Brief Summary   In the previous research done a significant result has been observed in treating the sign and the symptoms of the otomycosis using different Ayurvedic treatment modalities. Even after the extensive research work has been carried out, Otomycosis is still a challenging disease and remains one of the most established risk factor for the serious complications such as otorrhoea, tympanic perforations and deafness. Hence it is decided to continue the study on otomycosis so as to prove the efficacy of new Ayurvedic intervention and to study it on large population so as to generate more data to evaluate the efficacy of new Ayurveda drug in treating the Otomycosis
