A lump on your wrist? Doesn’t necessarily mean you need surgery!

Case Sharing
First visit (Jan 10): A 37-year-old male patient had developed a “ganglion cyst” on his left wrist for 4–5 months. It appeared swollen and felt relatively firm when pressed. Western medicine recommended surgical treatment.

Later, upon a colleague’s recommendation, he visited HTCM and tried one session of Liu-style acupuncture therapy.
👉 Follow-up visit (Mar 25): He reported that the cyst had noticeably shrunk. Most importantly, the need for surgery was ruled out!

In Western medicine, common treatments for ganglion cysts include observation or surgical removal. However, these small lumps on the wrist don’t always require surgery. Surgical treatment carries risks such as recurrence, postoperative scarring, and potential impact on joint mobility.

What many people don’t realize is that acupuncture can offer a simple and effective approach to treating ganglion cysts, and are widely used in clinical practice. Liu-style acupuncture works through targeted intervention, by promoting circulation, unblocking meridians, and accelerating the absorption of accumulated fluid. Compared to surgery, it is relatively gentle and involves a faster recovery period. It helps you avoid surgical trauma, reduce the risk of scarring, and achieve better cosmetic outcomes. At the same time, it aims to improve overall body condition and reduce the likelihood of recurrence.

Although ganglion cysts are common benign conditions, if they continue to grow or affect appearance and function, it’s advisable to seek proper treatment early for better recovery outcomes.

手腕鼓个包,不一定要开刀!

《腱鞘囊肿》案例分享
初诊(1月10日):一位37岁男患者,左手腕长了个“腱鞘囊肿”,已经有4-5个月了。平时看着鼓鼓的,用手按之较硬。西医建议手术治疗。
后来经同事介绍到欣中医,尝试了刘氏针法做了一次调理。
👉 复诊(3月25日)时,他说:囊肿已经明显缩小。最重要的是,已经排除手术需要!

西医常见的腱鞘囊肿的治疗方法包括随访观察以及外科手术。其实,这种手腕上鼓起来的小包(腱鞘囊肿),不一定非要手术。手术治疗,不仅存在术后复发的风险,还有手术后局部疤痕形成、关节活动受影响等等缺陷。

很多人不知道:利用中医药针灸治疗腱鞘囊肿简便、高效,在临床应用相当广泛。刘氏针法通过针对性干预,通过疏通经络,促进局部循环、加速积液吸收。比起西医手术,刘氏针法操作相对温和,恢复周期较快。让您无需开刀,避免手术创伤,减少疤痕风险,也更美观。同时,刘氏针法帮助调整体质,降低复发倾向。

腱鞘囊肿虽是常见的良性疾病,但若持续增大或影响外观与功能,建议尽早规范处理,以获得更理想的恢复效果。

(Shoulder) 2:Chronic Shoulder Pain

Following previous post on frozen shoulder, today we’d like to share a typical case of another type of shoulder pain to give you a more intuitive understanding of how this stubborn condition can improve.

A 70-year-old lady had been suffering from shoulder pain for 7–8 years. It started as pain in her upper arm, but gradually spread to the entire shoulder. Recently, her condition worsened significantly. She couldn’t lift a pot, had to use her other hand to help while cooking, and even getting dressed became difficult. It greatly affected her daily life, and she often felt low in spirits. Over the years, she tried many treatments, including acupuncture and needle-knife therapy, but none brought satisfactory results. The pain kept coming back.

Recently, she was referred to Dr. Liu by a friend. After just one session using Liu’s acupuncture method, the improvement was obvious. Her shoulder felt much lighter, and her movement became smoother. What surprised her even more was that not only did her shoulder improve, but her legs, which used to feel heavy, also became lighter. She instantly felt more energetic and broke into a big smile 😊

This once again demonstrates the immediate effect of Liu’s acupuncture method. By activating the body’s overall energy flow, it often brings not just local relief, but an improvement in the whole body.

