Background Skin diseases are a group of diseases that a larger population of the world is suffering from. Care for the skin is emphasised, as it is the largest organ of our body. In Ayurveda, all skin diseases are dealt with under Kushta. Vipadika Kusthta is one of the Kshudrakusta, which occurs due to Tridosha Prakopa. This causes Teevra Ve-dana, Pani Pada Sputana. In the modern system of medicine, Vipadika Kusta can be correlated to Palmo-plantar psoriasis. The national prevalence of Palmoplantar psoriasis is estimated to be 0.12%. The symptoms include elevated and thickened skin surface, scaling, itching, burning sensation, cracks and bleeding. Aim- To evaluate Bakula Patra Kashaya's efficacy in managing Palmoplantar psoriasis. Methodology- In the present case, a fe-male patient aged 74 years complained of itching, burning sensation, cracks, and scaling over bilateral soles and palms for three months. It was initially treated with Bakula Patra Kashaya for fifteen days, and Shodhana was given, which included Snehapana with Panchatiktaka Guggulu Grita for three days, Vishramakala where Sar-vanga Abhyanga with Yastimadhu Taila for three days in the absence of Swedana and on 7th day Virechana with 25gm Trivrut Lehya followed by 60ml Draksha Rasa was given. Results—Vipadika Kusta was assessed using subjective and objective criteria based on Lakshanas, and the score was noted before and after the treatment. The symptoms were significantly improved after the consumption of Bakula Patra Kashaya. Conclusion- Mimosops elengi Linn, belonging to the Sapotaceae family, is indicated in Twak Vikaras. The leaves contain active princi-ples like Quercetin, Hentriacontane, and steroidal saponin, which have wound-healing properties and might have helped heal cracks. Quercetin has anti-histaminic activity, which might have reduced itching.

Background : Oligohydramnios is a condition in which the amniotic fluid volume (AFV) is lower than usual for the gestational age. The volume of the amniotic fluid changes throughout pregnancy and increases linearly up to 34–36 weeks, which results in a reduced post-term gestation. This pattern facilitates fundal height measurements and pregnancy ultrasound analysis for the clinical evaluation of AFV. After the sonography has thoroughly scanned the belly, the largest vertical pockets of amniotic fluid can be seen that are free of the unborn child's body components or umbilical cord. Both single-fetal and multifetal gestations are considered to have oligohydramnios if the pocket is smaller than 2 cm. Objective : To assess the maternal and neonatal outcome of oligohydramnios among the ANC mothers. To associate the maternal and neonatal outcome of oligohydramnios among the ANC mothers with selected demographic variables. Research Design : Research Approach descriptive Research Approach. Setting of the study: the study was conducted at AVBR Hospital sawangi Meghe Wardha Population : ANC mothers. Sampling technique : simple random sampling .Sample size : 25. CONCLUSION : In order to analyse the maternal and newborn outcome of oligohydramnios among ANC moms, the researcher used a descriptive research design, which is examined in the section that follows the thorough analysis in this thesis. Under the headings of sepsis, perineal laceration, postpartum haemorrhage, premature membrane rupture, placental insufficiency, twin to twin transfusion syndrome, and cardiomyopathy, the mother outcome is broken down. Additionally, the neonatal outcome is broken down into the categories of low birth weight, APGAR scores at 1 and 5 minutes, reflexes, congenital anomalies, admission to the NICU, intrauterine growth restriction, birth asphyxia, foetal distress, delayed lung maturation, preterm birth, and stillbirth.The demographic characteristics did not significantly affect the maternal or neonatal outcome of oligohydramnios. As a result of the assessment and low levels of amniotic fluid found in this study, it is advised that all women increase their ANC visits in order to lower the risk of oligohydramnios in ANC mothers.
