Abstract
|
|
|
Objective : The purpose of this study is to report a case of lacquer allergy improved by Korean medicine treatment.
Methods : The patient visited our hospital complaining of rash, and pruritus which lasted for 10days after eating lacquer chicken. Considering that patient's symptoms occurred due to food allergen, we prescribed Injinho-tang(Yinchenhao-tang) and acupuncture at Daejang-Junggyeok for 7days.
Results : On the 4th day of treatment, pruritus decreased to less than half of the initial treatment, and skin symptoms also improved to a mild level. About a week later, most of the skin symptoms disappeared (Total Objective Symptom score decreased 10 to 3), and subjective symptoms such as pruritus improved to about 30% of the time of the first visit (Total Subjective Symptom score decreased 12 to 3).
Conclusions : After 7days of Korean medicine treatment, lacquer tree allergy with skin lesions and pruritus has improved considerably.
