The effect of electric shock on human body is enormousness, which leads to warmth, tingling, and even death. The mean values of perception currents obtained on 91 men and 39 women are about 0.77(mA) for men and 0.57(mA) for women. The mean value for women is approximately seven tenths that of men. An individual can tolerate, with no adverse effects, repeated exposure to the reactions associated with currents of his let-go level, and the mean value of let-go currents obtained from 27 normal men is 6.29(mA). Lethal currents flowing human body is very dangerous even for a short time. So, it is necessary to have recourse to animal experiments ot determine lethal current for human. An analysis of experimental data indicates that body weight and shock duration are important factors in determining the lethal current. It is suggested that the relationship between current and shock duration is given by I=K/.root.T, and lethal current is proportional to body weight, where I is the current in milliampere, and T is the time in seconds.

A schwannoma is a benign soft tissue tumor arising from the nerve sheath of a Schwann cell. Clinically, a schwannoma is an asymptomatic mass rarely causing neurologic deficits. However, it can cause discomfort as well as motor and sensory disturbances by compressing the nerve of its origin. The authors encountered a huge schwannoma arising from the median nerve at the proximal forearm, which caused symptoms mainly in the ulnar nerve. The tingling sensation along the ulnar nerve disappeared completely after enucleation of the schwannoma originating from the median nerve.

Objectives : This study was designed to find out whether normal saline(NS) acupuncture is able to be constituted as an appropriate control group for Cervi Cornu Parvum herbal acupuncture(CC). Methods : NS and CC were injected into Quchi($LI_{11}$) of the subjects. The subjects completed a questionnaire rating the intensity of 21 kinds of acupuncture sensation(hurting, penetrating, sharp, aching, intense, spreading, radiating, tingling, pricking, stinging, pulling, heavy, dull, numb, electric, shocking, hot, burning, cool, pulsing, and throbbing) and side effects. We compared subjective evaluations of acupuncture sensation and side effects between two groups. Results : As for CC most of the acupuncture sensation items were not significantly different from NS especially in less acupuncture-experienced subjects(average 2, below 10 time experiences) rather than more acupuncture-experienced subjects(above 10 time experiences). Conclusions : We found that NS might be an appropriate placebo herbal acupuncture for CC in small amount of acupuncture-experienced subjects. Further study is needed for new placebo herbal acupuncture for CC in more acupuncture-experienced subjects.

Objects : This study was to report a clinical effect of Chuna Treatment for HIVD-cervical spine Failed Back Surgery Syndrome(FBSS) patient. Methods : In order to alleviate both arm tingling, numbness and neck stiffness, the patient was treated by acupuncture therapy, cervical traction technique of Chuna treatment and conservative managements. To evaluate the effect of the treatment, Recovery rate of Hirabayashi, Verbal Numerical Rating Scale(VNRS) and Neck Disability Index(NDI) score were used. Results : VNRS and NDI were improved and Recovery rate was 100%. Conclusions : Korean Treatment can be effectively used for a patient with HIVD-cervical spine FBSS patient. Further clinical studies are needed to verify the findings.

The herpes zoster infecting ophthalmic branch of trigeminal Nerve that is similar to migraine at first stage symptom has been treated with oriental medication at Dept. of Internal Medicine, Semyung University Oriental Hospital. The fIrst symptom of roster is burning pain, tingling or extreme sensitivity in one area of the skin, usually limited to one side of the body. This may be present for one to three days before a red rash appears at that site. There may also be a fever or headache. The rash soon turns into groups of blisters. The blisters start out clear but then pus or dark blood collects in the blisters before they crust over (scab) and begin to disappear. The pain may last longer. In this case, the severe pain was present for five days, the blisters and scabsdisappeared entirely on the seventeenth day, but postherpetic neuralgia, the most common complication and is observed most frequently in the ophthalmic branch of trigeminal nerve, was not prevented entirely. We have observed this case and report to help treatment on this disease at oriental medicine clinic.

A case of a peroneal nerve palsy caused by repeatedly recurred intraneural ganglion cyst is presented. A 19 year old male suffered from tingling sensation on the foot dorsum more than one year and underwent two times of mass excision and nerve palsy was recorvered. But it was recurred once more after 10 months after the second excision. The mass was located in the fibro-osseous tunnel against the fibular neck and the origin of the peroneus longus. The third complete excision was done and full recovery was obtained in 6 months.

Paresthesia is an altered sensation of the skin, manifesting as numbness, partial loss of local sensitivity, burning, or tingling. The inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) is the third branch of the trigeminal nerve and is very important in dental treatment. IAN paresthesia may occur after various dental procedures such as simple anesthetic injections, surgical procedures, and endodontic treatment, and is reported to range from 0.35% to 8.4%. The altered sensation usually follows immediately after the procedure, and reports of late onset of nerve involvement are rare. This report presents a rare case of delayed paresthesia after dental surgery and discusses the pathophysiology of IAN delayed paresthesia.

Neuropathic cancer pain (NCP) is caused by nerve damage attributable to the cancer per se, and/or treatments including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery; the prevalence is reported to be as high as 40%. The etiologies of NCP include direct nerve invasion or nerve compression by the cancer, neural toxicity, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. NCP is subdivided into plexopathy, radiculopathy, and peripheral neuropathies, among several other categories. The clinical characteristics of NCP differ from those of nociceptive pain in terms of both the hypersensitivity symptoms (burning, tingling, and an electrical sensation) and the hyposensitivity symptoms (numbness and muscle weakness). Recovery requires several months to years, even after recovery from injury. Management is complex; NCP does not usually respond to opioids, although treatments may feature both opioids and adjuvant drugs including antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and anti-arrhythmic agents, all of which improve the quality-of-life. This review addresses the pathophysiology, clinical characteristics and management of NCP, and factors rendering pain control difficult.

A hypertrophied peroneal tubercle can present as a bony prominence at the lateral aspect of the foot and a peroneal tenosynovitis or tear. We report a case of a 52-year-old man complaining of lateral foot tingling pain and numbness. The sural nerve entrapment and peroneus longus tenosynovitis by hypertrophied peroneal tubercle were confirmed. Good results were obtained after excision of the hypertrophied peroneal tubercle and sural nerve release.
