Has your knee really recovered after surgery? 🤔

Many people think that once the surgery is over, the hard part is done. But in reality, the most challenging phase is often the recovery afterward.

🔸 Knee stiffness
🔸 Limited range of motion
🔸 Difficulty walking naturally
🔸 Persistent or recurring pain

In this video, our patient had undergone surgery on the left knee, which required postoperative immobilization. Recovery was slow, with restricted knee movement and ongoing pain. After receiving postoperative rehabilitation combined with acupuncture treatment at HTCM, the patient felt that the pain was significantly reduced and his knee mobility was vastly improved.
💬 “It was really painful just now, but after the acupuncture, my leg immediately felt much looser.”

What’s even more remarkable is that this patient had previously undergone right knee meniscus repair surgery in September 2024, which required nearly six months of rehabilitation before returning to normal activities.

Following surgery on the left knee, the patient began acupuncture treatment at HTCM four weeks after the operation. With a structured rehabilitation program, the left knee had almost fully recovered by the 9th postoperative week.

The patient personally commented that the difference between the two recovery experiences was striking. Compared with the previous surgery, integrating Chinese medicine into postoperative care led to a much faster recovery and a noticeably better overall condition.

Recovery after surgery isn’t just about waiting for time to pass. Appropriate rehabilitation can help restore mobility more efficiently and support a smoother recovery.

If you or a loved one is recovering from knee surgery, feel free to contact HTCM clinic to learn more about our postoperative rehabilitation treatments.

膝盖开刀后，就真的恢复了吗？🤔

很多人以为手术成功就结束了，但真正难熬的，往往是术后恢复期：
🔸 膝盖关节僵硬
🔸 弯曲角度受限
🔸 走路不自然
🔸 疼痛反复出现

视频中这位患者左膝术后固定制动，恢复过程缓慢，膝关节活动受限，且伴有疼痛。经过欣中医针灸与术后康复调理后，疼痛减轻、活动度提升，连患者自己都明显感受到变化。

💬「刚刚还很痛，针一转之后，脚就松很多了。」

值得一提的是，患者曾于2024年9月接受右膝半月板撕裂修复手术，当时历经近半年的康复期才逐渐恢复正常活动。此次因左膝疼痛接受手术后，患者在术后第4周开始接受欣中医针灸治疗。经过系统调理，左膝在术后第9周已基本恢复。患者本人也感慨，两次手术后的康复历程对比明显，中医介入后恢复速度和整体状态均有显著提升，效果可谓天差地别。

术后恢复，不只是等时间过去。适当的康复介入，才能帮助身体更顺利地找回活动能力。

如果你或家人正在面对膝关节术后恢复问题，欢迎咨询欣中医了解更多。

Have you heard of using specialized acupuncture to treat abscesses? 🪡🩹

An abscess is a localized collection of pus that builds up within the tissue of the body. When many people hear the word “abscess,” their first reaction is usually antibiotics or surgical drainage. However, in Traditional Chinese Medicine, there is another approach that focuses more on holistic regulation and may support faster recovery — specialized acupuncture.

Here’s a real case shared by HTCM:
🔴 A patient developed a small lump under the left armpit at the end of last year. By 2 April 2026, the swelling had become noticeably larger and caused pain when raising the arm or making certain movements. Pus formation began on 5 April. When the patient came for consultation on 8 April, the affected area appeared bright red with obvious inflammation. Dr. Liu immediately recommended specialized acupuncture treatment.
🟢 After receiving two sessions of specialized acupuncture on 8 April and 15 April, the abscess improved significantly. By 23 April, it had basically healed, although a small raised bump (scar tissue) had formed naturally.
🟢 After one scar-release treatment on 23 April, a follow-up visit on 30 April showed that the skin had healed with almost no visible scarring. (Before-and-after photos attached.)

In Singapore, underarm abscesses are actually quite common. This is because the armpit is a skin-fold area, and hot and humid climate in Singapore encourages sweating and bacterial growth. Common symptoms of underarm abscesses include redness, swelling, pain, and localized pus formation. In severe cases, fever may also occur. People with weaker body constitutions may experience recurring episodes that are difficult to heal. In more serious situations, incision and drainage or even surgery may be required.

It’s not only underarm abscesses. Skin conditions such as eczema, boils, folliculitis, and pus-filled skin infections may also be considered for specialized acupuncture treatment when appropriate. 👉 For such conditions, approach Dr Liu for consultation.

