Abstract:Objective To explore the clinical value of external application of traditional Chinese medicine combined with ultrashort wave in the treatment of meniscus injury. Methods A total of 80 patients of meniscus injury admitted to Haian People’s Hospital of Jiangsu Province from September 2019 to March 2020 were selected as the research objects. According to the random number table method, they were divided into control group and observation group, with 40 cases in each group. The control group was given conventional treatment, and the observation group was treated with external application of traditional Chinese medicine combined with ultrashort wave on the basis of control group. The clinical efficacy of the two groups were compared, and the knee joint pain scores, knee joint movement degree, knee joint swelling degree, and knee joint atrophy degree of the two groups were compared before and after treatment. Results The total effective rate of observation group was better than that of control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Overall analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in time point comparison, between groups comparison, and interaction (P < 0.05). Further pial comparison, intra-group comparison: visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, knee joint swelling degree, and knee joint atrophy degree at the 2nd and 4th weeks after treatment were lower than those before treatment, and the 4th week was lower than the 2nd week (P < 0.05), knee joint activity degree of the two groups in the 2nd and 4th week after treatment were bigger than those before treatment, and the 4th week was bigger than that in the 2nd week (P < 0.05); Comparison between groups: there was no statistically significant difference in VAS scores, knee joint activity degree, knee joint swelling degree, and knee joint atrophy degree before treatment (P < 0.05), VAS scores, knee joint swelling degree, and knee joint atrophy degree of observation group at the 2nd and 4th week after treatment were lower than those of control group (P < 0.05), the knee joint activity of observation group at the 2nd and 4th week after treatmentcwas were bigger than those of the control group. Conclusion External application of traditional Chinese medicine combined with ultrashort wave can effectively promote the functional recovery of the affected limb in patients with meniscus injury, and the clinical effect is significant.
