To search for the best therapy for recurrent herpes simplex.
Ninety-six cases were randomly divided into an auricular point sticking plus moxibustion group (treatment group, n = 54), a medication group (control group, n = 42). The treatment group were treated with auricular sticking at points Spleen, Lung, Kidney, and others, and moxibustion was applied at Zusanli (ST 36), Fenglong (ST 40), and local blister; the control group were treated by oral administration and external application of aciclovir.
The cured rate and the total effective rate were 55.5% and 100.0% in the treatment group, and 9.5% and 61.9% in the control group, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05).
The auricular point sticking plus moxibustion is a better therapy for recurrent herpes simplex, with a significantly better therapeutic effect than that of the medication.
探寻复发性单纯疱疹的最佳治疗方法。
将96例患者随机分为耳穴贴压加艾灸组（治疗组，n = 54）和药物组（对照组，n = 42）。治疗组采用耳穴贴压脾、肺、肾等穴位，并艾灸足三里（ST 36）、丰隆（ST 40）及局部水疱处；对照组采用口服及外用阿昔洛韦治疗。
治疗组的治愈率和总有效率分别为55.5%和100.0%，对照组分别为9.5%和61.9%，两组比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）。
耳穴贴压加艾灸是治疗复发性单纯疱疹的较好方法，其疗效明显优于药物治疗。