你听说过用特色针灸治疗脓疡吗？🪡🩹

脓疡又称脓肿，是因细菌感染引起的组织、器官或体腔内局部化脓性炎症，内部积聚脓液并由脓肿膜包裹，表现为红、肿、热、痛的炎性肿块。很多人一听到“脓肿”，第一反应就是吃抗生素或手术切开。其实，在中医里，有一种恢复较快、且更注重整体调理的方法 —— 特色针灸。

我们分享一个欣中医真实案例：
🔴 一位患者从去年底开始，左侧腋下出现小疔结。到了 2026年4月2日，肿块明显变大，抬手或特定动作时会疼痛；4月5日开始化脓；4月8日来诊时发现疮面鲜红，炎症明显。刘医师马上建议患者进行特色针灸治疗。
🟢 患者分别在4月8日和4月15日接受两次的特色针灸治疗后，脓疡明显好转：到 4月23日，脓疡基本痊愈，但自行形成一个小突起（疤痕）。
🟢 经过4月23日进行一次解疤处理，4月30日复诊可见患处皮肤基本不留疤痕。（附治疗前后对比图）

在新加坡，腋下脓疡其实相当常见。这是因为腋下属于皮肤皱褶部位，而新加坡天气炎热潮湿，容易出汗，细菌也更容易滋生。腋下脓疡常见症状包括：红肿、疼痛、局部化脓，严重时甚至可能伴随发热。部分体质较弱的人，还可能反复发作、久治难愈；严重情况下，往往需要切开引流，甚至进行手术治疗。

不只是腋下脓疡，像湿疹、疔疮、毛囊炎、脓包等皮肤问题，在合适情况下，都可以考虑特色针灸治疗。👉 如遇此类症状，请向刘医生寻求专业意见。

Can alopecia areata recover? Exploring the possibility of “hair follicle regeneration” through whole-body regulation 👩🏻‍🦲👨🏻‍🦲

Many people think alopecia areata is just “hair loss,” but it’s often closely linked to the body’s overall condition.

Alopecia areata not only affects appearance but may also signal that the body is “out of balance”:
⚠️ Hair follicles suddenly enter the resting phase, causing patchy hair loss
⚠️ Closely related to stress and emotional state
⚠️ Often accompanied by poor sleep quality
⚠️ Prone to recurrence, and may expand or merge

👉 So the key to treatment isn’t just “growing hair,” but improving overall health and reducing triggers!

The advantage of TCM in treating alopecia areata lies in its focus not only on local symptoms but also on holistic regulation and individualized diagnosis.

Here are two real cases from HTCM:
[ 📑 Case 1: Mr. C ]
🔴 First visit: After a prolonged cough in late October, he noticed two patches of hair loss, one about 3×4 cm. He had received two steroid injections with unsatisfactory results. He also experienced poor sleep (frequent waking, difficulty falling asleep) and irregular bowel movements.
After TCM treatment:
🟢 Follow-up (9th session): The hair loss areas gradually recovered, about 90% regrowth in the larger patch and 60% in the smaller one. It was also observed that his sleep was significantly affected by coffee (suggesting sensitivity), and his bowel issues were improving.
[ 📑 Case 2: Ms. C ]
🔴 Before Treatment: Hair loss began due to work-related stress.
After targeted treatment:
🟢 After Treatment: The affected areas were almost fully recovered. Follow-ups over several years showed no recurrence.
➡️ TCM treatment not only promotes hair regrowth but also helps identify and adjust lifestyle habits (such as coffee intake and daily routines), reducing triggers for recurrence.

Alopecia areata is not just a “hair problem”. It’s a signal from the body. With proper evaluation and treatment, combined with lifestyle adjustments and individualized care, the chances of overall recovery can be improved. 🌱

斑秃有机会恢复吗？从整体调理谈“毛囊再生”的可能性👩🏻‍🦲👨🏻‍🦲很多人以为斑秃只是“掉头发”，但其实它往往和身体整体状态密切相关，尤其是压力、睡眠、消化等。斑秃在医学上称为 Alopecia areata（斑秃），属于一种与免疫相关的脱发...

斑秃有机会恢复吗？从整体调理谈“毛囊再生”的可能性👩🏻‍🦲👨🏻‍🦲

很多人以为斑秃只是“掉头发”，但其实它往往和身体整体状态密切相关，尤其是压力、睡眠、消化等。斑秃在医学上称为 Alopecia areata（斑秃），属于一种与免疫相关的脱发类型。毛囊通常并没有消失，而是暂时进入“休止状态”，因此存在再生的可能。

其实，斑秃不仅影响外观，也可能提示身体在“失衡”：
⚠️ 毛囊突然进入休止期，局部成片脱发
⚠️ 与压力、情绪密切相关
⚠️ 常伴随失眠质量下降
⚠️ 容易反复发作，甚至扩大或融合

