Objective: To analyze the effect of acupuncture and moxibustion combined with hot pressing of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, and to provide reference for the research work of relevant personnel. Method: 92 patients with lumbar disc herniation admitted to our hospital from January 5, 2020 to January 5, 2021 were selected as the study subjects. According to the different treatment methods of patients, they were divided into a traditional group of 40 cases and a new group of 40 cases. The traditional group received acupuncture and moxibustion treatment. On this basis, the new group received traditional Chinese medicine hot pressing treatment and analyzed the final results. Result: Before intervention, there was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups of subjects, P>0.05. After intervention, compared with the traditional group, the new group had lower VAS scores, P<0.05; The effective rate of disease treatment in the new group was 95.65%, while in the traditional group it was 80.43%. Compared to the traditional group, the new group has a higher effective rate of disease treatment, P<0.05. Conclusion: For patients with prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc, acupuncture and moxibustion combined with hot pressing of traditional Chinese medicine can alleviate the pain of patients and improve the efficiency of disease treatment. This method has strong safety and high effectiveness. It is worth further promoting and applying in clinical practice.
