Abstract

Objective: To introduce and analyze the method and effect of functional acupuncture in treating one case of elderly type 2 diabetic oculomotor nerve palsy. Methods: The main emphasis is on taking the functional position of the affected area, selecting the functional acupuncture area, and choosing the electroacupuncture stimulation dose. That is, the functional acupuncture method is the main acupuncture method during treatment, that is, the functional position is taken before the upper eyelid acupuncture, and the patient’s left upper eyelid Lift to above the functional position (maximum lifting position-eye open state), determine the muscle functional area around the eye (needle entry area) of the raised eyelid, and select acupoints in the corresponding functional area around the eye: Cuanzhu, Yuyao, Sizhu For Kong, Shenting, Tou Linqi and Ashi points, choose a needle with a model of 0.35 mm×40 mm, take a 0.3 to 1 inch flat puncture, and use an electroacupuncture to form a dense wave. Results: After 20 days of functional acupuncture, the symptoms of ptosis of the left eye of the patient improved significantly, and the limitation of movement of the left eye was significantly improved. Follow-up six months later, there was no recurrence, and the clinical effect was satisfactory. Conclusion: The essence of functional acupuncture improvement is to re-form a powerful neuromuscular effect in the muscles, destroy the paralysis and weakness of the targeted muscle groups, and rebuild the normal neuromuscular coupling mode. The goal of this balancing mechanism is to destroy abnormal muscle paralysis and The reflex pattern of muscle weakness reconstructs an orderly and normal neuromuscular reflex.
