Panchkarma treatments play an important role in managing Gridhrasi (sciatica) according to Ayurveda. Snehana (oleation), swedana (sweating), various types of basti (medicated enemas), and raktamokshana (bloodletting) are recommended. These treatments help eliminate excess vata dosha and ama (toxins) from the channels, relieve pain and stiffness, and restore normal movement. Raktamokshana in particular gives quick relief from pain when other treatments are not effective.
This document discusses a clinical study on the Ayurvedic treatment of occupational disorders using Swalparasona Pinda (internal medicine) and Mahamasha taila Nasya (nasal administration of oil) for brachial neuritis, which resembles the Ayurvedic condition of Viswachi.

Results showed significant reduction in pain levels and functional disability, with 80% of patients experiencing marked relief of symptoms.

This condition makes raising of the affected leg difficult.
Sandhivata, or joint pain caused by vitiated vata, has several etiological factors like injury, excess physical activity, dietary indiscretions, and emotional disturbances. The disease is characterized by pain, swelling, crepitus, and restricted painful movement in the affected joint. Treatment focuses on pacifying vata through oleation therapies, oral medications like guggulu and rasayana, and physical therapies. Diet and lifestyle modifications include avoiding aggravating foods and activities while encouraging pain-relieving ones.
The document provides information on the topic of Kustha (skin disorders) in Ayurveda. It begins with objectives of the presentation and then defines Kustha based on nirukti. It describes various nidanas (causes), samprapti (pathogenesis), poorvarupa (premonitory symptoms), classification into 7 mahakusthas and 11 kshudrakusthas. It then provides detailed lakshanas (symptoms) of each of the 7 mahakusthas. The document aims to educate students on the key concepts of Kustha according to Ayurvedic principles.

have the following benefits
during the procedure. The
steam will be
● अनृजु गामी (will not flow
out straight)
