Abstract

The Prakriti of a person determines their susceptibility to various diseases. Sandhigat Vata is a common joint disorder among them, caused by Dhatukshya. This condition severely limits daily activities such as walking, dressing, and bathing, and it frequently causes disability. Managing a Vatavyadhi like Sandhigat Vata in old age is difficult. As a result, evaluating Prakriti is critical for determining the prognosis, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of many complex illnesses, including Sandhigat Vata, in both healthy and diseased individuals. Hence this study is aimed at evaluating the relationship between Prakriti and Sandhigat Vata. After the completion of study it was observed that Sandhigat Vata occurs more frequently in patients with Kapha Vataj Prakriti indicating the involvement of primarily Kapha and Vata Dosha.

Keywords: Prakriti, Sandhigat Vata, Kapha Vataj Prakriti.
