Case divided into two groups that are reinforcing method and a method to eliminate pathogenic factor is only Trauma(打撲). Case that have no treatment by medicine is only Abscess of the scrotum(囊癰). 4. In 40 kinds surgical diseases, we can know that except a few important surgical diseases, Ju Dan Gye haven't distinguished viewpoint in many surgical diseases, because there are many cases that have no theory and have only simple treatment of medicine, and that mainly use a method to eliminate pathogenic factors and external therapy. 5. Representative theory of Ju Dan Gye, nourishing Yin and extinguishing fire(滋陰降火), has little effect on therapy of surgical disease. We need to try statistical division of internal and external remedy in the future, and by studing of surgical disase in medical books related with four eminent physicians in the Jin and Yuan dynasties, I think we can see their viewpoint of surgical disease.

In our time, urticaria is tending upwards, consequently the air pollution by industrialization, patronizing of convenience food by simplification of dietary life, stress and an abuse of medicine. Especially in case of chronic urticaria we're under going hardships in elimination of it's symptoms, because it's prognosis is inferior. We inspect the effects of SGT from various viewpoints and meet with following results. Results: 1. AS amount of taking the SGT increase, the effect in taking SGT period and the condition of present time become more satisfactory. 2. As continuous Time of urticaria decrease, the effect in taking SGT period become more satisfactory. 3. Etiology of urticaria is classified into the deficiency both of qi-blood(氣血兩虛), the moisture-heat of spleen-stomach(脾胃濕熱), the heat of blood(血熱), The wind-cold(風寒), The wind-heat(風熱), spleen-stomach accumulated heat(腸胃實熱) ect. The SGT is available in this order. 4.
