EL EFECTO DE LA MEDICINA CHINA EN LA FATIGA MUSCULAR DE ATLETAS

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Traditional Chinese medicine has a very good effect on the treatment of exercise fatigue. However, if it is not handled actively and effectively, it can cause serious adverse effects on the body and lead to many diseases.

Objective:

To study the effect of TCM diagnosis and treatment on athletes’ exercise-induced muscle fatigue.

Methods:

The results of the study were analyzed by comparing the experimental data in the experimental group and the control group.

Results:

A paired t test was conducted on the experimental results of the experimental intervention group and the data of the control group. It was found that regardless of individuals being male or female, the paired t test results of the experimental group and the data of the control group were all P < 0.05, showing significant differences in the paired data.

Conclusions:

In the experiment, all the treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine had an obvious effect in the treatment of exercise fatigue, and reduced the recovery time of exercise fatigue at different degrees. Contrastive analysis shows that traditional Chinese medicine is effective in the treatment of exercise fatigue. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.
