Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of hip bath therapy using detumescence and analgesia prescription after surgical incision and drainage of perianal abscess.Methods Patients treated with perianal abscess incision and drainage in Wuxi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in recent years were divided into two groups.The control group was treated with conventional therapy,while the observation group was treated with combined hip bath therapy using detumescence and analgesia prescription.Comparisons of the curative effects were made between the two groups.Results The total effective rate was 93.3% in the observation group,which was statistically higher than that in the control group (80.0%) (P <0.05).Shorter time of detumescence,wound exudate disappearance,wound pain relieve,dysuria disappearance,and wound healing was observed in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05).In the follow-up visit 6 months after surgery,there were 3 cases and 7 cases of abscess occurred in the observation group and the control group,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).There were 18 cases and 16 cases of anal fistula occurred in the observation group and the control group,respectively,with no difference between the two groups.The overall recurrence rate was 63.3% in the observation group,which was significantly lower than that in the control group (83.3%) (P<0.05).In addition,the overall satisfaction rate was 96.7% in the observation group,which was significantly higher than that in the control group (83.3%) (P<0.05).Conclusion After surgical incision and drainage of perianal abscess,conventional treatment combined with hip bath therapy using detumescence and analgesia prescription can effectively promote recovery,reduce recurrence rate,and improve curative effect and satisfaction of patients,which is worthy of clinical application.
