Abstract: Rosacea is a common skin disorder that predominately affects fair skin people. More then10 million cases per year are found in the India. It usually presents with erythema, telangiectasia, and papulo-pustular lesions on the cheeks chin and central forehead and usually triggered by sun exposure. It is generally affects facial skin and less commonly may involve the neck and chest, it may also happen at non-facial sites. It has characterized in its early on phases by erythema (flushing and redness) on the central face and across the cheeks, nose or forehead. Rosacea is not mentioned specifically in any Ayurveda text. According to description of sign & symptoms of rosacea in modern science, it is resemble as a type of Pitta Dusht Raktaj Vyadhi according to Ayurveda science. Based on these signs and symptoms, according to Ayurveda Acharya this disease is caused by Pitta Dushta Rakta. Ayurveda also implements broad line of management of skin disorders like medicinal and para-surgical approach. Acharya Sushruta clearly mentioned that if all conservative management fails then the disease should consider as blood vitiated disease and Raktamokshana is to consider as choice of treatment.

Objective: To better understand melasma, a review of its etiologic factors, classification, pathogenesis, and treatment was undertaken. Methods: Articles discussing the above aspects of melasma were used to demonstrate what is currently known about the disease and how to treat it. Results: Melasma is associated with many etiologic factors, most importantly, sun exposure. It occurs in three distributions and has four reported patterns of pigmentation. Among the many differences between melasma and normal skin, melasma skin contains increased melanin, melanocytes, and melanosomes, as well as increased synthesis of tyrosinase. Its pathogenesis remains largely unknown. Treatment consists of phenolic and nonphenolic depigmenting agents, chemical peels, lasers, and dermabrasion. Conclusion: Melasma is a common skin disorder. Although melasma has been studied, its pathogenesis remains largely unknown and its treatment is still met with difficulty. Randomized controlled trials involving larger numbers of patients and comparing treatments, as well as studying combination therapies, would be beneficial.

Dermatological Disorders

Abstract Sun-related skin disorders are rated, along with all dermatological disorders, using Chapter 8, The Skin, in the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides) and are based on three factors: the presence of a skin disorder (signs and symptoms); need for treatment; and interference with activities of daily living (ADL). This Case Presentation illustrates some of the challenges that an evaluator new to the rating process may encounter and clarifies that precautionary guidance to reduce sun exposure is not equivalent to interference in ADL and the assignment of impairment. The patient has been a firefighter since 1986, previously worked in construction, lives in Southern California, and surfed recreationally until six or seven years ago. He presents with new lesions of his skin following sun exposure and has been followed by his primary care physician and his dermatologist regarding his basal cell carcinoma and cryosurgeries to treat actinic keratoses. The evaluator determines class 3, 25% impairment, which precludes ADL in the midday sun. The authors note two immediate red flags: Misnaming the AMA Guides is a typical beginner's error, and the evaluation provides no reference to specific criteria or tables even though the State of California uses the fifth edition to rate workers’ compensation cases.

The Relationship

Melasma is one of the most common skin problems, because it causes facial skin disorders as well as a decrease in the confidence of sufferers, in the form of uneven hyperpigmentation macules which are generally symmetrical. The exact incidence of melasma is still unknown, including non-communicable diseases which are one of the occupational diseases. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the duration of sun exposure with the incidence of melasma in female scavengers in the final dumpsite of Telaga Punggur Batam City. This study was an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design, which was conducted in December 2019. Data was taken from respondents to fill in the questionnaire, including sunlight. Sample collection using sloven formula with random sampling techniques of 60 respondents. This study shows that respondents who suffer from melasma are 39 respondents (65.0%), while respondents who do not suffer from melasma are 21 respondents (35.5%). Respondents who were exposed to sunlight <3 hours / day were 20 respondents (33.3%), while those who were exposed> 3 hours / day were 40 respondents (66.7%). With statistical tests using chi-square, there is a significant relationship between the duration of sun exposure with the incidence of melasma in scavenger women with a p-value = 0.001 (p <0.05). RR = 7.429, with this value it can be interpreted that the length of sun exposure has a risk of 7 times for the occurrence of melasma. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between the length of sun exposure and the incidence of melasma.

