Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to report the efficacy of using Hwangnyeonhaedok-tang therapy and Korean medicine to treat headache after whiplash injury. Methods: We used Hwangnyeonhaedok-tang therapy and Korean medicine (herbal medicines, acupuncture, chuna therapy) to treat a hospitalized patient with headache after whiplash injury. We used the ICHD-3 to measure the type of headache. The degree of headache was evaluated using the KHIT-6 and the visual analog scale (VAS). The patient's blood pressure was measured every morning and night. Results: The KHIT-6 and VAS scores decreased after treatment. Blood pressure also decreased. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that Hwangnyeonhaedok-tang and Korean medicine may be effective for treating headache after whiplash injury.