👉 所以治疗关键不只是“长头发”，而是改善整体状态，减少诱因！

而中医治疗斑秃的优势，正是在于不仅针对局部，更重视整体调节、个体化辨证。

以下是欣中医两个真实病例分享：
【📑 案例 1：C先生 】
🔴 初诊：10月下旬久咳，随后发现两处斑秃，其中一处约 3×4 cm。期间接受两次类固醇注射，但效果均不理想。同时伴随睡眠不佳（易醒、难入睡），排便时间不规律等问题。
经过中医调理后：
🟢（第9次治疗）复诊：脱发区域逐渐恢复，大斑秃恢复约 90%、小斑秃恢复约 60%。同时观察到患者睡眠受咖啡影响明显（提示体质敏感），排便问题也正在改善。
【📑 案例 2：C女士 】
🔴 治疗前：因工作压力开始脱发。
进行针对性调理后：
🟢 治疗后：脱发区域基本痊愈。随访几年均无复发。
➡️ 中医治疗不仅促进生发，也帮助发现并调整生活习惯（如咖啡、作息），减少复发诱因。

斑秃不是单纯“头发问题”，而是身体在发出信号。在规范评估与治疗基础上，结合生活调整与个体化调理，有助于提升整体恢复的机会。🌱

“Spinning world” — understanding a case of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). 😵🫨🌀

Ms. R began experiencing vertigo about 6–7 weeks ago without any obvious trigger and was later diagnosed with BPPV. During that period, she sought treatment from multiple traditional Chinese medicine and Western medical clinics. While there was occasional relief, the symptoms would often return within a few days.

At its worst, she described the sensation as “being on a rocking boat,” accompanied by nausea and vomiting. She required assistance with walking, and even simple daily activities became difficult.

What troubled her further was that once the vertigo episodes started, she was unable to lie flat comfortably. This led to lower back soreness and frequent awakenings throughout the night. Over time, poor sleep compounded her fatigue, while persistent neck and shoulder tension further drained her energy. The fear of another vertigo episode also made her increasingly anxious, creating a cycle where stress appeared to aggravate her symptoms.

In this condition, she visited HTCM on April 4, 2026. Following treatment with Liu’s acupuncture method, she returned for follow-up on April 18, 2026. After three sessions, she reported approximately 80% overall improvement. Her vertigo episodes had reduced significantly, her appetite improved, and she was sleeping more comfortably with fewer nighttime awakenings. She also felt steadier physically and more relaxed overall.

This case highlights an important aspect of Liu’s acupuncture approach: rather than focusing solely on the symptom of dizziness, treatment aims to support the body’s overall regulation and recovery. As symptoms improve, patients may also notice better sleep, digestion, and emotional well-being as part of the broader recovery process. 📈💫

For patients struggling with recurrent or persistent vertigo, identifying an approach that addresses both symptoms and overall functional recovery may be an important part of long-term improvement.

“天旋地转”别慌张！带你看看一则耳石症病例。😵🫨🌀

R小姐在6-7周前无明显诱因开始出现眩晕，后确诊为耳石症。期间尝试过多家中西医诊所的多种治疗方式，包括放血、针灸等，虽然偶有缓解，但往往只能维持几天，之后又反复发作。严重时不仅头晕如在船上，还伴随呕吐，走路需要他人搀扶，连基本的生活都受到影响。

更困扰的是，眩晕一旦发作就无法平躺，导致腰酸背痛，夜里更因此频繁醒来，长期睡眠不足。早上醒来依然头晕明显；再加上长期的颈肩僵硬，让整体状态越来越差。因为害怕再次发作，情绪也变得紧张焦虑，整个人陷入一种“越怕越晕”的恶性循环。

在这样的情况下，她在2026-4-4来到了欣中医。

经过刘氏针法系统调理，仅3次治疗后2026-4-18复诊，她自觉整体状态已改善约80%。不只是眩晕明显减轻，连食欲恢复了，睡眠也明显改善，夜醒减少。整个人从最初的虚弱不稳，转为轻松踏实，状态大幅回升。

这个案例再次体现了刘氏针法的独到之处：并非只针对“头晕”这一局部症状，而是通过整体气机的调动，从根本上改善身体失衡的状态。往往一经施治，不仅眩晕减轻，连睡眠、消化、情绪等都会同步提升，呈现出整体性的恢复效果。📈💫

对于这种反复发作、久治不愈的眩晕问题，关键往往不在“多做几种治疗”，而在于是否找到真正能带动整体改变的方法。刘氏针法，正是这样一种能够打破反复、实现跨越式改善的手段。

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。
