---|---|
Active Comparator: group A
different body acupuncture points will be selected to be manually punctured in addition to 4 acupoints on the skin of abdominal surface (the four points will be electrical stimulated during acupuncture). the session (20 minutes) will repeated thrice weekly. the total duration of the study will be 60 days. The points that will be manually acupunctured all over the body of every patient will be: SJ(3)/SJ(5)/SJ(17)/SJ(18)/SJ(19)/SJ(20)/SJ(21)/SJ(22)/GB(2)/GB(8)/GB(20)/LI(4)/LI(11)/KI(3)/SP(6)/ST(36)/REN(4)/REN(9)/REN(12) The acupuncture points that will be electrically stimulated on the abdomen of every patient will be: bilateral Stomach 25 in addition to gallbladder 28 acupoints. |

Sham Comparator: Group B
different body acupuncture points will be selected to be manually punctured in addition to 4 acupoints on the skin of abdominal surface (the four points will be electrical stimulated during acupuncture).
opposite to group A, in this group, the acupuncture needles will be inserted manually and very adjacent to the real location of group-A acupoints (sham acupuncture).
The electrical stimulator will connected to abdominal acupoints (bilateral Stomach 25 in addition to gallbladder 28 acupoints) but it will be turned off during the sessions.
the session will repeated thrice weekly.
the total duration of the study will be 60 days.
