Brief Summary
|
Sandhigata Vata is one of the commonest joint disorders, broadly
described under Vata Vyadhi which effect Musculo-skeletal system of the
body. Sandhigata Vata is a disease of Sandhi (joint) with
symptoms of Sandhi Shoola, Sandhi Shotha, Vedana during Akunchana, Prasarana and in a later stage Hanti Sandhigatah.When Greeva Pradesh is affected, it
termed as Greeva Sandhigata Vata or Cervical Spondylosis. Acharya Sushruta has mentioned Agnikarma
having Vata-kaphahara property like Ushna, Sukshma, Ashukari Guna.
So, it has been chosen to manage Sandhigata Vata. As Agnikarma
may be effectively helpful to relieve the pain and muscle spasm instantly so it
is used to manage cervical spondylosis. Rasnadi
Guggulu is selected from the yogratnakar text
where it is mentioned in the treatment of Sandhigata Vata. AIMS
AND OBJECTIVE
·
To compare the effect of Agnikarma
and Rasnadi Guggulu in the management of cervical spondylosis.
· To decrease the
intensity of pain and stiffness so that the patient can do his routine work
comfortably. |
