Ever since the evolution of the species Homo sapiens, anal problems have been a source of constant anxiety. Contrarily there seems to be an increasing incidence of the commonest of all anal disease, i.e. Arshas, a kind of disease which is very unkind towards mankind. Ayurvedic literatures have described Arshas as Mahagada and can be compared to Haemorrhoids in modern medicine. The various therapies show that there is no universally acceptable technique in the management of Haemorrhoids and also these have many side effects and demerits. Pratisaraneeya Kshara the alkaline group of medicinal substances has been emphasized throughout the classical literature for Arshas, as a substitute for surgical procedure and can be used safely in patients who are afraid of surgery, old and weak also. This work includes preparation of Apamarga and Palasha Pratisaraneeya Ksharas; evaluation of the efficacy of Apamarga and Palasha Pratisaraneeya Kshara and comparing the results in the management of Arshas. The effects of Apamarga Pratisaraneeya Kshara and Palasha Pratisaraneeya Kshara were evaluated clinically in 30 patients, 15 in each group randomly divided. The study concluded that in patients suffering from Arshas both Apamarga Pratisaraneeya Kshara and Palasha Pratisaraneeya Kshara showed statistically highly significant results (p < 0.001) in terms of the improvement in Mass per rectum, Pain and Size of pilemass and 80% of the patients treated with Apamarga Pratisaraneeya Kshara got complete remission from the disease, while with Palasha Pratisaraneeya Kshara 46.7% patients showed complete remission. Though there won’t many differences statistically, the comparison of individual criteria ‘s percentage and the relief obtained, Apamarga Pratisaraneeya Kshara showed an upper hand in managing the Arshas.

Menstruation is the end point of series of events which begin in the cerebral cortex and hypothalamus and ends at the uterus in the hypothalamic pituitary –ovarian uterine axis. Any break in this axis creates Menstrual Problems. PCOS is one such condition associated with abnormal gonadotropic secretion which in turn lead to menstrual irregularity acne and hirsutism- Its prevalence ranging from 2.2% to 26% with age ranging from 18-45 years. In modern science PCOS is managed by down regulating HPO axis using Hormonal Pills which have their own side effects. Therefore complete, comprehensive and holistic approach towards its understanding & treatment is the need of the age. Ayurveda has no direct correlation to PCOS. There are similar condition acc to symptoms are explained under the concept of Pushpaghni, Jathaharini. Here under PCOS w.s.r. to Oligomenorrhoea, interval between menses, duration of flow, amount of flow and other symptoms like pain are considered. The effect of Anjani vati (Trial drug) is compared with Krishna Tila Kalka (Control Drug) in two groups containing 30 patients each.

Ayurveda is the science of life which deals with the prevention and cure of diseases. From the first breath of newly born till the last breath i.e, Shwasochhwasa Kriya is the sign of life. Any disturbance in this process leads to Shwasa Roga. Tamaka Shwasa is one of the important diseases of such disturbance. Shwasa is a Kapha-Vataja disease which is originated from Pittasthana. Tamaka Shwasa is very much similar to bronchial asthma in modern medicine which is a chronic disease of multifactorial origin. Ayurveda describes two type of management of all disease i.e. Shodhana and Shamana Chikitsa. In present scenario Panchakarma therapy is the best way to effectively and safely manage the condition without any specific side effects. It is one of the most effective and complete therapy in the management of the chronic disease such as Tamaka Shwasa (Bronchial Asthma). In Ayurvedic classics both Vamana and Virechana have been described specifically in the management of Tamaka Shwasa. Considering the Ayurvedic concept of treatment of Tamaka Shwasa, in present study we have used Virechana therapy along with certain herbal preparation. In this study we concluded that the cases who were treated with herbal preparation along with Virechana got better relief than herbal preparation alone.

Dushta Vrana is a common and frequently encountered problem faced in surgical practice. The presence of Dushta Vrana worsens the condition of the patient with different complications and may become fatal. Local factors on wound like slough, infection and foreign body, affect the normal process of healing. A healthy wound in a normal body heals earlier with a minimum scar as compared to a contaminated wound. Therefore in this study all the efforts are made to make a Dushta Vrana into a Shuddha Vrana. Once the Vrana becomes Shuddha, Ropana of the Vrana will start. The objective of the study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Jatyadi Taila and Jatyadi Ghrita in Dushta Vrana. Clinically diagnosed 60 Patients of Dushta Vrana were randomly divided into two groups, each consisting of 30 Patients. Group A were treated with the Jatyadi Taila and Group B was treated by Jatyadi Ghrita. The results observed was based on the relief obtained on the subjective and objective parameters taken for consideration for this study viz, size of ulcer, discharge, smell, pain, burning sensation, itching and granulation were found significant (P Lass Than 0.05). On the basis of assessment criteria and overall result of treatment, the patients of Jatyadi Taila group showed better results when compared to Jatyadi Ghrita group. Even though statistically there is no much significant difference between the two groups, but by seeing the effect on individual parameters (subjective and objective) and over all response, Jatyadi Taila seems to be effective when compared to Jatyadi Ghrita. It is having more Ropana qualities when compared to Shodhana.
