Objectives The purpose of this case study is to report the effectiveness of Korean medicine in the treatment of chronic hyperhidrosis.
Methods The patient was diagnosed as a Soeumin Mang-yang Syndrome, and treated with Korean medical treatment such as Sungyangikgibuja-tang and acupuncture treatment. The severity of symptom was assessed using Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and follow-up of Hyperhidrosis Quality of Life Index (HidroQOL)
Results After treatment, the severity of hyperhidrosis was decreased from NRS 10 to NRS 2, HidroQOL score was also decreased from 32 to 19.
