The purpose of this study was to report the effect of Bogijetong-tang on post-herpetic neuralgia(PHN). The main symptoms were numbness, pain, burning, paresthesia on left dorsum pedis and insomina. We prescribed Bogijetong-tang (BJT) three times a day and performed acupuncture and moxibustion twice a day. We observed the change of symptoms to evaluate the therapeutic effect. The symptoms were evaluated with numerical rating scale(NRS). After the treatment, pain decreased from 8 to 3, burning from 5 to 1, paresthesia from 7 to 5, numbness from 5 to 3 and insomina improved. Above the results, Bogijetongtang is effective in treating post-herpetic neuralgia.
