Objectives] To observe the clinical efficacy of warm needling acupuncture of Mongolian medicine in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH). [Methods] 120 patients with lumbar disc herniation hospitalized in Inner Mongolia International Mongolian Hospital from June 2019 to June 2022 were randomly divided into observation group (n = 60) and control group (n=60). The observation group was treated with warm needling acupuncture of Mongolian medicine, and the control group was treated with common acupuncture of Mongolian medicine, with two weeks as a course of treatment. The pain visual analogue scale (VAS) and Japanese orthopaedic association (JOA) score were observed before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated by the changes of clinical symptoms and signs of Mongolian medicine. [Results] The cure rate of the observation group was 71.7%, which was better than that of the control group (53.3%). The difference in the cure rate between the two groups was statistically significant, X2 -4.302, P -0.038. The total markedly effective rate (cured + markedly effective) of the observation group was 90. 0%, while that of the control group was 83. 3%. There was no significant difference in the total markedly effective rate between the two groups, X2 = 1.154, P= 0.283. The total effective rate (cured + markedly effective + effective) of the observation group was 100%, while that of the control group was 95.0%. There was no significant difference in the total effective rate between the two groups, and the continuous corrected chi-square value was 1.368 and 0.242. After treatment, the degree of low back pain, lower limb pain and dyskinesia were significantly improved in the two groups, the observation group was better than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05). [Conclusions] The warm needling acupuncture of Mongolian medicine was effective in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, which is worth popularizing.
