Q Is a remote consultation also possible?
A If your symptoms are stable, you can begin history-taking and consultation remotely. However, accurate diagnosis, herbal prescription, and treatments such as nasal bloodletting require an in-person visit, and if you have one-sided bloody discharge or vision abnormalities, an in-person examination is recommended first.
Detailed Answer
If your condition is stable and there are no warning signs, we can listen to your symptoms and lifestyle patterns and begin a basic consultation remotely. Understanding your condition ahead of the first visit can save time. However, an in-person visit is needed for examination that directly inspects the nasal mucosa, procedures such as nasal bloodletting, and accurate herbal prescription.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
If you have bloody discharge from only one side or signs such as reduced vision or a bulging eyeball, we recommend first getting an evaluation at a nearby medical facility to rule out the possibility of other conditions. Dongjedang's principle is to continue Korean medicine treatment only after safety has been confirmed.
