Q I want to manage IBD in Dong-gu, Incheon. How should I combine Korean medicine clinic treatment with internal medicine treatment?
A The safest approach is to maintain your current treatment at the internal medicine clinic while the Korean medicine clinic plays a supportive role in strengthening remission, recovering from fatigue, and regenerating the intestinal mucosa. It is important to honestly tell both places about the treatment you receive elsewhere.
Detailed Answer
For IBD, it is realistic to use the internal medicine and Korean medicine clinics as a collaborative system over the long term. During worsening, internal medicine treatment becomes the mainstay, and during remission maintenance, Korean medicine treatment adds intestinal mucosal recovery, immune stabilization, and whole-body energy tonification. For safety, you must transparently share your medications and treatment details with both clinics.
