Keerthi Sudhakaran*

Abstract

One among the Vata Vyadhi is Janusandhigatavata which is distinguished by the symptoms Sandhi Shoola and Sandhi Sopha. Degenerative joint illnesses, which present with symptoms including swelling and pain during flexion and extension, primarily affects the middle-aged and older persons. JanuSandhigatavata symptoms seem to be comparable to those of osteoarthritis, a degenerative condition caused by the breakdown of articular cartilage and diarthrodial joint failure. To assess the efficacy of Jadamayadi Upanaha in Janu sandhigatavata, a single clinical case study was carried out. The treatment involved external application of the choorna in form of upanaha over the patient's damaged knee joints for one hour every day for thirty days. Following the procedure, the patient noticed a noticeable improvement in the majority of her symptoms as well as substantial alleviation.
