Why the Sudden Cold Sweat and Dizziness?
안녕하세요. 백록담한의원 최연승 한의사입니다. <br><br> 오늘은 저희 한의원에서 진행하고 있는 체외충격파 치료에 대해 말씀드리고자 합니다. <br><br> <a target="_blank" href="https://blog.naver.com/dr_choiys/223405799984" class="se-link-box-wrap __se_link_layout_img_left"> <div class="se-link-box"> <div class="se-link-img-wrap"> <img src="https://dthumb-phinf.pstatic.net/?src=%22https%3A%2F%2Fblogfiles.naver.net%2FMjAyNDA0MDJfMTcx%2FMjAyNDA0MDJfMjU1%2FMjUyNTk2NDYzNzAxXzE2MDY3NDIwNjk4MDQxLmpwZ3wzNUo3d2d5R1R6UW9DVkx5Nmhndk8yU1Q2eE1wR3p6Smh5T1h6c3Q2MXcwLmFwZz90eXBlPXNlNjgzXzk2&type=ff500_300" class="se-link-img" alt=""> </div> <div class="se-link-text-wrap"> <strong class="se-link-text">체외충격파 치료를 받아야하는 질환들</strong> <p class="se-link-summary">안녕하세요. 백록담한의원 최연승 한의사입니다. 최근 저희 한의원에 체외충격파 치료를 받기 위해 ...</p> <p class="se-link-url">blog.naver.com</p> </div> </div> </a> <br><br> 저번 포스팅에서 체외충격파 치료가 효과적인 질환들에 대해 말씀드렸습니다. <br><br> 이번 포스팅에서는 체외충격파 치료가 무엇인지, 그 치료 원리는 어떻게 되는지 자세히 알아보겠습니다. <br><br> 체외충격파 치료는 체외에서 충격파를 발생시켜 통증 부위에 전달하여 치료하는 비침습적 치료법입니다. <br><br> 신체의 외부에서 충격파를 발생시킨다고 해서 "체외충격파"라고 부릅니다. <br><br> 체외충격파 치료에 사용되는 충격파는 공기압을 이용하는 방사형 체외충격파(Radial Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy, RSWT)와 전기-자기장을 이용하는 집중형 체외충격파(Focused Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy, FSWT) 두 가지가 있습니다. <br><br> 어려운 용어들이 많죠? <br><br> 하지만 걱정하지 마세요. 핵심만 쏙쏙 뽑아 쉽고 재미있게 설명해 드리겠습니다. <br><br> 먼저, 체외충격파 치료의 역사를 간단히 살펴보겠습니다. <br><br> 체외충격파 치료는 1980년대 초반 비뇨기과에서 신장 결석을 파쇄하는 데 처음 사용되었습니다. <br><br> 이후 정형외과, 재활의학과 등 다양한 분야에서 통증 치료 및 조직 재생에 활용되면서 그 효과가 입증되었습니다. <br><br> 특히, 만성 통증 치료에 뛰어난 효과를 보여 많은 환자들에게 희망을 주고 있습니다. <br><br> 저희 백록담한의원에서는 이러한 체외충격파 치료를 환자분들의 증상과 체질에 맞춰 적용하고 있습니다. <br><br> 자 이제 체외충격파 치료의 원리를 자세히 살펴보겠습니다. <br><br> 체외충격파는 크게 세 가지 방식으로 작용합니다. <br><br> 첫째, 통증 감소 효과입니다. <br><br> 충격파가 통증 부위에 전달되면, 신경 말단을 자극하여 통증 전달 물질의 분비를 억제하고, 통증 역치를 높여 통증을 감소시킵니다. <br><br> 또한, 혈액 순환을 개선하여 염증 물질을 제거하고, 부종을 완화하는 데 도움을 줍니다. <br><br> 둘째, 조직 재생 효과입니다. <br><br> 충격파는 손상된 조직에 미세한 자극을 주어 혈관 신생을 촉진하고, 성장 인자의 분비를 증가시켜 조직 재생을 돕습니다. <br><br> 이를 통해 힘줄, 인대, 근육 등 손상된 조직의 회복을 가속화할 수 있습니다. <br><br> 셋째, 석회 침착물 제거 효과입니다. <br><br> 만성 통증 환자 중 일부는 힘줄이나 인대에 석회 침착물이 쌓여 통증을 유발하는 경우가 있습니다. <br><br> 체외충격파는 이러한 석회 침착물을 잘게 부수어 몸 밖으로 배출되도록 돕습니다. <br><br> 이로 인해 통증이 경감되고, 관절의 움직임이 부드러워질 수 있습니다. <br><br> 정말 신기하죠? <br><br> 백록담한의원에서는 체외충격파 치료의 이러한 장점들을 활용하여 환자분들의 통증을 효과적으로 치료하고 있습니다. <br><br> 환자분들의 증상과 체질, 통증 부위와 정도 등을 종합적으로 고려하여 맞춤형 치료를 제공합니다. <br><br> 저희 한의원의 체외충격파 치료는 비수술적이고 비침습적인 방법으로 부작용이 거의 없으며, 짧은 시간 안에 통증 개선 효과를 기대할 수 있습니다. <br><br> 또한, 시술 후 바로 일상생활이 가능하여 바쁜 현대인들에게도 적합한 치료법입니다. <br><br> 백록담한의원의 체외충격파 치료를 통해 만성 통증에서 벗어나 건강하고 활기찬 일상을 되찾으시길 바랍니다. <br><br> 궁금한 점이 있으시면 언제든지 문의해주세요. <br><br> 감사합니다. Hello. This is Choi Yeon-seung, Doctor of Korean Medicine at Baengnokdam Korean Medicine Clinic. <br><br> Today, I'd like to talk about Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) that we offer at our clinic. <br><br> <a target="_blank" href="https://blog.naver.com/dr_choiys/223405799984" class="se-link-box-wrap __se_link_layout_img_left"> <div class="se-link-box"> <div class="se-link-img-wrap"> <img src="https://dthumb-phinf.pstatic.net/?src=%22https%3A%2F%2Fblogfiles.naver.net%2FMjAyNDA0MDJfMTcx%2FMjAyNDA0MDJfMjU1%2FMjUyNTk2NDYzNzAxXzE2MDY3NDIwNjk4MDQxLmpwZ3wzNUo3d2d5R1R6UW9DVkx5Nmhndk8yU1Q2eE1wR3p6Smh5T1h6c3Q2MXcwLmFwZz90eXBlPXNlNjgzXzk2&type=ff500_300" class="se-link-img" alt=""> </div> <div class="se-link-text-wrap"> <strong class="se-link-text">Conditions that require Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy</strong> <p class="se-link-summary">Hello. This is Choi Yeon-seung, Doctor of Korean Medicine at Baengnokdam Korean Medicine Clinic. Recently, to receive Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy at our clinic...