Brief Summary
|
In modern science practices there is symptomatic treatment for karnasrava (diffuse otitis externa) includes ear toileting followed by medicated wicks, antibiotics and analgesics. Where as in Ayurveda there are many formulations like Karnapoorana, Karnadhoopan, Karnaprakshalan internal medications has been explained. Various drugs for karnasrava have been explored scientifically, Panchvalkal taila karnapoorana was not studied yet. Hence hoping this study contributes further to public health. I have decided to use Panchvalkal taila karnapoorana in management of karnasrava referred from Vangsen Samhita. |
