ABSTRACT
28 years-old male patient has felt dysesthesia as swelling of forehead, numbness of cheeks and pain of eyes. Dysesthesia has developed gradually.<br>“Fuku-myaku” means the pulse difficult to be palpable. This characteristic pulse and Oketsu symptoms suggested the indications of Tokaku-joki-to and Tokaku-joki-to-go-Daio-botampi-to. As we had found “Fuku-myaku” and oketsu syndrome in this patient, we treated with these kampo medicine according to “Sho” diagnosed by Kampo. The dysesthesia in the patient has been gradually disappeared. At the same time, attacks of asthma which had appeared after discontinuation of Saiboku-to administration have been also disappeared. It is easy to make a mistake that “Fuku-myaku” is for pulse of hypo-functioning condition. But we understand that “Fuku-myaku” is not always for pulse of hypo-functioning condition, but for hyper-functioning condition.
