Brief Summary   While working in outpatient section, it is noticed there are more patients with Abhyantara Arsha. In modern medicine for Internal Haemorrhoids sclerotherapy, cryosurgery, rubber band ligation is used but, it needs high cost sophisticated instruments. Even though they have there own disadvantages in such conditions the alternative management for Abhyantara Arsha is Kshara karma procedure that will give relief. Hence the purpose of current study is to evaluate the efficacy of Nimba Kshara Pratisarana in The Management of Abhyantara Arsha.
