Abstract:
Objective To explore the efficiency of auricular point sticking therapy in treatment of perioperative pain of mixed hemorrhoids.
Methods Totally 66 patients with perioperative pain of mixed hemorrhoids were randomly divided into control group and observation group, with 33 cases in each group. Control group was treated with ibuprofen sustained-release capsules, while observation group was treated with auricular point sticking therapy. The effective rate of analgesia, degree of pain, duration of pain, and pain scores at 1, 3, 5, 7 days after operation were compared between two groups.
Results The total effective rate of analgesia in the observation group was 96.97%, which was significantly higher than 75.76% in the control group(
P<0.05). The overall pain degree of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group(
P<0.05). The duration of pain in the observation group was(4.36±0.18)min, which was significantly shorter than(7.52±1.27)min in the control group(
P<0.05). The pain scores at 1, 3, 5, 7 days after operation in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(
P<0.05).
Conclusion For patients with perioperative pain of mixed hemorrhoids, auricular point sticking therapy can reduce degree of pain and shorten duration of pain.
