Abstract

Ayurveda is a traditional medical system that treats a wide range of illnesses and associated treatments in addition to the nation of Swasthya, or the most effective human fitness. Diaper rash is one of the most frequent issues in pediatric outpatient departments. According to Ashang Hridaya, the causes of Kandu (irritability), Daha (burning sensation), Tamra Varna (redness), Strava (discharge), Vrana (wound formation around the perianal region), and Pidika (papulovesicular lesion) around the Guda vicinity (serviette region) are all related to Maloplep (contained faeces) and Sweda (sweat/perspiration). Ahiputana has three doshas: Rakta Dosha Prakop (increase), Pitta, and Kapha.In the following case report, a 12-month-old kid complained of three days of burning, discharge, and itching in the buttocks. The child was treated with a localized application of Shatadhauta Ghrita on the outside. The signs and symptoms completely disappeared after the seven-day course of treatment, and they haven't returned as of now. Based on the current case file, it may be deduced that Ahiputana, or diaperrash, can be successfully treated with the right Ayurvedic drugs.
