Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical technology, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating lower back pain and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Lower back pain, also known as "lumbosacral pain," is a condition characterized primarily by subjective pain in the lower back. In the definition of Traditional Chinese Medicine Internal Medicine, lower back pain refers to a condition caused by external pathogens, internal injuries, or sprains leading to poor blood and qi circulation in the lower back, resulting in constricted meridians or insufficient nourishment. This manifests primarily as pain on one or both sides of the lower back, or in the center of the lower back. It includes lower back pain due to kidney deficiency, lower back pain from falls or injuries, postpartum lower back pain, lumbar muscle strain, and lower back pain, swelling, soreness, numbness, difficulty in extension, lower back and leg pain, and muscle aches caused by wind, cold, dampness, heat, blood stasis, or qi stagnation. Currently, commonly used Western medicine treatments for lower back pain include: invasive therapies such as epidural injections and surgery, which have poor patient compliance; local injection therapy, which often causes adverse reactions to hormones, leading to changes in local muscles and bones; and drug therapy, such as acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, musculoskeletal relaxants, and benzodiazepines, which primarily focus on anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. While these drugs offer rapid relief, their effects are often short-lived, leading to strong drug dependence and serious liver and kidney damage, making them unsuitable for all patients. Although traditional Chinese medicine treats lower back pain, it primarily focuses on promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, relieving pain, or reducing inflammation and pain. Its therapeutic targets are limited, only providing short-term relief of surface symptoms, not addressing the root cause, and recurrence is common. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Therefore, based on the above background, the present invention provides a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating low back pain and its application, which is based on warming the kidney and strengthening yang, while also dispelling cold and dampness, and promoting blood circulation and unblocking collaterals. It can effectively treat low back pain with multiple causes, especially low back pain due to kidney yang deficiency combined with cold and dampness stagnation.

[0004] The technical solution provided by this invention is as follows:

[0005] A traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating lower back pain, comprising, by weight, the following raw materials:

[0007] Furthermore, by weight, it is composed of the following raw materials:

[0008] 30 parts of Panax notoginseng, 30 parts of dried ginger, 15 parts of Achyranthes bidentata, 20 parts of Poria cocos, 30 parts of Psoralea corylifolia, 15 parts of Scutellaria baicalensis, 30 parts of Arctium lappa, 20 parts of Salvia miltiorrhiza, 10 parts of scorpion, 80 parts of Rehmannia glutinosa, 20 parts of peach kernel, 10 parts of Asarum heterotropoides, 30 parts of Chaenomeles speciosa, 20 parts of Atractylodes macrocephala, 30 parts of Lycium barbarum, 12 parts of Gleditsia sinensis, 25 parts of Eucommia ulmoides, 15 parts of Acorus tatarinowii, 15 parts of Bombyx mori, 30 parts of Paeonia lactiflora, and safflower. 20 parts, Clematis chinensis 15 parts, Astragalus membranaceus 80 parts, Cynomorium songaricum 30 parts, Cuscuta chinensis 30 parts, Dipsacus asper 15 parts, Notopterygium incisum 20 parts, Peucedanum praeruptorum 20 parts, Pueraria lobata 80 parts, Plantago asiatica 20 parts, Aconitum carmichaelii 20 parts, Scutellaria baicalensis 15 parts, Cinnamomum cassia 20 parts, Morus alba 30 parts, Bupleurum chinense 24 parts, Sinapis alba 30 parts, Angelica pubescens 20 parts, Curcuma longa 15 parts, Citrus reticulata 20 parts, Epimedium brevicornu 15 parts.

[0009] Based on the same inventive concept, the present invention also provides the application of the aforementioned traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating low back pain in the preparation of drugs for treating low back pain.

[0010] Furthermore, the lower back pain described is a type of lower back pain caused by kidney yang deficiency combined with cold-dampness stagnation.

[0011] Furthermore, the drug is an oral dosage form.

[0012] Furthermore, the oral dosage forms include powders, granules, capsules, tablets, pills, and liquids.

