Objectives This study aimed to investigate the effect of SJS non-resistance technique- facial palsy (SJSNRT-F) using Korean medicine treatment on facial nerve palsy through three case studies.
Methods SJSNRT-F, with other Korean medicine treatments, was performed on three patients who underwent treatment at OO Korean Medicine Hospital from March 2021 to August 2021. Additionally, the House-Brackmann grading system (H-B grade) and Yanagihara's unweighted grading system (Yanagihara's score) were evaluated in these patients.
Results There was a significant increase in the Yanagihara scores. Except for one patient who was discharged early, two patients showed improvement in the H-B grade.
Conclusions This study suggests that Korean medicine treatment including SJSNRTF may affect the treatment of facial nerve palsy. However, better clinical studies are needed to confirm the same.
