Major symptoms of Raynaud¡¯s Disease are pain, edema, cyanosis, and redness of hands, feet, nose, and etc. The purpose of this report is to show the curative effect of herbal medicine for Raynaud¡¯s Disease. We provided Prescription of Modified Woogyu-yeum(Yougui-yinjiaweifang ) to patient who was diagnosed with Raynaud¡¯s Disease three times a day for 22 days. We observed changes of symptoms through Digital Infrared Thermographic Imaging, taking photos of both hands, and collecting the survey answered by the patient. Modified Woogyu-yeum reduced pain, edema, and redness of both hands. The frequency of cyanosis decreased after the treatment. Digital Infrared Thermographic Imaging proved a rise in temperature of fingertips after the treatment. In conclusion, Modified Woogyu-yeum showed the possibility of effect on Raynaud¡¯s Disease.
