The treatment group was treated by Chinese medicine foot bath and the control group was treated with warm water foot bath. The incidence of neurotoxicity and adverse reactions of the two groups were observed. Results:The to-tal incidence of neurotoxicity of the treatment group was 13.3% and the control group was 30%. The treat-ment group was significantly lower than the control group and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Both the two groups had no obvious adverse reactions.