《痛症治疗》(肩部)2:顽固性肩痛

续上一篇为大家介绍肩周炎后,今天再分享一则肩痛典型病例,带大家更直观地了解这一顽固性问题的改善过程。

一位70岁的阿姨,肩膀疼已经有七八年了,一开始只是手臂痛,后来慢慢发展成整个肩膀都不舒服。最近情况越来越严重,连提个锅、炒个菜都要用另一只手帮忙,穿衣服也变得很困难,生活受到很大影响,人也变得郁郁寡欢。这些年她也试过不少办法,比如针灸、小针刀等等,但效果都不太理想,疼痛还是反反复复。

最近,她在朋友推荐下找到了刘医师。没想到一次刘氏针法治疗后,效果就很明显 —— 肩膀轻松了不少,活动也顺了很多。更让她惊喜的是,不只是肩膀改善了,连原本感觉沉重的腿脚也轻快了,人一下子精神了很多,当场就笑开了😊

这也再次见证了刘氏针法的立竿见影,通过带动全身气机的变化,往往不只是局部改善,而是整体状态一起提升。

(Shoulder) 1:Frozen shoulder

Meet the solution for “Periarthritis of the Shoulder”. Stop enduring the pain in silence! 💁🏻‍♀️

Adhesive capsulitis (also known as frozen shoulder or “fifty shoulder”) results from inflammation and fibrosis of the shoulder joint capsule. It commonly affects middle-aged adults and presents with shoulder pain, restricted range of motion, and often worsening nocturnal pain that disrupts sleep.

Among the various treatment options, acupuncture plays a crucial role in relieving pain and improving shoulder mobility.

Compared with Tuina therapies that forcibly break adhesions, often causing significant pain and making treatment hard to continue — acupuncture helps accelerate the absorption of local inflammation and activate the body’s natural healing mechanisms. With minimal discomfort, it can significantly speed up the recovery process of frozen shoulder.

[Acupuncture Treatment Case: Adhesive Capsulitis]
🎄 On Christmas Day last year, a female patient visited HTCM upon her family’s recommendation.
She reported a history of adhesive capsulitis lasting over one year, with marked limitation of shoulder joint mobility and worsening nocturnal pain, which severely affected her sleep. During this period, she had undergone multiple treatments in other clinics, including therapeutic massage, acupuncture, and herbal medicine, but with unsatisfactory results. In addition, she had long been troubled by chronic dryness and discomfort of both hands.

After the first acupuncture session at HTCM, shoulder discomfort was markedly reduced. At follow-up on January 6, 2026, she reported:
🔸Significant reduction in shoulder pain, with only occasional radiation to the anterior chest
🔸Residual stiffness of the left fingers with nocturnal numbness of the left index and little fingers
🔸Improvement in bilateral palmar dryness

After the second session, there was an immediate increase in shoulder range of motion with further pain reduction.

If you or your family are affected by adhesive capsulitis, acupuncture may be worth considering.

《痛症治疗》(肩部)1:肩周炎

认识「肩周炎」的救星,别再默默忍痛了! 💁🏻‍♀️

肩周炎,又称“五十肩”、“冰冻肩”,是由于肩关节囊发炎、粘连所引起,常见于中年族群。典型症状包括肩部疼痛、活动受限,严重时连抬手、穿衣、梳头都变得困难,夜间疼痛更影响睡眠质量。

在众多治疗方式中,针灸在缓解疼痛、改善肩关节活动度方面尤为关键。

相比一些推拿治疗中强行拨开粘连,治疗过程疼痛难忍、难以长期坚持,刘氏针法能够通过促进局部炎症吸收、激发机体自身修复能力,在痛苦较小的情况下,加快肩周炎的康复进程,让治疗过程更温和、更可持续。

