Brief Summary          There are various Galaroga’s explained by different Acharya’s among which is Galagraha is explained by Acharya Charaka.According to Acharya Charaka, kapha Dosha get aggravated due to different Hetusevana and it gets localised inside Gala region and produces local oedema.Acharya Kashyapa has given the symptoms of Galagraha like Jwara, Aruchi, Mukhastrava, and difficulty in breathing.Galaroga’s means Gala;throat region (pharynx and larynx).i.e. Galaroga’s occur at respiratory pathway therefore there is risk of obstruction in respiration. Hence they should be treated as soon they occur. As pharynx is common passage in both process of respiration and digestion and that’s why diseases of this throat region should be treated immediately to avoid further complication like pneumonia, sinusitis etc),
        Pharyngitis (ICD Code 10-J02.9) is the inflammation of mucus membrane of oropharynx. It occurs due to varied etiological factors like viral, bacterial, fungal, and allergic factors such as mold, pollen, smoke, air, food, animal hairs, others. Discomfort in throat, some malaise and low-grade fever are seen. Pharynx in this region shows erythema.According to modern point of view antibiotics, analgesics, warm saline gargles are used for treating pharyngitis. But recurrent use of antibiotics, analgesics may cause resistance to medicines, hence the purpose of this study is to find permanent solution by Ayurvedic formulations.Vati means medicine in the tablet form, made up of combinations of various fine Ayurvedic Churna according to their properties.Vati Dharana means Vati kept in mouth for Dharana Karma, Vati is kept in mouth then it will mix with the saliva and ultimately it will help in reducing local symptoms like congestion, pain quickly.
