Implementing Bloodletting and Cupping Therapy Based on the "Remove Stagnation, Unblock Obstruction" Theory in the Nursing Care of a Herpes Zoster Patient
This article summarizes the nursing experience of applying bloodletting and cupping therapy guided by the "Remove Stagnation, Unblock Obstruction" theory in the treatment of a herpes zoster patient. The patient's condition was divided into three stages, with differentiated acupoint selection, needling techniques, and cupping methods tailored to each phase. Building upon the traditional external treatment method of "bloodletting and cupping," variations in bloodletting techniques, puncture sites, and cupping duration were employed. Compared to conventional approaches, this method demonstrated faster efficacy in promoting wound healing, alleviating neuropathic pain, and shortening treatment duration, yielding significant therapeutic outcomes.
