Abstract Objective: To explore the application effect of acupuncture combined with suspension training in rehabilitation of patients with lumbar disc herniation. Method: A total of 80 patients with lumbar disc herniation who were treated in the First People's Hospital of Ji’an from October 2020 to October 2022 were selected and divided into study group and control group according to random number method, with 40 patients in each group. The control group was treated with western medicine and suspension training, on the basis of which the study group was treated with acupuncture. The treatment time of both groups was 4 weeks. The rehabilitation effect of the two groups were evaluated, and the symptoms scores, lumbar function, pain degree and serum inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] levels before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. Result: The total effective rate of the study group (92.50%) was higher than that of the control group (72.50%) (P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of numbness, pain and lumbar functional limitation in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the pain score of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group, and the lumbar function score of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Suspension training combined with acupuncture is an effective method in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, which can improve clinical symptoms, relieve haunch pain, enhance lumbar function and reduce inflammatory reaction.
