| 摘要 | [Objectives] To discuss the curative effect of the external application of self-prepared Chinese prescription decoction combined with gabapentin and cotton moxibustion on postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) and analyze its mechanism. [Methods] 96 patients with PHN were divided into the control group (group A) and observation group (group B) (n=48). In group A, the patients were given gabapentin orally and treated by cotton moxibustion. In group B, the patients were treated by the external application of self-prepared Chinese prescription decoction on the basis of the above basic treatment. The total effective rate, apparent time and recurrence rate of the two groups were compared. [Results] The cure rate (72.91%) and total effective rate (95.83%) of patients in group B were higher than those in group A (54.16%, 83.33%). The average apparent time [(5.79±1.40) d] and recurrence rate (5.97%) of patients in group B were significantly lower than those in group A [(7.03±4.37) d, 10.45%], and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). [Conclusions] The external application of self-prepared Chinese prescription decoction combined with gabapentin and cotton moxibustion therapy had a significant curative effect and low recurrence rate. |
