Description

Choyo-to, which has long been used for acute and chronic intestinal disease, dermatological disorders and pulmonary abscess, is attributed to the writings of 7th Century physician Sun Simiao, known as the “Qian-jinyao-fang”. We have also successfully treated nine different patients suffering from various diseases, using Choyo-to. In most of these cases, patients complained of constipation. Thus far, our modern experience suggests that Choyo-to may be indicated for not only right-side pain upon naval palpitation, pressure sensation at the ileocecum and excessive strain of abdominal muscles, but also for cases of dry skin, edematous skin and tendency of normal tongue color.
