Atopy cases are too common to record one by one. The pupose of this atopy case
that looks as common case is to show the following backgrounds ;
1) The boy's atopy has been severe from his birth on.
2) He has never been treated
3) However, only one prescription of a couple of weeks dosage had his atopy disappear
at all. I persuaded his parents to have him treated more but they didn't accept my
proposal. I have watched him for 3 years but the atopy has not reappeared yet. This
good case is very rare! (He lives near to Harabi clinic and when he caught a cold,
he came to me get my prescription. So I could watch his atopy continuously.

2. Chief Complaints
Atopy on the whole body except for his face.
He has never been treated at any medical institutes or applied with steroids.
His parents are poorly educated and they think the atopy is natural to their son
because the atopy has been on his body from his birth on.
3. Other Symptoms and Signs
Chronic tympanitis
Dry stool
Pulse : Sunk, narrow, pecking and a little slow
Tongue : Geographic
Abdomen : Stiffness on the all of the upper but no pain.
Very trickling
4. Diagnosis
Liver weak and congestive
Heart a little weak
Spleen big and strong
Lung weak
5. Pathology
Atopy comes from the weakness of liver, heart and lung. Details shall be skipped.
However, this boy's atopy is natural but, as you see, treated very simply.
I thought the reason for very long time and came to the conclusion that his atopy
came from the chemical seasoning agents. His family are living with small snack
store so they had have to take lots of chemicals that will be overloaded to the liver.
Another hint is that his face was always very clean despite of natural stopy.
6. Prescription
To get rid of humidity
To purify blood
To lower fever
7. Results
At the first, I thought the period time would be at least 3 months and 5 ~ 6 times of
prescriptions. But it was my mistake and my short of study. He recovered clearly
with one prescription of a couple of weeks dosage. As i mentioned above, I could
watch him continously for 3 years, but his atopy has never reoccured so far.
1st prescription
To get rid of humidity
To purify blood
To lower fever equally
Result
A couple of weeks later, his mom brought him to get a prescription for cold. After
a short of conversation, I confirmed his naked body very clean. I couldn't believe
that the atopy was treated perfectly, so I pushed his mom to have him take more
herbal prescriptions. But his mom didn't accept my proposal and didn't try to
understand my explanation. She smiled at me. "OK, I will brought my son when
the atopy reappear in future."
If I had been more thoughtful, I must have noticed that his atopy was not so serious
because his geographic tongue has changed to normal one within such short period.
And 4 months later, he came to me for a cold. I checked his tongue again. Then the
geographic appeared slightly. So I had to call his mom to explain his symptoms and
requested her to get more prescriptions. But then, as she did so, she refused to
accept my proposal.
From then on to now 3 years having passed, the atopy have never reappeared at all.
This is a strange case worthy of being recorded!
