In this report, we present a case in which long‐term swelling and pain because of an ankle sprain were successfully treated with the traditional Japanese herbal (Kampo) medicine Jidabokuippo. Jidabokuippo was created in Japan and has been used to treat swelling and pain associated with trauma. A 44‐year‐old woman sprained her right ankle and received the standard treatments including icing and immobilization for three weeks. However, the swelling, redness, and pain of her ankle continued for two months after the treatments. After initiating Jidabokuippo, her pain and swelling were promptly improved. This suggests that Jidabokuippo is a potentially promising pharmacotherapy for patients with ankle sprain which has not recovered smoothly. It is said that Jidabokuippo can be prescribed simply referring to pain and swelling of the affected areas; therefore, it should be considered as a treatment for trauma patients with long‐term swelling and pain.
