Let's discuss the traditional Chinese medicine treatment of paraplegia that can't eat or vomit.

Paraplegia, inability to eat and vomit

Acupoint selection: 2-5 acupoints were selected for each main acupoint. 2-3 points were selected according to the symptoms. The first group of main points was filiform needling, and the second group was acupoint injection. Acupuncture and acupoint injection can be used alternately. Filiform Needling: deep needling is required, with a depth of 1-3 inches, with a large range of lifting, inserting and twisting, with medium strong stimulation intensity, so that the needling sensation of back points can be transmitted below the paralysis level, and the needling sensation of leg points can be stimulated as far as possible. Blood acupoints can be stimulated moderately or weakly, but the needling sensation of renmai acupoint should be transmitted to the pudendal part, and the needling sensation of Zhibian should be oblique inward, so that the needling sensation can be transmitted to the lower abdomen and Tianshu acupoint to the groin. The needle was punctured once a day for 1 hour each time.

In the first group, 2-3 points were selected each time, and the rest were selected each time. In order to match acupoints, we should try our best to make them get Qi and apply the method of tonifying and reducing. Keep the needle for 20-40 minutes. Once a day or every other day, 10 times as a course of treatment, with an interval of 3-5 days.

Location of Ashi point: midline of spine, between spinous processes at both ends of injury plane. This method is mainly through the stimulation of nerve stem treatment. Continuous pulse wave was used for 5-10 minutes each time, twice a day (1 time at back and abdomen points), 12 times a week, 3 months as a course of treatment.

matters needing attention

Those whose spinal cord function has not been recovered should actively strengthen functional training and carry out rehabilitation activities to promote the recovery of paralyzed muscles, prevent adhesion of joints, ligaments and nearby tendons, and maintain normal activities of limb joints. Physical education is a good means of rehabilitation, which plays a positive role in promoting the blood circulation and normal metabolism of the whole body and limbs, and recovering the functions of the body and limbs. For paraplegic people, sports play a more important role.
