To explore the rule of acupoint selection in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation with needle warming moxibustion.Methods:The papers on the treatment of lumbar disc herniation with needle warming moxibustion from the establishment of the database to April 1，2022 in the databases of China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)，China Science Periodical Database(CSPD) and Chinese Citation Database(CCD) were retrieved.The data were collated with EXCEL2019 and the database was established.The association rules were analyzed with IBM SPSS MODELER 18.0 software，and the co-occurrence matrix of high-frequency acupoints was constructed with R language.Origin 2021 software was used to make chord diagram for visual analysis of high-frequency acupoints，which was entered into SPSS 26.0 software for cluster analysis.Results:In the study，304 acupuncture prescriptions，75 acupoints，23 high-frequency acupoints were obtained，including Weizhong，Shenshu，Jiaji，Huantiao，and so on.Foot Shaoyang and Taiyang meridians are the most commonly used meridians.The specific acupoints are Wushu and Beishu，and most of them are selected from the waist，back and lower limbs.Through association analysis，16 strong association rules，such asWeizhong-Huantiao，Weizhong-Jiaji-Huantiao，Huantiao-Yanglingquan，were identified.Cluster analysis divided high-frequency acupoints into 4 categories.Conclusion:The acupoint selection of needle warming moxibustion in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation is based on the kidney，most of which are Foot Taiyang and Shaoyang meridians.Combined with the local acupoint selection and treatment of the symptoms，it provides the basis for the selection of acupoints for clinical acupuncture treatment of this disease，and summarizes that needle warming moxibustion plays a role in the treatment of this disease by eliminating inflammatory reaction，improving local microcirculation，inhibiting pain nerves，and increasing pain threshold.