</p> <p class="se-link-url">blog.naver.com</p> </div> </div> </a> <br><br> In my previous post, I discussed conditions for which Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy is effective. <br><br> In this post, we'll delve deeper into what Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy is and how its treatment principles work. <br><br> Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment method that generates shockwaves externally and delivers them to the painful area for treatment. <br><br> It's called "Extracorporeal Shockwave" because the shockwaves are generated outside the body. <br><br> There are two types of shockwaves used in Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy: Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (RSWT), which uses air pressure, and Focused Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (FSWT), which uses an electro-magnetic field. <br><br> Many difficult terms, aren't there? <br><br> But don't worry. I'll extract the core information and explain it in an easy-to-understand and engaging way. <br><br> First, let's briefly look at the history of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy. <br><br> Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy was first used in urology in the early 1980s to break up kidney stones. <br><br> Since then, its effectiveness has been proven as it's been utilized in various fields such as orthopedics and rehabilitation medicine for pain treatment and tissue regeneration. <br><br> In particular, it has shown excellent results in treating chronic pain, offering hope to many patients. <br><br> At Baengnokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we apply this Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy tailored to each patient's symptoms and body constitution. <br><br> Now, let's take a detailed look at the principles of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy. <br><br> Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy works in three main ways. <br><br> First, pain reduction. <br><br> When shockwaves are delivered to the painful area, they stimulate nerve endings, inhibiting the secretion of pain-transmitting substances and raising the pain threshold, thereby reducing pain. <br><br> Furthermore, it helps improve blood circulation, remove inflammatory substances, and alleviate edema. <br><br> Second, tissue regeneration. <br><br> Shockwaves provide micro-stimuli to damaged tissues, promoting angiogenesis and increasing the secretion of growth factors, thereby aiding tissue regeneration. <br><br> This can accelerate the recovery of damaged tissues such as tendons, ligaments, and muscles. <br><br> Third, the effect of removing calcium deposits. <br><br> Some patients with chronic pain experience pain due to calcium deposits accumulating in their tendons or ligaments. <br><br> Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy helps break down these calcium deposits into smaller pieces, facilitating their expulsion from the body. <br><br> This can lead to pain relief and smoother joint movement. <br><br> Isn't that fascinating? <br><br> At Baengnokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we leverage these advantages of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy to effectively treat our patients' pain. <br><br> We provide customized treatment, comprehensively considering each patient's symptoms, body constitution, pain location, and severity. <br><br> Our clinic's Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy is a non-surgical, non-invasive method with almost no side effects, and pain improvement can be expected in a short amount of time. <br><br> Furthermore, daily life can be resumed immediately after the procedure, making it a suitable treatment for busy modern individuals. <br><br> We hope that through Baengnokdam Korean Medicine Clinic's Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, you can overcome chronic pain and regain a healthy and vibrant daily life. <br><br> If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us anytime. <br><br> Thank you.