[0013] Furthermore, the active ingredient of the drug is an extract or extract prepared from the traditional Chinese medicine composition.

[0014] Furthermore, the extract is obtained by extracting the traditional Chinese medicine composition with a solvent;

[0015] The extract is obtained by concentrating and drying the extract obtained by extracting the traditional Chinese medicine composition with a solvent.

[0016] Furthermore, the solvent is water, alcohol, or an aqueous solution of alcohol.

[0017] Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidneys are the foundation of innate essence. Kidney essence deficiency leads to malnourishment of the lower back, and insufficient vital energy makes it susceptible to external pathogens. These pathogens penetrate deeper, obstructing the flow of qi, and if left untreated, further damage kidney qi, creating a vicious cycle. Kidney deficiency is the root cause of lower back pain, with kidney yang deficiency as the primary cause, and cold-dampness stagnation, blood stasis, and phlegm obstructing the meridians as secondary symptoms. Therefore, the treatment of lower back pain should focus on warming the kidneys and strengthening yang, while also dispelling cold and dampness, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, resolving phlegm, and unblocking the meridians. This invention rationally formulates a prescription based on the etiology and pathogenesis of lower back pain. It uses Rehmannia glutinosa, Astragalus membranaceus, and Pueraria lobata as the principal herbs. Pueraria lobata relieves muscle tension, promotes fluid production, and alleviates muscle soreness caused by lack of moisture, while also dispelling cold and dampness to relieve external symptoms. Rehmannia glutinosa nourishes the kidneys and replenishes essence, supplementing the "innate essence." The formula nourishes the lower back and spine, using Astragalus to replenish Qi and raise Yang, assisting the warming power of kidney Yang. Qi and blood mutually generate each other; when Qi is abundant, blood flows smoothly, facilitating the dispersal of blood stasis. The formula uses Aconitum carmichaelii, dried ginger, cinnamon twig, Asarum, Panax notoginseng, safflower, peach kernel, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Achyranthes bidentata, Angelica pubescens, Clematis chinensis, papaya, mulberry twig, Psoralea corylifolia, Cuscuta chinensis, Notopterygium incisum, and Curcuma longa as assistant herbs to assist the principal herbs. Among these, Aconitum carmichaelii, dried ginger, cinnamon twig, Asarum, Notopterygium incisum, and Curcuma longa enhance the warming and dispersing power of the kidneys, while Aconitum carmichaelii assists Rehmannia glutinosa, providing both Yin and Yang tonification without causing dryness. Panax notoginseng, safflower, peach kernel, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Achyranthes bidentata break up blood stasis, with Achyranthes bidentata guiding the medicine downwards. Combined with kudzu root, the medicinal power is directed to the lower back, forming a "vertical" effect and enhancing the targeting of the lower back. Adjuvant herbs include soapberry, white mustard seed, scutellaria, burdock seed, white peony root, wolfberry, atractylodes macrocephala, poria cocos, tangerine peel, scorpion, silkworm, acorus tatarinowii, angelica dahurica, and plantain seed, which clear heat and resolve phlegm, prevent dryness, and strengthen the spleen. Soapberry, white mustard seed, and angelica dahurica are used together to resolve phlegm and dampness obstruction, dissipate phlegm and nodules; scorpion and silkworm are used together to dispel wind, unblock meridians, relieve spasms and pain; scutellaria, burdock seed, and plantain seed are used together to clear upper burner heat and prevent warming herbs from causing dryness; white peony root and wolfberry are used together to nourish yin and astringe the liver, preventing warming and dryness from damaging yin, and softening the liver. For generalized muscle tension, the formula combines Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, Citrus reticulata peel, and Acorus tatarinowii to strengthen the spleen and aid digestion, thus promoting drug absorption. Bupleurum chinense, Smilax china, Dipsacus asper, Eucommia ulmoides, Epimedium brevicornu, and Cynomorium songaricum are used as guiding herbs. Bupleurum chinense is used to soothe the liver and regulate qi, raising the qi mechanism to assist yang qi and promote circulation. Smilax china invigorates blood and unblocks collaterals, while Pueraria lobata helps to relieve muscle tension, break up blood stasis, and eliminate accumulations. Dipsacus asper, Eucommia ulmoides, Epimedium brevicornu, and Cynomorium songaricum are combined to tonify kidney yang and strengthen tendons and bones. The rational combination of these herbs works synergistically to effectively treat complex lower back pain (such as lumbar muscle strain, lumbar disc herniation, and osteoarthritis) caused by kidney yang deficiency and concurrent cold-dampness stagnation. It addresses both the symptoms and the root cause, reducing the likelihood of recurrence. Detailed Implementation

