Abstract

 

The most common disorder which affects the movement of legs, particularly in  the most productive period of life i.e 30 to 50 years is the problem of back ache  which turns into Sciatica. The signs and symptoms of Sciatica can be correlated  to Ghridhrasi. Analgesics or surgery are the only remedies for this disease, which  may sometimes produce systemic side effects. Acharya Charak has described  Basti as the line of treatment in Ghridhrasi. So Kala Basti is selected. As  Nirgundi acts as Rujapha and Vatashleshma prashmani. So Nirgundi Ghan Vati is selected for Shaman drug. Kati Basti is selected to break local Samprapti, as it  is a type of Bahirparimarjin Chikitsa

Aim: To compare the effect of Kala Basti and Kati Basti along with Nirgundi ghana Vati in the management of Gridhrasi.  

Material and methods: For present study, 30 Patients of Gridhrasi were  randomly divided into 2 groups from the OPD & IPD of Govt. Akhandanand  Ayurved Hospital, Ahmedabad.  

Result: 13.33% of patients had Complete remission, Marked improvement was  found in 13.33% and 40% of the patients had Moderate improvement. 33.33% of  the patient showed Mild improvement.  

Conclusion: Kala Basti with Nirgundi taila as Anuvasana and Erandmool  Kwath in Niruha Basti followed by Shamana therapy with Nirgundi ghan Vati provided better results in Ghridrasi especially Vatakaphaj Ghridrasi.
