Interventions:

20

Group:

Electroacupuncture group

Sample size:

Intervention:

To receive the stimulation of Tianshu electroacupuncture all needles will be twisted lifted and inserted during use for at least 30 seconds in order to achieve "qi" (including acid numbness swelling pain comprehensive feeling).Electroacupuncture parameters: The density wave of 2/100 Hz is selected and the current intensity is gradually increased until the needle vibrates slightly but does not cause discomfort to the patient.

Intervention code:

20

Group:

Sham Electroacupuncture group

Sample size:

Intervention:

Superficial skin puncture (depth of 2 to 3 mm) is performed at non-Tianshu points, and no qi acupuncture operation is performed; The location of non-Tianshu points is far away from the traditional Tianshu points or meridians

Intervention code:
