Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
The main aim of this special study is to observe the relation between Amavat and Asthivah strotas dushti according to theoretical and practical grounds. In this study 30 patients of diagnosed Amavat Vyadhi are selected according to Hetu causes and lakshnas symptoms described in Samhita Granthas. X-ray of the affected joint is carried out in all the patients. The similarity between etiological factors and symptoms of Amavat vyadhi and Asthivah strotas dushti were studied and the relation between them is observed and noted with the help of X-ray examination. In the age group of 30-60 years 76 % patients of Amavat were found. Out of 30 patients 86 % patients were female and 14 % patients were male. Similarity of etiological factors between Amavat and Asthivah strotas is 83 % and symptoms were noted 100 %. There are more female patients than males. As per texts and samprapti, the disease Amavat belongs to Rasvah strotas but above findings suggests that there is strong involvement of Asthivah strotas and Asthivah strotas should be considered in the management of Amavat to avoid joint deformities and other complications related to bones.
