Abstract

Objectives and Methods : Chronic pancreatitis is an inflammative disease characterized by both persistent and irreversible progression of pancreatic lesions that accompanies complications and pain which hinders everyday life activities. As the alcohol consuming population increases, chronic pancreatitis is increasing consequently. We retrospectively analyzed the medical record of a chronic pancreatitis patient who had been treated with oriental herbal medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion for 40 days. He complained of anorexia, fatigue, indigestion, weight loss, constipation, abdominal discomfort and pain. We prescribed him Daekumeumja, Bojungikgi-tang and other oriental herbal medicines in order to cure these symptoms. Results and Conclusion : For 40 days he was treated with oriental medicine and the symptoms mostly disappeared. When it comes to the therapeutic effects, it could be suggested that oriental medicine has significant effects on improving symptoms and qualities of lives.
