Description

<p>Uzushakusekishigan is a Kampo formula described in ‘Jin Gui Yao Lue' for treatment of “heart pain that spreads out to the back, or back pain that spreads to the heart.” We successfully treated three patients with this formula. Patient 1 was a 53-year-old man suffering from precordial pain which occurred after amputation of the right forearm;patient 2 was a 46-year-old man with epigastralgia that occurred after taking cold meals;and patient 3 was a 28-year-old woman suffering from epigastralgia accompanied with panic disorder. Epigastric discomfort and resistance occurred in all three cases, prompting us to prescribe this formula. There are few reports of successful application of uzushakusekishigan, and it is not clear what symptoms and pathologies are relevant when prescribing this formula. However, our findings strongly suggest that uzushakusekishigan should be considered when treating severe chest or abdominal pain.</p>
