Brief Summary
|
Superficial
dermatophytosis of the skin in the form of Tinea corporis (Quba) is a very common infection seen in clinical practice. According to a
World Health Organization survey on the prevalence of dermatophyte infection it
was found that 20% of people presenting for clinical advice are suffering from
cutaneous fungal infections worldwide.Despite the increasing prevalence of cutaneous dermatophytosis
across the world, and especially in tropics, research in this area has often
been neglected. Unani
Medicine lacks evidence based anti fungal therapy for dermatophytosis. Although
there are formulations which are indicated and tested by for centuries. On the
basis of these incidence, treatment failure (especially in chronic infection)
and decreased quality of life due to infection, it is need of hours to conduct
a trial based on Unani Medicine. Hence, in order to validate and provide effective
management of Quba (Tinea Corporis), the present study entitled “Efficacy of Majoon
Ushba and topical application of Marham
Raal in Quba (Tinea Corporis) – A Randomized Standard Controlled Study†has been designed |
