Q I have severe chronic headaches and eye strain — does Gongjindan help with these symptoms too?
A Chronic headaches and eye strain caused by liver qi stagnation are one of the main indications for Gongjindan. Since the liver governs the eyes and oversees overall qi-blood circulation, releasing liver qi often improves headaches and eye strain together.
Detailed Answer
In Korean medicine, the liver stores blood and governs the eyes. When liver qi becomes stagnant, headaches (especially tightness in the temples and back of the head) and eye strain or redness often appear together. This pattern is often caused by overwork, stress, and drinking, matching well with Gongjindan's liver-qi-opening effect.
Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective
When liver qi stagnation resolves with Gongjindan, reduced headache frequency, less eye strain, and restored concentration often occur together. If you have severe headaches and eye strain, please mention it during your visit — we'll factor it into the prescription accordingly.