[0031] In this comparative example, Bupleurum was used to replace Pueraria lobata.

[0032] In practical application, the dosage of the traditional Chinese medicine composition in this comparative example is as follows:

[0033] 30g Panax notoginseng, 30g dried ginger, 15g Achyranthes bidentata, 20g Poria cocos, 30g Psoralea corylifolia, 15g Scutellaria baicalensis, 30g Arctium lappa, 20g Salvia miltiorrhiza, 10g scorpion, 80g Rehmannia glutinosa, 20g peach kernel, 10g Asarum heterotropoides, 30g Chaenomeles speciosa, 20g Atractylodes macrocephala, 30g Lycium barbarum, 12g Gleditsia sinensis, 25g Eucommia ulmoides, 15g Acorus tatarinowii, 15g Bombyx mori, 30g Paeonia lactiflora Safflower 20g, Clematis chinensis 15g, Astragalus membranaceus 80g, Cynomorium songaricum 30g, Cuscuta chinensis 30g, Dipsacus asper 15g, Notopterygium incisum 20g, Peucedanum praeruptorum 20g, Plantago asiatica 20g, Aconitum carmichaelii 20g, Scutellaria baicalensis 15g, Cinnamomum cassia twig 20g, Morus alba twig 30g, Bupleurum chinense 124g, Sinapis alba 30g, Angelica pubescens 20g, Curcuma longa 15g, Citrus reticulata 20g, Epimedium brevicornu 15g.

[0034] Clinical application data:

[0035] The retrospective analysis included patients diagnosed with kidney yang deficiency or cold-dampness stagnation causing lower back pain, divided into treatment group 1 (31 cases) and treatment group 2 (19 cases) based on different treatment regimens. Treatment group 1 consisted of 18 males and 13 females, aged 31-67 years, with a disease duration of 0.5-5 years. Treatment group 2 consisted of 11 males and 7 females, aged 28-64 years, with a disease duration of 3 months-5 years.

[0036] None of the patients had (1) infectious lumbar spine disease; (2) tumor or serious organic disease; or (3) allergy to the drug in Example 1.

[0037] The treatment group was treated with the decoction prepared from the traditional Chinese medicine composition of Example 1, three times a day, one dose per day.

[0038] The second treatment group was treated with a decoction prepared from a proportionate combination of traditional Chinese medicines, three times a day, one dose per day.

[0039] The effects after three weeks of continuous treatment were statistically analyzed, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0040] The visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess the pain level before and after treatment; the lower the score, the relatively milder the pain.

[0041] Lumbar spine function was assessed using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score: This scale covers four major categories: subjective symptoms, clinical signs, limitation of daily activities, and bladder function, with corresponding score ranges of 0-9, 0-6, 0-14, and -6-0. Higher scores indicate relatively better lumbar spine function.

[0042] Therapeutic effect assessment

[0043] Significant effect: VAS and JOA score reduction rates are both ≥50%;

[0044] Effective: VAS and JOA score reduction rates were both 15% ≤ to < 50%;

[0045] Invalid: VAS and JOA score deduction rates are all less than 15%.

[0046] Overall effectiveness rate = (significantly effective + effective) / total number of cases × 100%.

