Abstract
We report the case of a 65-year-old female with burn injury from scalds. She was observed with a burn injury of the right arm and leg that occurred 6 days before. She was treated with pharmacoacupuncture Soyeom, and herb medicine daily for 3 weeks. After Twenty days, burn wound size was reduced and tissue regeneration was accelerated. In conclusion, it is our belief that pharmacoacupuncture and herb medicine is effective to treat burn injury, and future studies will be required to ascertain this method on burn injury.
