Abstract
In this era, individuals are more prone to “Pradnyaparadha” regarding eating habits and lifestyle. There are many factors that lead to risk of disorders like Kamala which is one of the important diseases of Annavaha Srotasa with predominance of rasa dhatu and pitta dosha. The symptoms of Kamala may be due to various infective or systemic disorders. One of them is viral hepatitis which is most common in tropical conditions like India due to unhygienic practice of food and water intake. Jaundice also known as Icterus, is a yellowish pigmentation of skin, sclera and mucous membranes due to hyper bilirubinemia and deposition of bile pigments. In Ayurveda, Acharyas thoroughly described Kamla along with its cause, signs, symptoms, pathogenesis, complications and management too. Hepatocellular Jaundice can be correlated with Kamla Vyadhi. This case study is explained about effect of ayurvedic Chikitsa Siddhanta (Agnideeepana, Mridu Shodhana) in the management of Kamala
