Management of cancer in Ayurveda |
p. 9 |
Kailash K Singh
Cancer has largely remained incurable due to its complexity and its ability to spread rapidly and uncontrollably. It is a condition in which our own body cells turn hostile. Cancer usually spreads very fast and a patient can meet death in less than one year. Therefore, remedial Measures need to be undertaken as soon as cancer is detected in the body. Various remedies available for cancer either try to put a check on the duplicating process of the mutant cells at genetic level or kill the entire collection of affected cells. The process, whether done chemically or through radiation, always runs the risk of affecting the neighbouring normal cells.

p. 21 |
Vandana Rani, Mukta Sinha
Episiotomy is one of the most commonly performed procedure in obstetrics. Post natal complications were more common among women Who had episiotomy compared to those who did not have episiotomy hence postpartum care for episiotomy wound should begin as soon as possible, so the present study work has been done on episiotomy wound healing. Basically, two things, shodhana (cleaning the wound) and ropana (Closure of the wound), are desirable for proper healing. Many drugs have been described in classics for healing, but none of them is capable of healing the wound individually. Hence, to fulfill the aim, Haridra and Kumari sadhit ghrit was prepared and evaluated clinically its healing properties on episiotomy wounds in this study. It was used topically on Episiotomy wounds. Out of 50 patients, 25 patients in, group B were treated with “Haridra and Kumari sadhit ghrit” (trial group), while 25 patients in group A (Control group) treated with Soframycin ointment with oral antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drugs.

(Ch.Su.l/43).

The concept of severe psychoses in Ayurveda |
p. 40 |
Prakash B Behere, Sundar Singh Danga
In Ayurveda, the description of the Psychiatry and its various disorders are described in Bhutvidya- a special branch of Ashtang Ayurveda. Ayurveda also emphasizes our mind to be of more importance than the body in the body-mind apparatus. Ayurveda also says that negative feelings are emotional toxins. If they are not driven out of the body in a stipulated time, they give rise to chronic mental disorders like anxiery neurosis, depression etc. If this is further ignored, it turns into permanent disorders like Unmad (Psychosis), Apasmar (Insanity) etc. Ayurvedic medicine is a holistic system of medicine that treats mental disorders from mild to severe condition, including insanity (psychosis). Ayurveda removes such psychological disorders by “spiritual therapy” known as Psychotherapy (Satwawjay Chikitsa).
