My palms are
itchy and painful!

Hello, I am Dr. Ji-yeon Hong of Yon Oriental Medicine Clinic.

Smooth, glowing, flawless skin is something almost everyone wishes for, right? I, too, used to hear people say I had great skin back in the day... but it’s a bit lacking now due to aging. Anyway, that was a TMI (Too Much Information). Haha.

Getting to the point, it is very stressful when even just one bump appears on your face, isn't it? It's that feeling of discomfort that only you notice, even if others don't. I think it’s more accurate to say it’s nerve-wracking and makes you feel self-conscious rather than just painful.

Itchy and painful skin concerns
Skin Trouble

Early treatment is important before it spreads

Things are different when a mild trouble goes beyond just being a nuisance and starts itching, hurting, and spreading to other areas. Since the duration of treatment increases the longer the condition lasts, early intervention is essential.

Recently, we have seen a significant increase in patients visiting our clinic for skin diseases. We treat patients of all ages, both men and women, with various conditions such as palm dyshidrotic eczema, scattered rashes all over the body, childhood atopic dermatitis, pimple-like breakouts, suppurative rashes with pus, and skin diseases that started suddenly for no apparent reason.

Many people contact us by phone to inquire about skin conditions before visiting. In most cases, they have received dermatological treatment for over a year without success. Patients come to us with various concerns, asking, "How do you treat childhood atopy?", "I've had prurigo for a year; is it treatable?", "I get skin rashes periodically every year; how do you treat that?", or "Can you also treat warts?"

Treatment

Oriental medicine approach
to skin disease treatment

Although I cannot give a precise diagnosis
without seeing your health condition or the affected area in person,
I would like to provide an overview
of our general treatment process.

POINT 01

Check overall body condition

We first carefully examine not just the skin symptoms, but the patient's overall physical state.

POINT 02

Identify the affected area and cause

We verify the state and location of the affected area and consider various factors, such as situations of improvement or aggravation, to identify the root cause.

POINT 03

Check medical history

The duration of the skin condition and the length of previous treatments with steroid ointments or medications are crucial factors we check to determine the direction of treatment.

POINT 04

Combined internal & external treatment

By assessing the severity of the illness, we decide whether the patient can improve with external treatment alone or if internal treatment must be carried out simultaneously.
