Methods:By following the teacher's professor Shao Mingxi, he should learn to pierce "Four Points", collect their test cases for the diagnosis and treatment of knee osteoarthritis, and summarize their diagnosis and treatment experience and clinical characteristics. Results: The method of Professor Shao Ming-Xi's "Bin Si Xue" connected with four fingers push in treatment of knee osteoarthritis is notably effective. Conclusions: Professor Shao Mingxi's unique experience in treating knee osteoarthritis with acupuncture needles at "Four Points" The effect is remarkable, and the preliminary summary is summarized to inherit the experience of famous old Chinese medicine.展开更多
