HE Jingjing1, HUA Weizhong2, GAO Lu2, ZHENG Chengqiang1*
Sciatic nerve injury is a chronic painful disease characterized by damage to the trauma of sciatic nerve stem or nerve branch. The sciatic nerve injury may be affected by multiple factors such as individual physiological structure differences, bad living habits and accidents. As a combination of traditional Chinese medicine and modern medicine, electroacupuncture is widely used in the treatment of sciatic nerve injury, but nowadays the specific regulation mechanism is not completely clear. Therefore, this study reviewed the related research on electroacupuncture in the treatment of sciatic nerve injury and electroacupuncture in the treatment of posterior sciatic nerve muscle atrophy in recent years, and summarized the mechanism of electroacupuncture in sciatic nerve injury, which might provide reference and basis for the research of sciatic nerve injury treatment and pathogenesis.
