontrolgroup.Thetreatmentcoursewas4weeks.Thephysiologicalfunctionoftheshoulderjoint,painlevel,andrateofsymptomreliefbeforeandafterthetreatmentwerecompared.

Results:Thetreatmenteffectoftheobservationgroupwassignificantlybetterthanthatofthecontrolgroup.After4weeks,thephysiologicalfunctionoftheshoulderjointgraduallyrecovered,andthepainlevelandrateofsymptomreliefweresignificantlybetterthanthoseofthecontrolgroup.

Conclusion:Warmingacupuncturecombinedwithmassagetherapycansignificantlyimprovethesymptomsofpatientswithwind-cold-obstructing-tendonstypeofsupraspinatustendinitis,stimulatebloodcirculation,enhancethephysiologicalfunctionoftheshoulderjoint,andhassignificantclinicalefficacy.
