ABSTRACT

Skin is a primary external covering and largest organ of human body mostly affected by fungal infections. Skin diseases are common manifestation in present era and more so frequent in the elder age. Kustha a type of skin disorder mentioned in Ayurveda is a Tridoshaja Vyadhi where Rasa, Rakta, Mamsa and Ambu are the main Dushyas. Dadru (Fungal skin infection) is one of the most common but miserable variety of Kushta affects the population of all the age group. There is no separate mention of Nidana, Poorvarupa, Samprapti of Dadru, but the Samanya Nidana, Poorvarupa mentioned for Kushta can be considered here. Incidence rate of Dadru gradually increasing day to day because of improper Vihara like uncleanliness of body, sharing cloths of others etc. Dadru can be diagnosed by symptoms like Pidika, Varna (Atasipushpa) with Mandala (Round patch). Dadru, is a Kapha Pitta Pradhan Vyadhi and which is managed by Shodhana, Shamanaand Bahiparimarjana (topical) Chikitsa. Local application works faster due to physiological effect of heat on the skin. As per the need of fast life of today’s society, Bahiparimarjana in the form of Lepa was selected which is easily done and act as Sthanika Chikitsa for fast relief. So we can use the Kushthaya churna lepa in dadru patient which is mention by acharya charka. The ingredients of Kushthaya churna lepa is possessing Shodhana & Kustahar a property. The results revealed significant effect of Lepa in various subjective parameters like Kandu, colour and number of Mandala, number of Pidika after treatment.
