The control group was given the conventional nerve nutrition drugs, the fumigation group was given traditional Chinese medicine fumigation additionally, and the combined treatment group was giv-en herbal fumigation combined with red light treatment additionally. After the 2-week treatment, the clinical symptom scores and the conduction velocity improvement of motor nerve and sensory nerve were compared among the three groups in order to evaluate the clini-cal efficacy. Results:The clinical symptom scores clinical efficacuy and the conduction velocity improvement of motor nerve and senso-ry nerve in the fumigation group and the combined treatment group were all better than those in the control group with significant differ-ences (P<0. 05), and the clinical symptom scores in the combined treatment group were better than those in the fumigation group (P<0. 05), while as for the clinical total efficay and the nerve conduction velocity, the combined treatment group showed no significant difference with the fumigation group (P>0. 05).
