Abstract:

Objective To observe the effect of traditional Chinese medicine external treatment on acne vulgaris. Methods
Sixty patients with acne vulgaris were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. The treatment group was treated
with a sharp needle for purulent drainage and bleeding, followed by a rolling needle for the introduction of traditional Chinese
medicine solution. The control group was treated with oral tanshinone capsules combined with external application of clindamy
cin solution. The acne grade, skin lesion hardness, efficacy, satisfaction, safety, and recurrence rate between the two groups were
compared after treatment. Results After treatment, the treatment group showed better levels of acne, skin lesion hardness, skin
repair efficacy, and satisfaction than the control group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in adverse reac
tions between the two groups (P>0.05). The recurrence rate in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).
Conclusion Compared with the combination of oral administration of tanshinone and topical application of clindamycin solu
tion, traditional Chinese medicine combined with external treatment has stronger repairing ability and better curative effect on
acne vulgaris.
