Chronic toxicity of lead, its chemical component and its metabolites has been on rapid growth, due to utilizations and exposures of leads or its chemical component from natural sources such as water and soil, lead pipes, industrial sources and contaminated air, dust, food, leadpaints, vermilion etc. The persistent exposure of lead for prolong period cause accumulation of lead within bone, liver, and produces toxic blood. It has been clinically manifested that the chronic lead poison vitiation of vata predominance and vata- pitta occasionally occur along with rasvaha, pran- vaha, vatavaha, purish-vaha, mutr-vahavikriti. Though the clinical manifestation shows the vata-dosha and vatavahasrotasvikrati predominantly but it may be produced due to aavran of dushivisha in the form of lead. Hence it is need to removed first aavaran then the vatavyadhiis to be treated. Petisweda, vamana and virechna may plays a major role to remove out this dushivishajanayaaavran, the yogabasti may play a major role to control and cure the vatavyadhi produced by lead along with other symptomatic management. Thus Ayurveda may play a major role to manage the chronic lead toxicity.
