At those periods they already mentioned many number of diseases along with their signs, symptoms and prognosis as well as different method of management including local therapy and surgical treatment. This ayurveda modality of treatment and therapy should reach the society for sustaining good health socially, mentally and physically. The drug used should be easily available and effective in treatment with low cost and ensure good results. In classics we find 11 types of shirorogas, Suryavarta is one among them. It has become common clinical complaint in present day-to-day life with headache as one of its cardinal feature. The cardinal feature of suryavarta are severe pain in region of akshi (eye) and bhru pradesha (eye brow) with characteristic periodicity which begin in early morning hours gradually increase and reaches its peak by noon and then starts decreasing by evening. Most of the clinical features of suryavarta disease can be correlated to the clinical features of frontal sinusitis. The occurrence of the suryavarta disease has become more prevalence because of some common nidanas, aharaja and viharaja bhavas.
