Abstract Objective: To explore the clinical effect of press needle in the treatment of post-stroke superficial facial sensory disorder. Method: A total of 100 patients with post-stroke superficial facial sensory disorder in the inpatient department of Wuxi Central Rehabilitation Hospital from August 2019 to August 2022 were selected and randomly divided into a press needle group (n=50) and a control group (n=50). Both groups were given routine drug treatment, rehabilitation treatment and acupuncture treatment. The press needle group used press needle therapy for facial acupoints, and the control group used ordinary acupuncture therapy for facial acupoints. Clinical efficacy was evaluated after the treatment, and numbness visual analogue scale (VAS) and sensory function rating scale were evaluated before the treatment and at the end of the first and second courses of treatment. Result: The curative effect of press needle group was better than that of control group (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, after the first and second course of treatment, the VAS of numbness in the two groups were decreased to different degrees, and after the second course of treatment, the press needle group was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, after the first and second course of treatment, the pain, temperature and tactile scores of the two groups were improved to different degrees, and after the second course of treatment, the press needle group were better than those of the control group in pain and tactile scores (P<0.05). Conclusion: The therapeutic effect of press needle is better to that of common acupuncture in the treatment of post-stroke superficial facial sensory disorder, in that it can alleviate the numbness symptoms, and improve the pain sensation and tactile sensation.