【针灸治疗五十肩案例分享】
🎄 去年圣诞节当天,一位女士在家人的推荐下,来到欣中医就诊。
患者自述已被五十肩困扰一年多,肩关节活动明显受限,夜间疼痛加重,严重影响睡眠。期间曾多次接受其他家诊所的中医推拿、针灸及中药治疗,但改善始终不理想。此外,她还长期受双手干燥不适所困扰。
第一次在欣中医尝试刘氏针法治疗后,患者就感觉到肩部不适明显减轻。2026 年 1 月 6 日复诊时她反馈:
🔸肩部疼痛大幅度缓解,疼痛仅偶尔牵扯至胸前
🔸仅剩左手手指僵硬,夜间左手食指与小指出现麻木
🔸双手掌干燥情况较前已有改善
第二次刘氏针法治疗后:👉 当下即可感觉手臂抬举角度明显增加、疼痛减少,肩关节活动度显著改善。

如果你或家人正被五十肩困扰,不妨来到欣中医试试刘氏针法。

Have you ever experienced this?
👉 A “click” when bending or straightening a finger
👉 Morning stiffness with locking in a bent position
👉 Pain when forcing the finger straight

This condition is commonly known as Trigger Finger (Locking Finger) — medically called stenosing tenosynovitis of the flexor tendon.

When the tendon becomes inflamed and thickened, it can no longer glide smoothly through its sheath, causing catching, pain, and locking.

Common Contributing Factors
🔸 Frequent phone & computer use
🔸 Repetitive gripping or housework
🔸 Manual labor
🔸 Cold exposure or cold-prone constitution
🔸 More common in women and middle-aged adults

🌿 Acupuncture – A Gentle & Effective Early Treatment
Many people worry when they hear “tenosynovitis,” thinking steroid injections or surgery are the only options.
In fact, early to mid-stage trigger finger responds extremely well to acupuncture.

⭐ Advantages of Liu’s Acupuncture Technique
✔ Gentle & low discomfort
✔ Fast relief of pain and locking
✔ Improves tendon-sheath mobility
✔ Reduces recurrence risk
✔ Avoids injections and surgery

By unblocking meridians, improving circulation, and releasing local adhesions, finger movement becomes smooth and natural again.

🧾 Clinical Course (Mr. A)
📅 2025-11-25
• Right middle finger snapping for over 30 years, worsened in the past 2 months.
• Severe triggering of right middle finger
• Swelling sensation
• Painful bending and straightening
📅 After 1 treatment – 2025-12-25
• Triggering disappeared
• Only mild swelling sensation when using computer extensively for work

📣 Early treatment = faster recovery & better long-term outcome
If you or your family members are experiencing finger locking, don’t wait until it worsens.

✨ Acupuncture can help restore movement naturally and comfortably.

案例分享|弹响指

你有没有过这种情况:
👉 手指一弯一伸就“咔”一下
👉 早上起床手指僵硬、卡住,活动不开
👉 用力掰开还会疼

这很可能就是大家常说的弹响指,也叫扳机手指、卡手指。
医学上称为:手指屈肌腱收缩性腱鞘炎。

常见诱因包括:
🔸长时间用手机、电脑、做家务
🔸手工劳动、反复抓握
🔸受凉、体质偏寒
🔸中老年人或女性更常见

很多人一听“腱鞘炎”就担心要打封闭、甚至手术。其实在早中期,针灸调理是非常好的选择。

刘氏针法的优势
✔ 痛苦小。不像很多人想象中那么疼。
✔ 见效快。改善弹响、疼痛和活动受限。
✔ 能断根。从筋腱与腱鞘失衡入手,减少反复。
✔ 不需要西医手术。避免切开、恢复期长的问题。

👇 看看刘氏针法如何帮助A先生通过疏通局部经络、松解筋腱粘连,让手指活动重新变得顺畅、有力、不再卡顿。

病程记录:
2025-11-25:右手中指出现弹响30余年,加重2个月。现右手中指出现明显弹响,有肿胀感,屈伸活动受限,并伴有疼痛。
一次治疗后(2025-12-25):右手中指弹响消失,无卡压。工作用电脑多则右中指略肿胀感。

📌 如果你或家人正被弹响指困扰,越早干预,越容易恢复,也越不容易反复。

13/02/2026

After tumor-removal surgery, recovery is not only about renewed hope — it often comes with persistent postoperative discomfort:
⚠️ Stiff or uneven scars
⚠️ Pulling pain and restricted movement
⚠️ Local tightness affecting sleep and daily quality of life

Did you know? Scars are not only a “local” problem.

