Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and life sciences - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
In today‟s world everyone sees what you appear to be. Appearance is nothing but the skin. Skin diseases are affecting the mankind since time immortal. Skin is a mirror that reflects external and internal pathology, and is also the seat of complexion, which maintains beauty and personality. It provides individual identity in the society. In Ayurveda, almost all the skin disease are explained under Kushta-Rogadhikara and classified as 7 Maha Kushta and 11 Kshudra Kushta. The signs and symptoms of Eka-Kushta in Ayurveda are similar to that of Plaque- psoriasis explained in modern medicines. Chikitsa in Ayurveda is grouped under Shodhana and Shamana. Eka Kushta is a Kapha Vataja Vikara and Vamana Karma is said to be an effective tool in Kapha and Kapha Pradhan Tridoshaja Vyadhis. As Shamana Chikitsa is more effective after the Shodhana Chikitsa and the Bhrajaka Pitta is responsible for the normal texture of the skin, so the drugs that are capable of maintaining normalcy of Bhrajaka Pitta with properties such as Dipana, Pachana, Raktashodhana, Krimighna etc should be used for this purpose. For the above reasons, Vamana Karma and Nimbadi Churna with Patoladi Kwatha as Anupana can be taken as an effective remedy of Eka Kushta.
