In recent years, acupoint herbal patching (AHP) therapy has gained a growing interest as a potential management option for AR. This systematic review and meta-analysis will evaluate the clinical research evidence on the effectiveness and safety of AHP as a treatment option for AR outside of the Sanfu or Sanjiu days (summer or winter solstice).

- Perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR) is becoming more common globally, and ear acupressure (EAP) is explored as a potential noninvasive treatment option.
