AB - Objective: Furuncles are localized infections of the hair follicles and can occur on any part of the body where they are present. They typically appear as solitary lesions but may progress to furunculosis in cases of recurrent occurrences. Furuncles are characterized by inflammation of the hair follicle and are accompanied by symptoms such as erythema, localized heat, and pain. The primary causative agents are Staphylococcus species. Diagnosis is usually straightforward based on the characteristic appearance of the lesion and visual inspection of the affected area and surrounding skin; however, if necessary, microbiological diagnosis can be performed using Gram staining or bacterial culture.
Case Report: The patient in this case study is a Korean male in his 50s who experienced recurrent inflammation in various parts of his body. During this period, a furuncle approximately 2 cm in size developed in the buttock area. In response, Ortho-Cellular Nutrition Therapy (OCNT) was applied, prescribing Platycodon grandiflorum, Paeonia lactiflora, jujube, and bromelain. The furuncle subsided within two days of nutrient administration, and the discolored skin tissue returned to normal within six days.
Conclusion: In this case study, the application of OCNT was found to improve the patient's furuncle. Although the study was conducted on a single patient and thus has limitations in being generalized to all individuals with furuncles, the marked improvement of symptoms within a short period and the enhancement of the patient's quality of life suggest that the results are meaningful.
