ROLE OF PRATIMARSHNASYA WITH ANU TAILAM IN STRESS EXACERBATED ACNE VULGARIS (MUKHDUSHIKA) - A CASE STUDY

Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda & Alternative Medicine - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

We live in a world over-runned by stress. The unforgiving pace and complexity of modern life has greatly challenged our ability to live healthily and fully in the present moment. As a result, we can witness the intricate relationship between stress and skin conditions. Recent clinical observations also link psychological stress to the onset or aggravation of multiple skin diseases such as eczema, psoriasis, acne vulgaris, seborrheic dermatitis, vitiligo and so on. In classical texts of Ayurveda, various measures of detoxification have been mentioned amongst which “The Panchkarmas” have said to be highly effective in preventing as well as curing several diseases. Nasya(nasal administration of drug) is considered as a gateway to access & cure the diseases occurring above the collar bone. Also Acharya Vagbhata has mentioned Nasya therapy in the line of treatment of mukhdushika i.e. acne vulgaris. Pratimarsh Nasya-a type of Nasya is indicated as a daily regimen to maintain healthy nasal passage by Acharya Charaka. Anutailam is a classical ayurvedic preparation known for its Stroto-Shodhankarya which helps to open deeper channels and as a result lower stress levels and thus stress exacerbated acne vulgaris. Thus, a single case study will be analysed here to study the role of Pratimarsh Nasya with Anutailam in stress exacerbated acne vulgaris.
