Brief Summary   A comparative add on superiority trial is planned in non healing ulcers with special reference to neurological ulcers to compare the topical application of vranaropana taila against jatyadi taila. Conventionally antibiotics are used for treating chronic ulcers, but antibiotic resistance is a biggest challenge now a days. At the same time plant derived antibiotics acts predominantly by breaking the cell wall and cell membrane of microbes which ultimately leads to their death.Even though some formulations are being used for treating chronic ulcers, there are some medicines that are yet to be explored. Here an attempt is made to explore Vranaropana taila  as topical application in chronic ulcer. The outcome measurements will be done by using some assessment criteria like granulation tissue, epithelialisation, drainage amount etc.