[0047] Table 1: Efficacy Statistics

[0048] Grouping Total number of cases Effective efficient invalid Effectiveness (%) Treatment group 31 19 11 1 96.8 Treatment Group 2 19 8 9 2 89.4

[0049] As can be seen from the above, when the principal herb, Pueraria lobata, is replaced with Bupleurum chinense, which has the same effect, its efficacy and significant efficacy are significantly reduced. This shows that replacing or removing Pueraria lobata obviously disrupts the balance of the principal, assistant, adjuvant, and guide herbs in the prescription, and significantly reduces the overall therapeutic effect.

[0050] Typical Case:

[0051] Case 1: Mr. You, male, 48 years old, visited the clinic on March 18, 2021. His chief complaint was: cold pain in the lower back, heaviness in the limbs, which was aggravated on rainy days, cold lower limbs, limited mobility, poor appetite, abdominal distension, and clear and copious urine. The above symptoms had lasted for more than a year.

[0052] Medical history: On February 4, 2020, the patient suddenly felt a heavy sensation in his lower back while working, followed by lower back pain. The pain was so severe the next morning that he was unable to move.

[0053] Tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis: The tongue coating is pale and greasy, and the pulse is deep and slow.

[0054] Based on pulse diagnosis and symptoms, the pathogenesis is mainly due to cold and dampness obstruction, meridian stagnation, coldness and constriction, cold and dampness remaining in the muscles and bones, obstructing qi and blood, external cold and internal cold seek each other out, aggravated by cold or rainy days, and coldness in the lower limbs.

[0055] The patient was treated with the traditional Chinese medicine composition of Example 1, which was taken as a decoction three times a day, one dose per day. After taking three doses, the symptoms were significantly relieved. After taking nine more doses, the symptoms disappeared. The patient continued to take ten more doses for consolidation. On May 20, 2022, the patient was followed up and there was no recurrence.

[0056] Case 2: Mr. Dong, male, 56 years old, visited the clinic on April 5, 2023. His chief complaint was: dull pain in the lower back, weakness and soreness in the lower back and knees, dizziness and tinnitus, and nocturia 3-5 times.

[0057] Medical history: In March 2021, the patient suddenly developed lower back pain. He had taken other medications in between, but the lower back pain persisted to this day. He also experienced weakness and soreness in his lower back and knees, dizziness, tinnitus, and frequent urination at night.

[0058] Based on pulse diagnosis and symptoms, the pathogenesis is determined to be malnourishment of the lower back, insufficient kidney yang, inability to nourish the lower back and kidneys, insufficient kidney essence causing lower back pain, weakness and soreness in the lower back and knees, kidney deficiency combined with blood stasis, pain due to lack of nourishment, prolonged illness leading to kidney essence deficiency causing dizziness and tinnitus, and frequent urination at night due to kidney malnourishment.

[0059] The patient was treated with the herbal composition from Example 1, and the decoction was taken orally three times a day, one dose per day. After taking six doses, the symptoms were relieved. After taking another six doses, the symptoms completely disappeared. The patient then continued to take the medicine for another ten doses to consolidate the treatment. The patient has not relapsed to date.

[0060] Case 3: Ms. Liu, 56 years old, visited the clinic on December 7, 2022. Her chief complaint was stabbing pain in her lower back, which was relieved after activity and was worse at night.

[0061] Medical history: On February 12, 2021, the patient suddenly experienced stabbing pain in the lower back while sleeping. After taking medication, the effect was not good, and the patient experienced limited mobility and persistent stabbing pain in the lower back.

[0062] Tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis: The tongue coating is dark purple, and there are petechiae when the tongue is pressed; the pulse is choppy.

[0063] Based on pulse diagnosis and symptoms, the pathogenesis is determined to be blood stasis, obstruction of qi and blood flow, and blockage of meridian qi. At night, yang qi is half-decayed, blood flow is weak, and stasis is more severe, hence the condition is milder during the day and more severe at night.

[0064] The traditional Chinese medicine composition of Example 1 was used for treatment. The decoction was taken orally three times a day, one dose per day. After taking it for 9 consecutive days, the symptoms were relieved. After taking it for 10 more days to consolidate the treatment, the symptoms disappeared and have not recurred to date.

[0065] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the embodiments shown are only one of the implementation methods of the present invention. The actual structure is not limited to this. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention, they should all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
