Varicose vein of the lower limbs is one of such clinical condition that hampers the beauty of the legs. It is a very common condition, affecting up to three in 10 adults. Varicose veins affect up to 25% of women and 15% of men. By the age of 50, nearly 40% of women and 20% of men have significant vascular problems. The lifestyle changes, obesity, occupational pattern of prolonged standing and pregnancy are considered to be significantly contributing to this situation. Siravyadha, which is one among the types of Sasastra Rak-tamokashana is mentioned in the treatment of Sirajagranthi in our classics. It is considered as Ardha Chikitsa of Shalyatantra and is said to provide immediate results. Udvartana which is having Vatakapha-hara Twakprasadana and Siramukhavivechana property is said to be effective in Sirajagranthi. Also, the procedure is done in Pratiloma (upward) direction which results in Dridikarana of angas by toning them and relieves the symptoms of varicose vein. Hence an effort was made to evaluate the effect of Sira-vyadha by Vrihimukha Sastra and Udvartana with Kolakulathadi Churna in the management of Sira-jagranthi (varicose vein), this study was planned with the following aims. Objective: A detailed study on Sirajagranthi and its Management. To study the effect of Udvartana with Siravyadha in Sirajagranthi (varicose veins). To study the effect of Siravyadha in Sirajagranthi (varicose veins)., To compare the effi-cacy of both in Sirajagranthi (varicose veins). Method: The outcome of the study is evaluated clinically on a minimum of 60 patients with Sirajagranthi, divides 2 groups A and B. Group A received Udvartana for 7days and then Siravyadha on 8th day. Group B received Siravyadha for 1 day and followed by Pathya for 7days.The duration of study was 28days in both the groups and observations were made on be-fore and after the treatment (0th, 8th and 28th day). Data obtained was statistically analysed and interpreted. Results: The results were assessed based on the relief obtained to the subjective and objective parameters and was taken for consideration for the study and were found statistically significant on all the parameters (p<0.05). Conclusion: From the study it is evident that effectiveness of Udvartana along with Siravyadha is more significant in reducing the signs and symptoms of Sirajagranthi.

Introduction The objective of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of patients with varicose veins managed in the telemedicine clinic and traditional clinic. Methods Retrospective analysis of all vein procedures in the institutional Vascular Quality Initiative Varicose Vein Registry (VQI VVR) was performed from January 2015 to August 2017. Patients were divided into two groups: Telemedicine versus Traditional Clinic. Comparison data included patient demographics, past medical history, clinical outcomes, patient-reported outcomes and postoperative complications. Statistical testing included chi-square test for categorical variables and student t-test for continuous variables using the SPSS statistical software. Results A total of 1034 varicose vein procedures were performed during the 31-month study period. There were 75 virtual encounters in the Telemedicine Clinic (Group A) and 959 face-to-face encounters in the Traditional Clinic (Group B). Most of the demographics characteristics were clinically similar in both groups. Comparing Group A and Group B, there were no differences in age, sex, race and body mass index. Early 3-month follow up was 100% in Group A and 90.7% in Group B. Both groups had low complication rates of haematoma (1.3% vs 0.3%, p = 0.884), paraesthesia (1.3% vs 0.6%, p = 0.767) and recanalisation (1.3% vs 4.0%, p = 0.383) during the early follow up period. Discussion Synchronous virtual visits for patient care are feasible for the management of chronic venous disease. Patients with varicose veins who choose to undergo telemedicine evaluations have similar pre-operative demographics, clinical classification and patient outcomes.

PIVD is the protrusion from the nucleus pulposus through the rent within the annulus fibrosis. L4-L5, L5-S1 discs are most commonly affected in 95 percent of lumbar disc herniation. As we grow older the discs which are present in our vertebral column, become less flexible and begin to harden, making it more susceptible to tears. The herniated disc may be caused by a single undue strain or injury. However, as disc degeneration progresses with age, a few people may suffer herniated discs from more minor activities or twists. The patient was a 38-year-old female who presented with a complaint of pain in the neck & back which was 8 on Vas, pain in both limbs ( upper & lower) which was 7 on Vas, Numbness present in Upper limb fingers, Stiffness in all joints along with pedal edema. The patient also had a varicose vein on both lower limbs grade 3. She was admitted to the hospital because she was not able to even get up from the bed due to pain. She was working in a mess for 8 years the work included prolonged standing, bending down, lifting heavy weights, and sitting on the floor for a long period. Due to pain, she was not able to continue her work. Ayurvedic treatment along with physiotherapy treatment was going on. The patient had the same complaints before 12 months she was relieved by physiotherapy. The patient had three laser sessions done for a varicose vein but was not relieved before 1 year. According to the clinical presentation and Radiological findings the patient was diagnosed with PIVD. This case study shows that regular exercise, traction, back strengthening exercise, use of modalities such as IFT, and following proper ergonomics would reduce the symptoms associated with PIVD and varicose veins

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of preoperative compression hosiery in reducing blood loss during surgery for varicose veins and improving cosmetic results. Setting: Vascular Surgical Unit, Dudley Group of Hospitals NHS Trust, West Midlands, UK. Design: Randomized, single-blind, prospective, controlled trial. Patients: Thirty-nine patients with varicose veins in 50 legs. Intervention: Group A, the control group ( n = 19), were given compression stockings on the first postoperative day after the bandages were removed. Group B, the study group ( n = 20), used compression stocking 24 h before surgery as well as in the postoperative period. The surgical procedure was standardized. Main outcome measures: Blood loss, weight of veins removed, operation time and cosmetic result after 6 weeks. Results: In group B, patients were noted to have reduced blood loss, a shorter operation time and a greater weight of avulsed veins. Poor cosmetic results were recorded in group A. Conclusions: Preoperative emptying of veins by using a compression stocking is useful in reducing blood loss and improving the cosmetic result after routine varicose vein surgery.

Gridhrasi is a Vyadhi characterized by Stambha (stiffness), Ruk (pain), Toda (pricking pain), Spandana (twitching) etc. Though it is of two types – Vataja and Vatakaphaja, Vata being the prime cause for this condition has to be tackled to gain relief. Gridhrasi, according to its signs and symptoms can be compared to sciatica in modern medical science which is a painful condition in which pain commences from the buttock and radiates into the lower extremity along its posterior or lateral aspect, more or less comprising of the area of distribution of the sciatic nerve. Thus, this study was taken up to evaluate the efficacy of Rasona taila and Gandharvahastadi eranda taila in the management of Gridhrasi (Sciatica). Methods: In the present study, 60 subjects diagnosed with Gridhrasi were randomly selected and assigned into two equal groups Group A and Group B comprising 30 subjects each. Subjects of Group A received Rasona taila 10ml orally in morning before food and subjects of Group B received Gandharvahastadi eranda taila 10 ml orally in morning before food, both for duration of 21 days. The data obtained in both the groups were recorded, tabulated and statistically analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. Results: After obtaining all the necessary data, the results were formulated by applying suitable statistical tests. Group A showed better results statistically when compared to Group B. Conclusion: Rasona taila has better effects than Gandharvahastadi eranda taila both clinically and statistically in reducing the signs and symptoms of Gridhrasi.
