Abstract
|
|
|
|
Abnormal sensation is the main manifestation of diabetic neuropathy. We treated 53 year-old male patient suffering from diabetic neuropathy with Yukmijihwang-Hwan, herb complex, which has been used to treat Yin deficiency syndrome in Oriental Medicine, The patient complained abnormal sensation(numbness, pain) in the back portion and the both of plantar arch. We could observe the symptom improved after 1 months since the beginning of administration and disappeared after 9 months. So we suggest that long-term administration of Yukmijihwang-Hwan has therapeutic effect on abnormal sensation caused by diabetic neuropathy with the diagnosis of Yin deficiency in Oriental medicine.
