Primary knee osteoarthritis is an extremely common cause of disability of lower extremities which results due to breakdown and destruction of joint tissues. The present study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of Majoon Yahya bin Khalid and local application of Roghan Darchini in management of Primary Knee Osteoarthritis. It was an open label evaluation study for the duration of 30 days carried out on 30 patients aged between 35 to 60 years at NIUM hospital, Bengaluru, from April 2014 to Feb 2015. After taking written voluntary informed consent, test drugs Majoon Yahya bin Khalid was given 9 gm orally twice a day, and Roghan Darchini 2-3 ml for local application on the affected knee joints once a day. Subjective as well as objective parameters were evaluated at baseline, 15th and 30th day. The results were analyzed using paired proportion and paired student t tests. Significant improvement was observed in subjective parameters of joint pain and restriction of movements with p <0.001. All the five subscales of objective parameter (Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score) were found to be highly significant with p <0.001. The study revealed that the test drugs are effective and safe in management of primary knee osteoarthritis.

Sandhigata Vata is a disease associated with aging. This particular form of Vatavyadhi is mostly found in Vriddhavastha as a result of Margavarodha, which restricts daily tasks like dressing, walking, taking a bath, and so on, leaving patients incapacitated or handicapped. Treatment options include NSAIDs, calcium supplements, and finally joint replacement. In this case, arthroplasty was advised due to bilateral osteoarthritis in the knees. Pain, edema, range of motion, and walking distance all improved significantly once the therapy was completed. Internal medicine, Janu Pizhichil, and Panchtikta Ksheer Basti therapy were used to successfully treat the patient. Case: A 65 years old male patient was clinically diagnosed as a case of Sandhivata presented with the following chief complaints from 1 month. It was associated with swelling in B/L knee joint with pain, tingling sensation in right unilateral knee joint. Management: Patient was treated with Janu Pizhichil (oil bath for knee joint), Panchtikta Ksheer Basti (medicated enema) and internal medication like Panchatikta Ghrit Guggulu. Conclusion: It can be concluded that use of Baahyaparimarjan Chikitsa (classical external Ayurvedic treatment) in the background of accurate diagnosis can cure the patients suffering from osteoarthritis also no osteoporotic changes were observed in 1 month. Being safe, devoid of adverse effects, ayurvedic management is the only option to avoid painful intervals, advancement of the disease and repeated use NSAIDs.

Background: Cerebrovascular complaint is the third most common cause of death in high-income countries after cancers and ischemic heart complaint and the most common cause of severe physical disability. In India, studies estimate that prevalence of stroke varies from 116 to 163 per population. According to ICMR, stroke is the 4th leading cause of death and the 5th leading cause of disability acclimated lifetime (DALY). Stroke is the most common clinical incarnation of Cerebrovascularcomplaint and results in occurrences of brain dysfunction due to focal ischemia or Haemorrhage. Subarachnoid Haemorrhage (SAH) and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) will be bandied independently since their pathophysiology, clinical instantiations, and operation are distinct from a stroke. Material &Methods: An 83 years old male K/ H/ O HTNwas diagnosed with an AvaranajanyaPakshaghata with a clinical point. There was a loss of function in the left lower and upper limbs. He was not able to stand without proper support. He was having weakness of the left upper and lower limbs. He was treated with Shaman Chikitsa followed by ShodhanChikitsa as SarvanagaAbhyanga, Marsha Nasya, ShashtiShaliPindaSwedana, Shirodhara, AnuvasanaBasti, and NiruhaBasti for 15 days. Result: The patient was assessed with gold standard stroke parameters, i.e., Barthel Index & National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIH-SS), in which scores were turned from 15 & 21 to 65 & 9, respectively. Moreover, significant changes and improvements were observed in clinical features OF Pakshaghata before and after treatment. Conclusion: In this case, there is an involvement of Aama as an Avarana on Vata, which is vitiating the VataRoga and causes Pakshaghat.This first line of Treatment was under the elimination of the Aama involvement from Chief Complaints. It was done by Deepana- Pachana medicine as Shaman Chikitsa. After that, the ShodhanChikitsa was started by gaining the Nirama condition of Doshas. A significant improvement was observed by combining the Shaman and ShodhanChikitsa strategically.
