Abstract: We report the case of a 36-year-old male who presented with an abdominal complaint after straightening of irregular teeth. He was examined and treated, however, the cause of the abdominal complaint could not be determined and the treatment was ineffective. He was treated in our clinic with yokukansankachinpihange for obvious pulsation in the supraumbilical region following the oral tradition of Kampo medicine, and the symptom gradually disappeared. We discussed the mechanism of the stomachache in Kampo medicine. After treatment, this case was diagnosed as somatoform autonomic dysfunction in psychiatric medicine. Advanced treatment by a psychiatrist was necessary to treat this disease in psychiatric medicine. In this case it is suggested that treatment following the oral tradition of Kampo medicine was effective.