Abdominal surgical scars, in particular, can transmit tension through the fascia and meridian pathways. This may contribute to:
- Leg soreness and fatigue
- Digestive discomfort such as bloating or indigestion
- Ongoing tightness and postural imbalance

That is why scar treatment is about more than appearance.

With individualized Liu-style acupuncture tailored to each scar’s type and condition, scars can gradually change from “hard, painful, and tight” to “soft, smooth, and comfortable”, while helping to relieve whole-body symptoms related to scar tension.

📷 Clinical case at HTCM
After 4 acupuncture sessions, the patient experienced:
✅ Scar softened and flattened
✅ Pulling pain reduced by 80%
✅ Leg soreness and local tightness relieved
✅ Constipation and sleep difficulties improved
✅ Overall comfort and quality of life significantly enhanced

Liu-style acupuncture does not only “treat the scar.”

By working through the meridians and regulating overall function, it helps prevent scars from becoming a long-term burden on the body.

Postoperative recovery can be easier — and better.

肿瘤切除手术后,带来的不仅是生命的新希望,也可能伴随一系列术后不适:⚠️ 瘢痕僵硬、凹凸不平⚠️ 牵拉疼痛、活动受限⚠️ 局部紧绷,影响睡眠与生活质量你知道吗?瘢痕并不是“局部问题”。尤其是腹部瘢痕,可能通过筋膜与经络的牵拉,引发或加重下肢...

肿瘤切除手术后,带来的不仅是生命的新希望,也可能伴随一系列术后不适:
⚠️ 瘢痕僵硬、凹凸不平
⚠️ 牵拉疼痛、活动受限
⚠️ 局部紧绷,影响睡眠与生活质量

你知道吗?瘢痕并不是“局部问题”。

尤其是腹部瘢痕,可能通过筋膜与经络的牵拉,引发或加重下肢酸痛、乏力,甚至影响脾胃运化,出现腹胀、消化不良等内科问题。

因此,解疤的意义,远不止改善外观。

通过针对术后瘢痕体质与局部状态的系统调理,针灸可以帮助瘢痕由“硬、痛、紧”,逐步转变为“软、平、舒”,同时改善因瘢痕牵拉所引发的全身不适。

📷 附图中的患者在欣中医接受 4 次针灸治疗后,出现明显改善:
✅ 术后瘢痕逐渐软化、平整
✅ 牵拉疼痛改善约70–80%
✅ 下肢酸痛与局部紧绷感同步缓解
✅ 便秘及入睡难等问题较前改善
✅ 整体舒适度与生活质量显著提升

刘氏针法,不是只“看疤”,而是从经络与整体功能入手,让瘢痕不再成为身体的负担。

术后恢复,也可以更轻松、更有质量。

[Case Sharing] Acupuncture: A Powerful Tool for Fracture Healing 🦴✨

*First Visit | 2025-12-10
The patient injured the left little finger on December 6 during sports.
X-ray imaging showed a comminuted fracture of the left little finger, with obvious local swelling and bruising. The joint was unable to flex or extend, and any movement caused pain.
👉 Western medical advice: surgery.

The patient wished to avoid surgery and therefore chose a conservative treatment plan focused primarily on acupuncture, receiving a total of 3 acupuncture sessions.

*Follow-up | 2026-01-03 (Week 4 post-injury)
📣 Patient feedback: On December 22, formally ruled out the need for surgery!
Finger function improved significantly with good mobility and daily use. Only mild swelling and occasional slight pain remained.

Key Takeaways of acupuncture in orthopaedic and trauma care:
✅ Activates local circulation of qi and blood, promotes callus formation, and accelerates the healing process
✅ Significantly reduces swelling and pain, restores joint mobility, and supports functional recovery
✅ For appropriate types of fractures, effectively reduces the likelihood of surgical intervention

Acupuncture is more than pain relief.
During fracture recovery, it plays an important role in promoting healing and functional reconstruction, while also offering more options for patients who wish to avoid surgery.
