Abstract:Objective:To observe the curative effect of the therapy of Fire-Dragon Cupping combined with myofascial trigger point on the treatment of chronic pelvic inflammatory pain. Methods : A total of 84 patients with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease were divided into the control group and the observation group according to odd and even numbers,with 42 patients in each group. The control group was treated with conventional modern medicine,and the observation group was additionally treated with Fire-Dragon Cupping combined with myofascial trigger point based on the conventional modern medicine. The clinical effects in the two groups were observed,and the changes in the scores of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome before and after treatment, and the recovery time of symptoms between the two groups were compared. Results:The total effective rate was 95.24% in the observation group and 76.19% in the control group, the difference being significant (P<0.05). After treatment,the VAS scores of lower abdomen and lumbosacral region in the two groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment (P<0.05),and the above two scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the TCM syndrome scores of the main and secondary syndromes in the two groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment (P<0.05),and the above TCM syndrome scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The improvement time of lumbosacral pain, abnormal leucorrhea, lower abdominal distention and pelvic mass in the observation group was respectively shorter than that in the control group, differences being significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The therapy of Fire- Dragon Cupping combined with myofascial trigger point has a good effect on the treatment of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease,which can relieve clinical symptoms and pain significantly.
