Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of cupping treatment for recurrent mycotic vaginitis. Method Three hundred and eighty-three patients with recurrent mycotic vaginitis were randomly allocated, including 188 cases to a control group and 195 cases to an observation group. The control group received vaginal administration of clotrimazole and oral administration of sporanox and the observation group, cupping treatment in addition. Re-examination was made after two weeks of treatment. The clinical therapeutic effects and the clinical scores were compared between the two groups. Result In the observation group, clinical cure occurred in 96 patients, accounting for 49.2%; marked effectiveness, in 45 patients, accounting for 23.1%; effectiveness, in 34 patients, accounting for 17.4%; ineffectiveness, in 20 patients, accounting for 10.3%, with a total efficacy rate of 89.7%. In the control group, clinical cure occurred in 78 patients, accounting for 41.5%; marked effectiveness, in 34 patients, accounting for 18.1%; effectiveness, in 33 patients, accounting for 17.6%; ineffectiveness, in 43 patients, accounting for 22.9%, with a total efficacy rate of 77.1%.The clinical therapeutic effect was significantly better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). There was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the clinical score in the two groups (P<0.05) and a statistically significant post-treatment difference in the clinical score between the two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Cupping can improve the clinical therapeutic effect on recurrent mycotic vaginitis and relieve its clinical symptoms.
