We report on a Soeumin patient with spontaneous sweating after a lung segmentectomy resulting from aspergillosis. During her inpatient stay, the patient received Soeumin Gwakhyangjunggi-san, Hwanggigyeji-tang, and Seungyangikgi-tang for herbal medication. She also received acupuncture, moxibustion, pharmacopuncture, and cupping therapy. A numeric rating scale (NRS) was used to assess the improvement of symptoms. Sweating was reduced, as reflected by an NRS change from 7 to 0, when the herbal medication changed from Soeumin Gwakhyangjunggi-san to Hwanggigyeji-tang. General weakness and chest discomfort were also relieved after using Hwanggigyeji-tang and Seungyangikgi-tang. These results suggest that Hwanggigyeji-tang and Seungyangikgi-tang are clinically effective for Soeumin patients who are appropriately diagnosed with yang collapse syndrome in the postoperative setting.

This work reports the case of a middle cerebral artery infarction patient with hyperhidrosis and left upper extremity paresthesia whose condition improved following Korean medicine treatment. The patient was hospitalized for 10 days and treated with herbal medicine, mainly Hwanggigyeji-tang, and acupuncture, electroacupuncture, and moxibustion. The hyperhidrosis was clinically classified and the patient's subjective discomfort in this regard was also checked. A subjective percentage of strength and sensation in the left extremity was evaluated to assess the clinical effects of the treatment. After treatment, the hyperhidrosis classification improved from Grade 3 to Grade 0, and the patient's subjective discomfort was greatly improved and continued for the two weeks after discharge. In addition, subjective strength and sensation improved by 20% and 5%, respectively, compared to time of admission. These results suggest that Korean medicine is effective in treating paresthesia after stroke and long-lasting hyperhidrosis.
