Some of the items of “acupuncture” are described as follows.
”Small acupuncture is a closed-loosening procedure between surgical and non-surgical methods. It is formed by combining the needling method with the incisional surgery method. The operation is characterized by stabbing deep into the lesion at the treatment site and performing easy cutting and peeling techniques to relieve pain and eliminate disease. The advantages are simple operation, small incision, no suture, small damage, no adverse reaction, no obvious pain and fear of the patient, short treatment time, short course of treatment. The indications are mainly soft tissue injury lesions and osteoarthritic lesions, to solve the various pain symptoms caused by chronic soft tissue injury.
Chronic soft tissue injury includes the following forms.
1, violent injury: refers to external falls, hitting, touching, bumping, squeezing, pressing, pulling and other injuries caused to the soft tissues.
2, cumulative injury: refers to the relatively minor persistent repeated pulling, squeezing of the body’s soft tissue damage, and through the accumulation of a long time to form.
3, emotional injury: excessive emotional excitement can make the blood vessels swell, muscle contraction or spasm strongly, causing damage to the blood vessel wall, muscle fiber rupture; excessive emotional inhibition can slow down the circulation of body fluids, easy to retain in some parts, infarction, causing injury.
4, covert injury: this injury most parts of the patient perceived.
5, fatigue injury: refers to the limbs of the limbs, trunk, or visceral organs caused by long-term overload injury.
6, body self-weight injury: refers to the body is too obese, so that the weight-bearing parts of the soft tissue and heart overload, causing myocardial strain and weight-bearing parts of the soft tissue organ damage.
7, surgical injury: injury caused by surgery, such as local soft tissue adhesions in the surgical field.
8, lesion injury: the damage caused by a disease to the body, such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, caused by soft tissue damage around the joints.
The pathological changes of the above forms of damage to the soft tissues of the body are almost the same, i.e. adhesions, scarring, contractures, blockages, etc., which are produced by the body in the process of repairing the above injuries, and these changes can lead to new diseases.
The indications for acupuncture treatment are
1, all kinds of chronic soft tissue injury caused by the extremities and trunk of some persistent pain: including cervical spondylosis, frozen shoulder, lumbar pain, pear-shaped muscle injury, chronic hip muscle injury, femoral head necrosis, osteoarthritis of the knee, knee ligament injury, patellar ligament injury, infrapatellar fat pad inflammation, patellar chondromalacia.
2, part of the bone spurs (or osteophytes): the radical treatment of bone spurs requires the need to use needles to loosen the tense and spastic muscles and ligaments. Such as lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spine osteophytes, heel bone spurs, etc.
3, bursitis: the application of needle knife will bursa from the deep side of the incision, after the operation with the finger will be flattened bursa, can be cured.
4, all kinds of tendon sheath inflammation: manifested as tendon sheath swelling edema, pricking open the tendon sheath with needle knife, can make the inflammation can be absorbed, for narrow tendon sheath inflammation, carpal tunnel syndrome, metatarsal tunnel syndrome, needle knife treatment effect is better.
5, muscle and ligament accumulative injury: muscle fibers and ligament minor injury in the repair process, between the muscle, ligament scarring adhesions, causing microcirculatory disorders, resulting in pain, needle knife for adhesion separation, the efficacy is remarkable.
6, traumatic muscle spasm and muscle tension: in the clinical performance is extremely complex, the application of needle knife without affecting the motor function of the region, cut off part of the spasm and tension of the muscle fibers, can be cured.
7, surgical injury sequelae: the implementation of incisional surgery near the extremity joints is prone to tendon sheath narrowing, fascia, muscle ligaments, joint capsule adhesions, scarring and contractures, resulting in dysfunction, needle knife closed release desirable curative effect.
8, pathological injury sequelae: refers to certain diseases caused by soft tissue degeneration adhesions, scarring, contracture, such as osteomyelitis after healing and rheumatoid arthritis caused by soft tissue degeneration caused by joint extension and flexion restrictions, acupuncture and knife therapy has a very good effect on this.
