Clinical Research on the Treatment of Extremity Fractures with Bushen Jiegu Decoction

Objective: To study the therapeutic effect of Bushen Jiegu Decoction on patients with limb fractures. Methods: 59 patients with limb fractures were selected for this study from May 2021 to December 2022. They were divided into two groups by the random number table method. The research group received conventional treatment + Bushen Jiegu Decoction, while the control group received conventional treatment. The therapeutic effect, rehabilitation indicators, inflammatory factors, and callus growth of the two groups were compared. Results: The therapeutic effect of the treatment received in the research group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05); the visual analogue scale (VAS), tenderness score, and swelling of the research group were lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05); the interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and other inflammatory indicators were lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05); the callus volume score and density score in the study group were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Treating patients with limb fractures with Bushen Jiegu Decoction can reduce swelling, relieve pain, inhibit inflammation, and stimulate the growth of callus, which makes it a highly effective and feasible treatment method.
