Abstract:Objective To observe the clinical effect of press needle Erbai point combined with Qudu decoction hip bath on alleviating postoperative pain and edema in patients with mixed hemorrhoids of damp heat type, so as to provide a reference for developing personalized nursing for patients with mixed hemorrhoids after operation. Methods A total of 58 patients with mixed hemorrhoids of damp heat type were divided into a control group and an experimental group according to whether received press-needle treatment, with 29 cases in each group.The control group was treated with Qudu Decoction hip bath, while the experimental group was treated with press needle Erbai point combined with Qudu decoction hip bath.The VAS scores (1 day, 3 days and 7 days after surgery) and edema scores (3 days and 7 days after surgery) were observed and compared between the two groups. Results According to VAS scores in the two groups at different time points, the intervention effect, time effect and intervention × time effect were significant (all P<0.05), the VAS scores on 3 days and 7 days after the surgery in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (both P<0.05).The edema scores on 3 days and 7 days after the surgery in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (both P<0.05). Conclusion Press needle Erbai point combined with Qudu decoction hip bath can effectively alleviate postoperative pain and edema in patients with mixed hemorrhoids of damp heat type, and there is no adverse reaction.
