| Abstract
|
| [Objective] To observe the difference and characteristics of curative effect of acupuncture on sphenopalatine ganglion in the treatment of allergic rhinitis in different age groups.[Methods] In this study, the 60 patients were divided into young group (6~29 years old), young and middle-aged group (30~39 years old) and middle and old group (40~70 years old). Self-control and intergroup control were used. The scores of nasal symptoms, nasal mucositis related quality of life questionnaire and "rhinitis weekly record" were used as the main observation indexes.[Results] There were significant differences in TNSS, TNNSS, RQLQ and rhinitis weekly records at the end of treatment and 3 months after treatment (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in the above two indexes among different age groups(P>0.05).[Conclusion] Acupuncture of sphenopalatine nerve can effectively improve nasal symptoms and concomitant symptoms of allergic rhinitis in patients of all ages, and the clinical efficacy is not limited by age. |
