Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Xiaoyusan plaster and Daoyin in the treatment of cervical vertebrae disease, to search new methods in the treatment of cervical vertebrae disease. METHODS: From May 2007 to April 2008, 63 patients with disease of cervical vertebrae were treated. By odd or even numbers in random digits table, the patients were randomly divided into two groups included treatment group and control group. Thirty-three patients in the treatment group were treated with Xiaoyusan plaster and Daoyinincluded 21 males and 12 females with an average age of (30.60+/-7.89) years ranging from 20 to 49. Thirty patients in the control group were treated withVotalin Sustained Release Tabletsincluded 16 males and 14 females with an average age of (32.43+/-8.00) years ranging from 20 to 49. The pain, pressing pain, activity of cervical vertebrae were observed before and after treatment in two groups. RESULTS: Compared the scores before and after treatment in treatment group: pain (t=8.953, P<0.001); pressing pain (t=7.867, P<0.001); activity (t=6.918, P<0.001). Compared the scores before and after treatment in control group: pain (t=8.733, P<0.001); pressing pain (t=7.663, P<0.001); activity (=5.066, P<0.001). The symptoms such as pains, pressing pain, movement restriction improved significantly in two groups. CONCLUSION:Xiaoyusan plaster and Daoyin are one of the effective methods in the treatment of disease of cervical vertebrae, especially can improve symptoms and correct dynamic balance of cervical vertebrae.
