Abstract：Objective To investigate the postoperative effect of thunder-fire moxibustion on patients with anorectal diseases. Methods A total of 160 patients with anorectal diseases admitted to Nantong Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Jiangsu Province from July to December 2021 were selected, and they were divided into intervention group and control group by random number table method, with 80 cases in each group. The control group were performed postoperative auricular point pressing with bean and herbal fumigation, and the intervention group received postoperative thunder-fire moxibustion based on the control group. Both groups were treated for 14 days. Visual analog scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the pain of the two groups at 6, 24, 48 and 72 h after surgery. The incidence of complications within one week after operation was compared between the two groups. The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and postoperative recovery were compared between the two groups at two and seven days after surgery. Results After surgery, VAS scores of the two groups at different time points were statistically significant (P＜0.05). VAS scores at 24, 48 and 72 h in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). The total incidence of postoperative complications in the intervention group was lower than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05). There were statistically significant differences in CRP level between the two groups at different time points (P＜0.05). The CRP levels in the intervention group was lower than those in the control group at two and seven days after surgery, the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). The disappearance of traumatic edema, pain, wound healing and hospital stay in the intervention group were shorter than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). Conclusion Thunder-fire moxibustion combined with auricular point pressing with bean and herbal fumigation can alleviate postoperative pain of patients with anorectal diseases, relieve inflammatory response, prevent postoperative complications, and promote recovery.
