Abstract
Objectives : The purpose of this study is to present three case reports on the treatments of pustulosis palmaris et plantaris patients. Methods : We administered herbal medicine to three patients who had pustulosis palmaris et plantaris and evaluated the results by Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI). Results : After the treatment all three patients showed improvements in PASI. PASI of patient 1 changed from 3.6 to 0.8; patient 2 from 4.2 to 0.8; patient 3 from 5.6 to 0.4. Conclusions : The results suggest that herbal medicine can be an effective treatment for female pustulosis palmaris et plantaris patients.
