Abstract

EFFECT OF LAJJALUMOOLATAILA ON DUSHTAVRANA W.S.R. TO VENOUS ULCER- A CASE STUDY

Sneha K. J.* and Srinivas Masalekar

ABSTRACT

Venous ulcer is the most common type of leg ulcer. The primary cause of venous ulcer is abnormal venous hypertension in the lower third of the leg. In Ayurveda this disease clinically simulates with Dushtavrana, a severely damaged condition marked by chronic features and lack of healing intent, thus making its management a challenging task. Emphasis on Vrana chikitsa (wound care) has been significant since the Samhita period, with detailed descriptions found in the Sushruta Samhita. The present study utilizes the properties of Lajjalumoolataila, as elaborated by Acharya Shodala in the book Gadanigraha, for its use in Vrana. Here is a case of a male patient of 39yrs presented with ulcer on lower 1/3rd of left lower limb on the medial malleolus with slough, foul smell, discoloration of surrounding skin for 11 months was treated with lajjalumoola taila in the form of ointment which was utilised for daily dressing. Result: the wound was completely healed within a span of 2 and half months. Conclusion: Lajjalu, with its bitter (tiktha) and astringent (kashaya) tastes, cooling (sheeta) nature, and anti-inflammatory (shophagna) and wound-healing (vranahara) properties, aids in wound healing by accelerating the process and preventing further suppuration (Paka).
