Objective:
To observe the clinical efficacy of Xiaoluowan (II) on epididymitis.
Methods:
61 patients with epididymitis were divided into two groups, acute group (23 cases) and non-acute group (38 cases) . Both groups of patients were treated with Xiaoluowan (II) 6g twice a day orally, while acute group patients were given antibiotics intravenously. The treatment period is 4 weeks. The acute group evaluates the therapeutic efficacy comprehensively based on changes in clinical symptoms and signs, while recording changes in visual pain score (VAS). Chronic epididymitis symptom index (CESI) was used to evaluate the clinical symptoms before and after treatment in the non-acute group, and the curative efficacy was evaluated.
Results:
After treatment, the VAS scores in the acute group decreased from 7.08 ± 1.09 to 2.10 ± 1.37 (P<0.05). Total efficiency is 82.60% . In the non-acute group, the scores of pain before and after treatment were 7.08 ± 1.09 and 2.10 ± 1.37, the scores of quality of life were 7.28 ± 1.14 and 1.87 ± 1.56, the total scores were 14.37 ± 1.78 and 3.97±2.73, respectively. The difference was significant(P<0.05). Total efficiency is 84.21% .
Conclusion:
Xiaoluowan (II) is an effective method to treat epididymitis and an effective supplement to modern medicine.
