ABSTRACT
We report a case of prolonged lumbago with severe cold intolerance successfully treated with keppuchikuoto and uzushakusekishigan. The patient was a 71-year-old female with lumbar spinal canal stenosis which was refractory to several nerve and intervertebral disc block therapies and oral medications. She had been also suffering from constipation, leg cramps, intermittent chest pains, and severe cold intolerance. We prescribed keppuchikuoto for chronic blood stagnation and deficiency and uzushakusekishigan for intermittent chest pains in order to improve those symptoms all together. The severity of her lumbago and severe cold intolerance were remarkably reduced after the administration of the two formulas. This case suggests that the two formulas exerted their effectiveness by ameliorating chronic severe cold intolerance, blood stagnation, and blood deficiency and resulted in remarkable improvement in lumbago.
