Effect of Jatyadi Ghrit on Dusht Vrana Management: A Case Study

Abstract

Wound healing has been described throughout the history of Ayurveda. Our ancient Acharyas knew that proper wound debridement is the fundamental step in wound healing process. The Dushta vrana becomes even more complicated and difficult to manage if body’s normal biological response to fight wounds becomes impaired. Ancient Acharyas propounded, practiced and described a number of drugs and procedures for vrana shodhana, vrana ropan, kusthghan, jantughana, vranapachan, vedanosthapan, putihar, raktaprasadan, raktashodhan. Jatyadi ghrit is described by Acharya Sharangdhara in Sarangdhara Samhita, madhyam kahnda9/58-60 for marmashrita vrana (ulcer present over the vital parts), kledi vrana (wound suppuration), gambhir vrana (deep seated wound), non-healing ulcers, boils, insect bites etc. This case study shows enthusiastic results of jatyadi ghrit on chronic ulcer in a 98 years old lady.
