Nursing Care of a Case of Left Frontal Zoster Treated by Zhuang Medicine Juncus Effusus Moxibustion Therapy
This case report summarizes the treatment of a 58-year-old female patient who was admitted to the hospital due to continuous pain in the left frontal area for 3 days and the appearance of blisters for 1 day. She was diagnosed with left frontal zoster. The patient's clinical manifestations included persistent burning pain and clustered blisters, which did not cross the midline and were accompanied by purulent exudation. Through assessment of the patient's pain, psychological state, etc., a personalized nursing plan was formulated and Zhuang medicine Juncus effusus moxibustion therapy was implemented. The results were significant, effectively shortening the healing time, relieving pain, and reducing the risk of infection. Moreover, it has the characteristics of simple operation and easy access to materials. This case emphasizes the importance of comprehensive treatment and nursing in the treatment of zoster, especially the potential application of Juncus effusus moxibustion therapy in zoster, providing a reference for future clinical practice.
