Methods 80 patients meeting the diagnostic, inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected and randomly divided into treatment group and control group according to the enrollment order. The treatment group was treated with Fuyuan Huoxue Decoction combined with percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy, and the control group was treated only with percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy. The VAS score, ODI score, JOA score and plantar infrared thermal imaging temperature difference of patients before treatment, 1 day after surgery, 2 weeks, 1 month and 3 months after surgery were recorded and statistically analyzed. Results There was no statistical difference in VAS score of lumbar and leg pain between the two groups before surgery, 1 day after surgery and 2 weeks after surgery (P>0.05). VAS scores of lumbar and leg pain in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group 1 month and 3 months after surgery, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).
