Abstract:
A 7 year-old male patient who suffer from trigeminal trophic syndrome following herpes zoster was treated with a combination of rokumigan and sansoninto. We conclude that the pathogeneses in this case were excessive rises in liver yang and liver wind caused by yin deficiencies of the kidneys and liver, and that these were ameliorated by the effect of the rokumigan and sansoninto combination in nourishing kidney yin, clearing away heat-evil, and eliminating restlessness.
