Abstract

Even though many diseases may still be in their infancy in the society, modern medical science has many facilities and advanced technologies for treating patients. One of these disorders, psoriasis, has a significant psychological and social impact on the patient's life. Psoriasis is more than just a problem with the skin because of its manifestations. Psoriasis is a long-lasting autoimmune and chronic inflammatory skin disorder clinically characterized by erythematous, sharply demarcated papules and rounded plaques, covered by silvery micaceous scale predominantly affecting the skin of elbows, gluteal cleft, knees and scalp. The appearance of the skin frequently lowers the quality of life of Psoriasis patients. However, the current medical system's treatment options are not particularly satisfactory. Because psoriasis is a disease that is difficult to treat, treating it is not only difficult for patients but also for "Vaidya" in Ayurveda. It might be related to Ekkushta. There are a number of drugs and preparations mentioned in the Ayurvedic Classics. This can rejuvenate the skin. The present work has been under taken to study-Management of Ekkushta (Psoriasis) Through Virechana Karma with Patolmulaadi Kwath and Mustaadi Kwath.
