Summary

This study tests a dynamic pain management plan that combines Western medicine with traditional Chinese techniques like acupuncture and herbal baths for people recovering from perianal abscess surgery. The goal is to see if this approach reduces pain, lowers the need for strong painkillers, and improves recovery. The trial will enroll 135 patients and compare three different pain management strategies.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could establish a better, standardized pain management pathway that reduces pain and opioid use after perianal abscess surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study (135 participants) at a single center, so results may not apply broadly. The added benefit of traditional Chinese medicine components is uncertain.
