ABSTRACT
<p>We present two cases of aged males with cold-induced colic successfully treated with tokishigyakukagoshuyushokyoto. The first case is a 74-year-old male with bilateral sciatic neuralgia, who had a history of right leg amputation following a traffic accident. The second case is an 80-year-old male with chills of the lower body, who has undergone excision of biliary duct cancer. Their physical status appeared normal to excessive by traditional medical examination, whereas the pulse and abdominal patterns are usually deficient in female cases in whom tokishigyakukagoshuyushokyoto is effective. The common features in our cases are age and history of trauma by injury or surgery. Although males are more tolerant of cold than females, advancing age and history of injury or surgery tend to cause cold-induced colic in males. The number of male cases that can be effectively treated with tokishigyakukagoshuyushokyoto is likely to increase in our aging society, and we conclude that it is important to consider the presence of cold when we examine male cases.</p>
