The control group receives standard treatment (post-operative anti-infection, fluid supplementation, and symptomatic treatment), while the experimental group receives Shenkangling decoction orally on top of standard treatment (one dose per day, split into two doses: one 30 minutes before breakfast and one 30 minutes after dinner). Randomization Method: Random numbers (1-96) are generated using SPSS software and randomly assigned to the Shen Kang Ling group and the control group, each receiving 48 numbers. The distribution results are kept confidential by the group leader, who determines and records the grouping and sequence number of patients. 2.5 Statistical Analysis Method SPSS v22.0 will be used for statistical analysis. Categorical data will be analyzed using the χ² test. Continuous data will be presented as means ± standard deviations (SD) and compared using t-tests. Statistical significance is set at p \< 0.05.
