Abstract
Objective: To study the application effect of the combination of special advantages of Zhuang medical technology for migraine patients. Methods: 80 patients with migraine were selected and all were admitted to Mingxiu Branch of International Zhuang Hospital Affiliated to Guangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February 2019 to February 2020. Random number table method was used to divide patients into two groups, with 40 patients in each group. Among them, the patients in the study group were treated with the therapy combining characteristics of Zhuang medicine and superior technology, that is, Zhuang medicine meridian tendon therapy + Zhuang medicine lotus needle cupping blood stasis removal therapy + Zhuang medicine thread moxibustion therapy + Zhuang medicine acupuncture therapy; the patients in the control group were treated with conventional Western medicine. The efficacy of the two treatments were compared. Results: After treatment, the total effective rate of clinical treatment in the study group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05), and the visual analogue scale (VAS) score and integral improvement rate were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The onset time of action was statistically shorter than that of the control group (P < 0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the adverse reaction rate between the two groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The combination of Zhuang medicine’s characteristic and superior techniques for patients with migraine has a significant curative effect.
