Objective: To discuss and analyze the clinical effect of auricular point sticking in lung cancer chemotherapy. Methods: Sixty-two patients with lung cancer treated with chemotherapy in Suqian Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Jiangxi Province were selected for case evaluation and analysis. The time span of the research was from June 2020 to June 2021. The patients were divided into two groups: a study group (n = 31) and a control group (n = 31) based on their medical record numbers. All the patients were treated with conventional western medicine before and after chemotherapy to prevent adverse reactions; however, the patients in the study group were also treated with auricular point sticking in addition to the former. The relevant indexes of the two groups were compared. Results: The incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower in the study group compared to the control group (P < 0.05); the rate of symptomatic relief of the patients in the study group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05); the stress response indexes toward chemotherapy of the study group were better than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Auricular point sticking for patients with lung cancer who are receiving chemotherapy can reduce the incidence of adverse reactions, alleviate clinical symptoms, such as chest distress, asthma, and poor appetite, significantly alleviate stress response caused by chemotherapy, as well as promote the treatment effect; thus, it is worthy of promotion.
