Pain is one of the common non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease,and about 40%-85%patients with Parkinson's disease have pain symptoms.Professor ZHUANG Li-Xing proposed that pain in Parkinson's disease could be classified under the category of comorbidity of"tremor syndrome"and"pain syndrome",and its pathogenesis is characterized by"deficiency in origin and excess in superficiality,pain due to failure of nourishment and pain due to obstruction".For the treatment of pain in Parkinson's disease,acupuncture therapy is performed usually on the following acupoints:acupuncture on Sishenzhen[the four points 1.5 inches apart from all sides of Baihui(GV20)point],Shenting(GV24),Yintang(EX-HN3)and Sanyinjiao(SP6)was for tonifying the brain and supporting healthy qi,replenishing qi and blood to relieve pain;acupuncture on Hegu(LI4)and Taichong(LR3)with the manipulation of mildly conducting reversed qi and conserving vital essence was for activating qi movement to relieve pain;acupuncture on Shenmen(HT7)and Neiguan(PC6)was for tranquilizing mind,so as to relieve the increased pain due to anxiety and other emotional disorders.Acupuncture for the treatment of pain in Parkinson's disease can achieve the efficacy of treating symptom and root cause simultaneously,relieving the discomforts physically and mentally,thus to relieve patients'pain and improve the quality of life effectively.

The paper introduces professor ZHUANG Li-xing's clinical experience in treatment of intra-uterine residue and lochia after drug abortion. Professor ZHUANG believes that this disorder is related to "dysfunction of the thoroughfare vessel and the conception vessel, qi deficiency and blood stagnation, and retention of turbid qi in the uterus" in pathogenesis. The treating principle should focus on "regulating the functions of the thoroughfare vessel and the conception vessel, tonifying qi and eliminating stasis, as well as promoting qi movement". Besides Hegu (LI 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6), the acupoints are added from the conception vessel. The Daoqi Tongjing needling technique (the specific technique for directing qi and preserving essence) is exerted flexibly instead of traditional reinforcing and reducing technique of acupuncture to tonify qi and remove stasis.
