方法:病灶局部常规消毒.用梅花针扣刺疱疹及病变范围, 皮肤微出血.然后用闪火法拔罐.拔出红黄相间的液体.消毒卫生纸擦净.

注意:

1.毒液一定要拔净,一次拔不净,要反复拔,直到干净为止.

2.病变部位一定要拔严,不留空位.

说明;

1.用本方法治疗完毕后,立刻止痛.有的患者病变部位被衣被接触即疼痛难忍,但是在拔罐过程中,只有轻微的拔罐造成的抽吸感.

2.病变部位糜烂的,不需梅花针扣刺,直接拔罐 既可.拔完后,用红外线烤干.

3.有的部位用拔罐无法操作时,可用10—20毫升的注射针管,切去头部,对准病变部位,抽吸针柄,可起到和拔罐同样的效果.现在则 用 真空拔罐代替.

4.操作完毕后.我一般不再消毒处理.也无感染的病例.但是,为了操作规范,请大家在运用时,自己掌握.

5.此方法优于其他方法.我治疗将近100例,均一次治愈.

我治带状庖疹一针绝

至阳穴点刺放血加拔罐轻者一次重者五次愈，不吃药打针绝效一百多例未见后一神经疼者

三商穴可治愈带状疱疹

三商穴为少商、中商、老商三穴。中商在拇指爪甲正中根部下一分许处；老商在拇指爪甲角尺侧一分处。

病例：王某，男，26岁。三天前右上腹起一簇密集的疱疹，如米粒大，环形如带、有灼热刺痛感。局部皮肤异常敏感，着衣则痛加剧。舌质红苔微黄，脉浮滑。针刺三商穴放血，各挤出粘稠血数滴。针一次后疼痛明显减轻，经治疗数次后病愈。

体会：带状疱疹，又名缠腰火丹、蛇盘疮。本病多因情志不遂；或肝胆火盛、内蕴湿热，外感湿毒之邪所致。外邪侵入人体，肺经首当其冲，而“肺合皮毛”治应在肺，三商穴属肺，能宣泄肺热、疏散肺经之邪，故能治毒邪入表之带状疱疹。

带状疱疹方法：

取鱼腥草干品30-50克(鲜品300克)，加水适量，煎汤，温服。每日1剂，分3次服，可连续服用3-7天。

带状疱疹用了三十年的验方

冰片10克 雄黄 6克 百分之九十五乙醇100毫升，用脱脂棉蘸药涂患处，每天数次，轻者一天，重者五天痊愈。

带状疱疹

把带状疱疹针破，然后用脱脂棉蘸去其黄粘水，用病毒灵片研碎涂抹。

初期会有寒热往来的情况，可以选用小柴胡汤加减。

现代医学描述：

a. 带状疱疹为一种病毒性感染。

b.引起带状疱疹的病毒与水痘病毒大小相同，且抗原性亦无异，因此本病也被认为是许多年前，初次感染的水痘病毒(Chicken-poxor Varicella)潜伏在感觉神经节的再度活动所致。

c.大概得过一次后不会再复发(体力极度衰弱者，偶会得到第二次)。

（二）传统医学描述：

a.本病多因情志不遂，饮食失调，以致脾失健运，湿浊内停，郁而化热，湿热搏结，兼感毒邪而发。

b.以针灸立场言，带状疱疹病常为心经火旺、脾肺湿热与肝胆火旺所引发。

二、带状疱疹的症状：

(一)现代医学描述：

a.常突然发生，集簇性水泡(红色斑丘疹，排列成带状，沿一侧周围神经节分布区出现，排列成带状。

b.伴有强烈疼痛，多数患者有持续性疼痛，往往在皮疹痊愈后疼痛仍不消失。

c.本病前前驱症状为沿神经干周围之疼痛约持续三日，且多合并所所属淋巴结肿胀疼痛。

d.皮疹为连续性带状或斑状，沿神经分布出现在一至数个及节，初期为隆起性红斑，迅即形成一群有中心脐窝状大小水疱，渐渐为血疱(Hernorrhagicbulls)乃至脓疱，最后覆盖有坏死性痂皮。

