To Observe The Interfering Effectiveness Of Appling Sticking Auricular Points Combined With Acupuncture In Treating Original Trigeminus Pain Symptom

Objective:This research adopts VAS and trigeminus pain symptom score as the observed indicators to compare and observe the immediate pain killing effectiveness and the efficacy differences after the first, second and third courses of treating original trigeminus pain symptom by auricular points and regular therapy or exclusively by regular therapy so that the clinical pain killing effectiveness of treating original trigeminus pain symptom by sticking auricular points can be observed and evaluated.Method:In this research,60 patients with original trigeminus pain are observed, who are randomly assigned into 1:1 group A (by auricular points and regular therapy) and group B (by regular therapy). Group A is treated by sticking auricular points:cheek, stomach, sympathesis, shenmen, subcortex, endocrine along with regular acupoints:Sibai, Xiaguan, Dicang, Cuanzhu, Hegu, Taichong, Neiting and those for treating specific symptoms; while, Group B is treated with regular acupoints in the similar way to Group A. The VAS (pre-treatment and after first treatment) and trigeminus pain symptom score (after the first, second, third treatment course) are respectively compared; as well, the efficacies of trigeminus pain symptom score between these two groups'are compared.Result:1. The immediate post-treatment VAS of both groups are significantly lower than those of pre-treatment (P<0.01). The comparison between the group of auricular points with regular therapy and the one of regular therapy (P<0.05) shows the immediate pain killing efficacy of Group A is more effective than that of Group B.2. After the first treatment course, the trigeminus pain symptom scores of both groups are obviously lower than those of before treatment (P<0.01). The comparison between the two groups (P<0.05) shows the efficacy of auricular points group is better than the other group. After the second treatment course, the symptom scores of both groups are remarkably lower than those of pre-treatment (P<0.01). The comparison between the two groups (P<0.05) demonstrates that at the end of the first treatment course, the score of Group B is higher; whereas, the efficacy of Group A is more effective and steadier than Group B. After the third treatment course, the symptom scores of both groups are significantly lower than those of pre-treatment (P<0.01). The scores of Group A are considerably lower than those of pre-treatment (P<0.05). The efficacy of group A is obviously better than that of the other group.3. At the end of all treatment courses, the comparative score P<0.05 shows the efficacies of the two groups are remarkably different-the group by auricular points and regular therapy is better than the other one.Conclusion:1. Both auricular points with regular therapy and regular therapy are effective in immediate and after three courses treatment of original trigeminus pain; while, the auricular therapy way is better.2. Auricular points are superior in coordinating with regular acupoints and maintaining steady efficacy of treating.
