Abstract:
Keishi-kyokei-ka-bukuryo-byakujutsu-to has been traditionally used for acute infectious diseases, such as the common cold, accompanied by epigastric discomfort and tenderness. However, the specific dosage for chronic diseases has not been clearly set yet. This study involved 4 cases with headaches, dull headaches, stiff shoulders and lumbago, so called neck, shoulder and arm syndrome which responded to Keishi-kyokei-kabukuryo-byakujutsu-to. The experience of these cases suggests that conditions indicating Keishi-kyokei-kabukuryo-byakujutsu-to have the following features: (1) dry skin, (2) edema and impressions of teeth at the rim of the tongue, (3) tenderness upon pressure in the epigastric region and sound of fluctuating liquid in the stomach, (4) Ki-deficiency.
