Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This clinical study reports the effects of Cheonggansoyo-san (CSS) on three patients with glossodynia.
Methods: Three patients with glossodynia were treated with CSS (i.e., an herbal medicine) and acupuncture. Numeric rating scales (NRSs) for glossodynia and dry mouth and hwa-byung questionnaire scores were evaluated, and the results from heart rate variability (HRV) evaluations were analyzed.
Results: After treatment with CSS, three patients’ glossodynia symptoms, such as burning sensations, tingling, and numbness of the tongue, were improved. NRS ratings for glossodynia and dry mouth and the hwa-byung questionnaire scores also improved, and HRV parameters were closer to the normal range.
Conclusion: Cheonggansoyo-san could be used to treat glossodynia.