e.常侵犯腰胁部，胸部，颈部，脸部及大腿内侧面，一般不超过正中线，（非常少数病情严重，或体力极度差患者偶会越过正中线，形成两侧皆有的现象）。

f.胸部及腹部带状疱疹之分布，明显地终止在中线，绝无蔓延至对侧可能，此点为诊断特征。

g.侵犯至三叉神经、颈部或腰骶部则有时会造成诊断上的困扰。

h.三叉神经的眼分枝也可为容易受侵之处，典型的皮疹出现后，头痛将不能避免。

i. 鼻睫分枝受侵，鼻背的两侧可有水疱出现。

j.眼变化将自结膜炎，结膜角膜炎乃至虹膜睫状体炎合并绿内障，临床症状通常为羞明及眼剌痛感。

k.患者因有白血病、淋巴瘤而抵抗力降低时，皮疹则不仅局部性，可呈散在性水疱，类似因水痘散发在四肢或躯干。如出现此种临床症状，则应详细检查患者是否有潜在性白血病等。

l.皮肤病变通常在发病后十日趋向痊愈，严重的坏死，额部带状疱疹则将延迟，病程约4-6周。

m.本病在十五岁以下儿童极为少见，大半数患者年龄超过45岁。

(二)传统医学描述：

a.《医宗金鉴》之“缠腰火丹”记载，此症俗名蛇串疮，台湾民间叫飞蛇。

b.有干、湿不同，紅黄之异，皆如累累珠形，干者色红赤，形如云片，上起风粟，作疼发热。湿者色黄白，水疱大小不等，作烂流水，较干者多疼。

c.《外科启玄》中有关蜘蛛疮记载，此疮生于皮肤间与水巢相似，淡红且痛，五七个成堆，亦能荫开。

三、带状疱疹的治疗：

（一）现代医学治疗：

1.下列数种情况要特殊治疗：

(1)脸部：带状疱疹有可能留下疤痕，而且面积不小，故一定要及早治疗。若在三叉神经的眼支干，可能造成角膜溃疡，导致视力受损。

(2)年老者：超过六十岁，带状疱疹会造成严重且持续数月的神经痛。神经痛是因神经纤维本身发炎而引起间歇性的刺痛。

(3)免疫不全者：例如癌症患者带状疱疹可扩散至全身各器官，包括引起肺炎及脑炎。

以上三种情形，可使用Acyclovir 800mg，每天五次，连续使用五天，可抑制病毒繁殖。使用Acyclovir第二天，可开始用Prednisolone 6O mg/天，可抑制神经发炎，连续使用十天，但Prednisalone勿用于免疫不全者。

2.处理措施

(1)一般患者应注意勿发生细菌感染及减轻疼痛，局部可外用含抗生素之药膏。

(2)冷敷：以生理盐水，或冷开水浸泡纱布冷敷，一次30分钟，每日三次，可使患部迅速干燥，减轻疼痛。

(3)病患能卧床休息则应减少衣服摩擦，疼感及不适等定能减少。

(4)剧痛时，可服用Demerol一颗。

(5)神经痛可用Capsaicine软膏镇痛。

(6)减轻疼痛可用可待因(Codein)常有疗效。

(7)一般内服皮质类脂醇并不能缩短病程，但可防止年老者引起的治疗后之神经痛。

(8)沿神经节以Ethylchloride喷雾冷冻为简单有效方法。

(9)但止痛剂对许多病患并无很好效果。

(10)精神作用对神经痛影响很大，故应鼓励患者恢复原有工作。

建议处方如下：

(1)Dicloxacillin 250mg，6小时一颗。

(2)Brufen，6小时一颗，饭后服用。

(3)Panadol，6小时一颗，饭后服用。

(4)Valium，睡前一颗。

（二）传统医学治疗：

依辩证论治，分为三型施治：

1．热盛型：

[主证]局部皮损鲜红，疱壁紧张，灼热刺痛。自觉口苦咽干、口渴，烦闷易易怒，食欲不佳。小便赤，大便干或不爽。舌质红，舌苔薄黄或黄厚，脉弦滑微数。

[辩证]脾失健运，蕴湿不化，兼感毒邪。

[治法] 健脾利湿，佐以解毒。

四.结论：
l.中西医对带状疱疹并无特效药五，只能减轻疼痛，故针灸可辅其不足，一方面能消除水疱与红斑，一方面能防止带状疱疹消失后遗留的神经痛，且可缩短疗程及无不良副作用。针灸对带状疱疹的疗效除了双门学说的迅速止痛的机转外，可能尚与增强人体的抵抗力有关。
2.一般来说，带状疱疹的预后良好，针灸可单独使用且效果很好，一般在1-3次针灸治疗后，即会有显著的改善。
3.由于带状疱疹病人会感觉很痛，故经验上须双侧同时针刺，且可数小时针刺1次，直到病情缓解为止。
4.治疗期间不宜食辛辣食品和鱼虾蟹等动风发物(即引起过敏的食品)。

