Abstract

Epistaxis is the condition which the blood comes out with the nose. It has been known that nasal bleeding happens with many reasons. In most cases, epistaxis is a slight illness, but sometimes, it leads to death because of longstanding or copious bleeding. First of all, to stop a hemorrhage is most important treatment for epistaxis, but the curative effect of oriental medical treatment for epistaxis does not become known well. We treated a patient suffered from epistasis with acupuncture, herb medication. After treatment we observed the improvement. Based on this study, it is considered that oriental medical treatment can be applied to the management of epistaxis.
