Abstract

describes Amavata in  detail. Based on clinical similarities, we can compare Amavata to contemporary  Rheumatoid Arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common chronic  inflammatory illness, affecting 0.5 percent of the global population and 0.65  percent to 0.75 percent of the Indian population. Ama dosha interacts directly  with Vata dosha in Amavata, causing joint inflammation, deformity, and  immobility in the fingers, feet, and ankles, as well as stiffness throughout the  body. DMARDs and steroids are used to treat RA, however they do not totally  cure disease. Langhana, Swedana, Deepana, Tikta-katu rasa, Virechana, Basti,  and other aspects of Amavata management are described in detail in Ayurveda.  The 43-year-old female in this case was treated with Ayurvedic drugs. A patient  who has been diagnosed is treated with Sinhanad Gugglu, Rasana Saptak  Kwath, Sanjivani vati, Ajmodadi churn, and bala Arishta. The end of the  treatment contributed to a decrease in overall symptoms.