缠腰龙又称为带状疱疹，带状疱疹是由水痘一带状疱疹病毒所致，疲乏、感冒、肿瘤、某些药物等均可是发病诱因。发病前患处多先有皮肤刺痛或灼热感，或伴有轻度发热、疲乏无力、食欲不振等全身症状。皮疹多发生在身体一侧，多见于腰胁部。初起皮肤红，出现群集的丘疹和水疱，周围伴有红晕，常沿神经分布呈“条带状”，自觉灼热和疼痛。疱群之间间隔正常皮肤，疱内容物初为透明，经3-5天可呈混浊，严重时可出现血疱或环死。若发生在眼部，还可引起结膜炎、溃疡性角膜炎等。本病的特点是局部显著疼痛，个别病人皮疹消退后仍顽固不退，病程2-3周，愈后极少复发。

带状疱疹病毒引起的同时累及皮肤和神经的皮肤病。其疱疹位于身体一侧，常见成簇小水泡沿着胸部肋间神经或面部三叉神经作带状分布，伴有发热、神经痛和局部性淋巴结肿大。病程约2周。年迈老人在皮肤疱疹消退后，常留有严重的神经痛症，有时疼痛可延续半年以上。

中医称本症为“缠腰火丹”，“蛇串疮”，认为是由于肝胆火盛或湿热内蕴，又感受外来毒邪而发病。

自疗注意事项

（1）本病采取中西医结合疗效果较好，西医主要是对症治疗，而中药攻克邪毒效果明显。
（2）保持皮肤、衣衫清洁，疱疹破碎后滋水较多，要及时清洗、替换。
（3）猪头、公鸡、鹅、象皮鱼、虾、蟹等食品，中医认为是发物，应该忌吃。
（4）饭菜宜素净清淡，不宜多吃煎、炸、姜、辣酒等热性食品。
（5）保持情绪安定，烦燥不安、肝炎上窜会诱发疼痛，加重病情。
（6）保持大便畅通，以利邪毒内热下泄。
（7）皮疹消退后，如疼痛仍旧继续，可不必紧张，时间一长，疼痛会自然消失。疼痛
影响睡眠时，可适量服一些止痛片。

自治疗法
1、成药自疗法
（1） 抗病毒药，如阿昔洛韦，每次1片，每日5次。
（2） 去痛片、安乃近、消炎痛、阿斯匹林之类止痛药任选一种服用。每次1粒，每日3次。
（3） 导赤散，每次3克，每日3次。
（4） 季德胜蛇药，每次5-10片，每日3次。
（5）七厘散，每次1.2克，每日3次（孕妇忌服）。

2、验方自疗法
（1）大青叶、蒲公英各15克、马齿苋60克、延胡素12克、每日1帖，分2次煎服。
（2）半边莲、天胡荽各60克、青黛5克（分两次冲服），每日1帖，分3次煎服。
（3）龙胆草、板兰根、当归各60克、玄胡50克、丹皮30克，共同研成细末，每次服3-6克，每日3次。
（4）独头大蒜2瓣，雄黄粉10克。将大蒜去皮后与雄黄同捣烂，外涂患处。缠腰火丹，是在皮肤上出现成簇水疱，痛如火燎，每多缠腰而发，故为此外，相当于现代医学的带状疱疹。
（5）生姜适量，将生姜捣汁于铜锅内熬浓，涂患处至觉热辣感为度，每日擦1-2次。本病也称为“蛇丹”。患过本病，一般不再复发。
（6）独头蒜适量，捣烂，敷于患处。带状泡疹已溃烂者不可用此方。无独头蒜用一般蒜头也可。

3、外治自疗法

（1）田七药物牙膏调醋外涂患处。
（2）仙人掌去刺捣烂，拌入少量糯米粉外敷患处，干则更换。
（3）等量生百合、白糖捣成糊外敷患处。
（4）无花果叶数片，洗净捣烂，加少量醋外敷患处。

（5）金黄散（成药）拌醋外敷患处，干则更换。

（6）氧化锌糊剂，搽患处。
