Description

The use of orento for dermatosis is commonplace. We report herein the effective treatment of five cases of facial erythema and flushing using orento, based on the observation of heat symptom patterns in the upper part of the body and cold symptoms in the middle part of the body. Few reports have described specific symptoms of upper heat and middle cold ; however, interpreting ‘facial erythema and flushing exacerbated by warming',‘red face', ‘hot flashes', ‘hot sweats' and ‘yellow fur on the tongue' as “upper heat” , and ‘preference for warm drinks', ‘diarrhea exacerbated by cold drinks', and ‘objective coldness in the epigastric region' as “middle cold” enabled the application of orento for dermatosis in our experience.
