Since 1975 we have treated 1010 patients with erosion of cervix by needling "Xiayi" point. Of 1010 treated cases, 630 are cured, 280 improved and 100 ineffective. There are 419 patients with the I degree erosion of cervix, 467 with II degree, 124 with III degree. The therapeutic effects on cases of I and II degree are satisfactory, while those on cases of III degree are less effective. Remarkable difference in therapeutic effects are noted (P<0.01)>0.05). The acupuncture effective rate is 92% for I and II degree patients, 75% for III degree patients, the total effective rate being 90.1%.
Procedures:
Point Sanyinjiao is selected. Apply a 5 cm. stainless thin needle on Sanyinjiao points of both sides. Patients may take recumbent or sitting position. During needling, the patient should relaxedly extend his legs. The body of the needle and the local skin of the patient are sterilized with bromogeramine. While needling, an angle of 30ยบ between the tip of the needle and the skin is maintained. After inserting the body of needle should be kept parallel with the skin, while the tip of the needle is directed upwards. The inserted needle is 1-1.5 cun in depth and kept in place for 20--30 minutes. According to the method mentioned above, in the course of the needling the patient felt no sensation of numbness and distension, but resulting in therapeutic effects. In case the patient complains of sensation of numbness and distension, the needle should be withdrawn and inserted along the skin again. We didn't give the strong stimulation by a deeper insertion on the patient. Therefore whether the deeper insertion gives a better result remains to be seen.
