Abstract

The purpose of this study was to report the clinical effects of Korean medicine on a patient who suffered from Irritable Bowel Syndrome with diarrhea, abdominal pain, and anorexia for few months. The patient was treated with herbal medicine, acupuncture, and moxibustion in combination with Western medicine for 7 weeks. The clinical symptoms (diarrhea, abdominal pain, and anorexia) were improved after Korean medicine treatment. Therefore, this case is useful for describing Korean medicine treatment for Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and further case reports and studies will be needed in the future.
