Potential therapeutic effect of hainosankyuto on subperiosteal abscess: A case report.

The article discusses a case of a 31-year-old male with a subperiosteal abscess and cellulitis in the jaw area, which improved with the use of hainosankyuto (HNST). Initially diagnosed with pericoronitis, the patient's condition worsened, leading to mandibular osteomyelitis. Treatment with HNST, a traditional herbal medicine, resulted in pain relief and inflammation improvement, suggesting its potential as an alternative therapy for dental infections. The study highlights the effectiveness of early HNST administration in managing such conditions and the need for further research on its combined use with antimicrobial agents.
