Abstract
Objective: To study the therapeutic effect of Lingze tablets combined with traditional Chinese medicine herbal
acupoint plasters on chronic prostatitis. Methods: A total of 64 patients with chronic prostatitis who were admitted to the Andrology Clinic of Shuyang County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from March 2021 to March 2023 were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, with 32 cases in each group. The control group took Lingze tablets orally, 4 tablets/time, 3 times/d; the treatment group took the same medication along with traditional Chinese medicine acupoint herbal plasters. The two groups of patients were treated continuously for 6 weeks, and the differences in the relevant indexes of the curative effect were observed. Results: The NIH-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI) scores of the two groups significantly reduced after treatment (P < 0.05), and the scores of the patients in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The treatment received in the treatment group achieved and efficacy of 96.88%, which was significantly higher than that of the group, which was 81.25% (P < 0.05). The maximum flow rate (MFR), average flow rate AFR, and urine output of the patients of both groups improved significantly after treatment (P < 0.05). However, the experimental group showed better improvements in these indicators (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Lingze tablets combined with traditional Chinese medicine acupoint herbal plasters can significantly improve the symptoms and urodynamic function of patients with chronic prostatitis.