Lump in the Throat & Dry Cough | Incheon Globus Sensation
<p>Hello, this is Baeknokdam Korean Medicine Clinic. Baeknokdam Korean Medicine Clinic is located near Jeju National University Hospital. It's located right in the <span>adjacent building</span>.</p> <p>Today, I'd like to share my <span>dental treatment review</span> from last week.</p> <p>I had <span>gum treatment</span> and <span>wisdom tooth extraction</span> due to gum inflammation and loose teeth. The gum treatment was performed along with <span>dental scaling</span>, and because it was a relatively straightforward wisdom tooth extraction (not an impacted wisdom tooth), the <span>post-extraction pain</span> wasn't too severe.</p> <p>However, I experienced <span>discomfort and pain</span> for about a week after the dental treatment. Since many patients who regularly receive <span>acupuncture treatment</span> at Baeknokdam Korean Medicine Clinic also visit us for <span>TMJ pain or masticatory muscle pain</span> after dental procedures, I wanted to share my experience.</p> <p>Dental treatments often involve applying <span>pressure inside the mouth</span>, and prolonged periods of keeping the mouth open can place significant <span>strain on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ)</span>.</p> <p>If the TMJ is overstressed, it can lead to conditions such as <span>TMJ inflammation, TMJ disc displacement, and muscle pain around the temporomandibular joint</span>.</p> <p>Symptoms that may appear due to TMJ and surrounding muscle pain after dental treatment include:</p> <ul> <li>Pain when opening the mouth</li> <li>Clicking, popping, or grinding sounds from the jaw joint when opening the mouth</li> <li>TMJ pain when yawning</li> <li>Stiffness and pain in the muscles around the jaw</li> <li>Headaches, facial pain</li> <li>TMJ pain when chewing food</li> <li>Ear pain, tinnitus</li> <li>Neck and shoulder pain</li> </ul> <p>While pain around the TMJ often improves naturally over time, <span>active treatment</span> may be necessary if symptoms persist or worsen.</p> <p>If you experience TMJ pain or masticatory muscle pain after dental treatment, effective treatment is available at Baeknokdam Korean Medicine Clinic through <span>acupuncture, pharmacoacupuncture, and herbal medicine</span>.</p> <p><span>Acupuncture</span> helps relax tense muscles around the TMJ and <span>alleviates pain</span>, while <span>pharmacoacupuncture</span> directly injects herbal medicine ingredients with <span>anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects</span> to help <span>reduce inflammation and improve pain</span>. Additionally, <span>herbal medicine</span> helps <span>improve circulation</span> around the TMJ and <span>boosts immunity</span>, aiding in the recovery from TMJ disorders.</p> <p>If you are experiencing discomfort due to TMJ pain or masticatory muscle pain after dental treatment, we recommend visiting <span>Baeknokdam Korean Medicine Clinic</span> for a consultation.</p> <p>If you have any questions, please feel free to contact <span>Baeknokdam Korean Medicine Clinic</span> at any time.</p> <p>Thank you.</p>
My Feet Are Hot! What Causes Burning Soles?
<p>Hello, I am Choi Yeon-seung, a doctor of Korean medicine at Baengnokdam Korean Medicine Clinic.<br /> Today, I'd like to post about what I've learned from observing patients who suffered from <b>lower back pain</b>.<br /> <br /> Lower back pain that throbs even when you stay still, a tearing pain that occurs when you change your posture or move, making it impossible to sleep properly and hindering daily life.<br /> Those who haven't experienced it can never truly understand it.</p> <p>Shall we explore the types of lower back pain and how to treat them?</p> <p><b><span style="font-size: 20px;">1. Types of Lower Back Pain</span></b><br /> <br /> Lower back pain can be broadly divided into two categories.</p> <p><b>1) Muscle Pain</b><br /> <br /> Lower back muscle pain often manifests as pain during specific movements when you move your back.<br /> It occurs when muscles tense up, and a characteristic feature is that it improves quickly once the tense muscles are relaxed.</p> <p><b>2) Disc Pain</b><br /> <br /> Unlike lower back muscle pain, lower back disc pain often causes not just pain in specific movements, but also numbness and pain extending to the buttocks and legs.<br /> This pain occurs when a disc compresses a nerve. In such cases, the treatment period is longer than for muscle pain, and if not treated properly, there is a high likelihood of it becoming chronic.</p>
