Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of combined Korean medical treatment on chronic headache with digestive symptoms. Methods: We collected data from October to December 2020 and evaluated the efficacy of combined Korean medical treatment using the Korean Headache Impact Test-g (KHIT-6), European Quality of Life Five Dimensions (EQ5D) Scale, and Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) at admission, after two weeks of hospitalization, and on discharge. Results: At the end of treatment, the patient had increased EQ5D and reduced KHIT-6 and NRS scores. Conclusions: After the combined Korean medical treatment, the patient showed improvement, suggesting the efficacy of treatment.
