Case Study 1:
Miss S., a 35 year old German woman was presented for treatment on 8 january, 1996. She complained of an itchy nose and frequent sneezing. It was a condition she endured for the previous 4 years. She explained that she would start sneezing at 4 a.m. and the sneezing would continue until noon or even into the evening. She felt constant nasal obstruction and shortness of breath which often led to frontal headache. The symptoms continued throughout the year. After examination in a hospital, she was told she was allergic to pollens and animal dander. Allergic rhinitis persisted, however, despite her effort to avoid contact with all suspected allergens. She complained of lassitude and intolerance to cold. Daily use of steroids produced no effect. Examination revealed a pale face, a whitish tongue with white and greasy coat, and taut and feeble pulses. She was identified as having qi insufficiency and yang insufficiency. Acupuncture treatment was given and needles were retained for 30 minutes. The treatment was performed twice a week.
All symptoms disappeared after 8 treatments and follow-up for a year revealed no relapse.
Comment
Through replenishing of Yin and Yang, Qi and Blood, and resolution of Phlegm, all measures based on Categorical identification, human resistance is enhanced and a new balance between Yin and Yang is established in the body, under such circumstances, nasal discharge may be resolved more readily and rehabilitation is accelerated.
