The Clinical Observation of 8 Cases of Acnes Diseases

面疱散의 面疱疾患 治驗 8例

Acne is a chronic, inflammatory disorder that mainly affects teenagers and young adults. The disease has many causes, blocking hair follicle or sebaceous gland. Acne is not life threatening, but quality of a patient is compromised. Therefore, the patient needs an active treatment. With this in mind, I witnessed some noticeable improvement among the patients by prescribing Myunposan(面疱散). Here are the findings of my experience. 1. Out of acne patients who visited Oriental Medicine Hospital of Kyung-Won University(暻園大學校서울韓方病院) during September 2000 - December 2000, 8 patients whose prognosis is dramatic were subjects. 2. Myunposan(面疱散) deems effective in removing wind(祛風), unnecessary metabolite(祛痰), heat(淸熱), and draining pus(排膿), and preventing evil effects(解毒). 3. In the case of those 8 success stories as a result of taking Myunposan(面疱散), in the order of redness, pain, iching, and fever, symptoms were quick to disappear, and papula, pustula, etc got better albeit slower. 4. Depending on general symptoms, oriental medicine and acupuncture treatment on top of taking Myunposan(面疱散), symptoms were even quicker to go away and improved.
