Abstract

Vicharchikais characterized as one of the assortments of astadasha kshudra kusta, in which the skin creates Shyavavarna, Pidakas related with Srava and Kandu. The three doshas - Vata, Pitta and Kapha get vitiated first and later they exasperate and distress the four dushyas - Twak, Rakta, Mansa and Ambu. These seven are the Sapta Dravyas Sangraha of Kushtha. In view of this complex of seven body components, eighteen sorts of Kushtas are delivered. Viruddhahara is considered as the major nidana for Kushta. A 50 years male patient and independently employed approached the short term division with boss protests of Kandu (tingling) pidikas (rashes), Shava varnata (pale blue dark staining), srava (release) on lower appendages since 30-40 days. Patient was analyzed as Vicharchika and controlled the lepa karma witharka taila which was applied two times every day for 30 days and the follow up was finished on 45th day.
