AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON ROGA NIDANA : A REVIEW WSR TO KAMALA ROGA
Abstract
Ayurvedic scholars have provided different treatment options for various diseases on the basis of Nidana (pathogenesis) and Lakshanas (signs and symptoms). Ayurveda consider predominance of Doshas and Prakruti as the main reason behind the occurrence of disease. Asatmendriyarthasamyoga, Prajnaparadha and Parinama are the three basic factors affecting etiology. Diagnosis is also an important component of Chikitsa. Homeostasis is a very crucial factor for the health body and liver acts as an important centre for regulating the production and excretion of Mala. Kamala is a condition where the skin, eye and mucous membrane get yellow discoloration due to excessive accumulation of Pitta into the body as it is not excreted out of the body. Asatmya Ahara, Viruddha Ahara, excessive exercise, Mansik factors are some of the Nidana of Kamala Roga which help in its diagnosis and planning the treatment. It is important to break the pathological chain to control the spread of disease and to eradicate the root cause of disease. Therefore it is necessary to find the etiological factors responsible for the production of disease so that the condition of recurrence can be avoided.