Abhishyanda is one of the Sarvagata Vyadhi mentioned by Acharya Sushruta. In modern science, signs and symptoms of Netrabhishyanda may be correlated with conjunctivitis, which is the inflammatory condition of conjunctiva. Kavala Dharana, Dhumrapana, Aschyotana, Sechana Putapaka etc. are various suggested regimens in Ayurvedic texts for the treatment of Netrabhishyanda. Considering this effectiveness of Palasha as mentioned by Acharya Sushruta, it is planned to study the use of Palasha Mula Arka Aschyotana in Pittaja Netrabhishyanda. 60 patients having classical signs and symptoms of Pittaja Abhishyanda (Acute Bacterial Conjunctivitis) as per Ayurvedic and modern texts were selected for the study. After completion of therapy, mean Conjunctival hyperemia was reduced to 0.2167 ± 0.4086 in Control and 0.5667 ± 0.5040 in Trial Group. Palasha Mula Arka was found effective in reduction in conjunctival hyperemia, watering and the number of culture colonies, it was also found effective in burning sensation, discharge, foreign body sensation and photophobia.

Agni is one of most powerful transformative principles of Ayurveda. Deranged Agni leads to the formation of Ama. Ama is responsible for causing most of the diseases in human beings. The disease produced, clinically mani- fests itself in form of various signs and symptoms. These signs and symptoms are the principal tools for a physi- cian to diagnose the disease and treat it promptly. On the basis of these symptoms, all diseases can be classified in Samavastha and Niramavastha. If an objective Parameter that could measure the severity of Ama is searched, it will prove to be an advantage for the physician, who could then catch the cause (Ama) and save patients from this harmful disease entity. A definite line of treatment of Ama can be planned after considering the symptoms and severity of the condition. Keeping this approach, the review is carried out to understand Ama from Ayurvedic and Modern perspectives. After reviewing it can be concluded that Ama has no direct correlation in modern science but can best be equated to 'toxins'. They may be endotoxins like enzymes, hormones, catalysts, etc. when these are unable to function properly or entirely, different metabolites are formed which are not acquired by the body. On further process these go on accumulating in different systems, affecting the normal mechanism of that respective system or exotoxins produced by some bacteria or micro-organism when they enter into the body.

Ayurveda, The science of life, since its origin is serving the mankind throughout in health & disease state of life. Shalakyatantra, one of its specialized branch deals with the science of Ophthalmology, Otorhinolaryngology, Orodental surgery & Head; was contributed and developed by Rajrishi Nimi, the King of Videha, who was a colleague of Atreya, Punarvasu, Dhanwantri, Bharadwaja, Kashyapa etc. The available literature related to this speciality is reproduced from original text of Nimitantra in Uttartantra of Sushruta samhita. Correlation of Tritiya Patalagata kach with modern science is varies according to different authors, but according to some it can be correlated with different stages of senile immature cataract after considering the signs and symptoms and histological changes in the lens.One of the oldest concepts is that precipitation, denaturation, coagulation or agglutination of soluble lens protein is responsible for lens opacification. Accordingly after considering signs and  symptoms, here correlating Kaphaja kach with Senile Immature Cataract. Senile immature Cataract is also called as age related Cataract. It is one of the major causes for the age related visual impairment and blindness. It affects 11.5- to 15.5 million persons worldwide. At certain age of life, opacification of lens starts in everyone’s eye which leads to gradual diminished vision or loss of vision. which means gradual opacification leads to cataract. According to modern science, senile immature cataract can be correlated with kaphaja kach. In modern science surgery is the only treatment available in cataract. In Ayurveda our Acharyas have mentioned various procedures like anjana, aschotana, pariseka, tarpana to delay kach or arrest the procedure of opacification. which can be useful in senile immature cataract.
