Abstract
All the skin diseases in Ayurveda have been discussed under the broad heading of “Kustha”. In general Twak Vikaras are mainly affecting due to altered lifestyle, lack of physical exercise, poor hygiene, mental stress and improper food habits. Kitibha Kushta is one of the Kshudra Kushta. Here Tridosha, Rasa, Rakta, Mamsa, Ambu are affected. Kapha-Vata is the Dosha predominant in the Kitibha Kustha and Rakta Dusti is the main cause for all Twak Vikaras. Vamana and Virechana is the Shodhana Karma for Twak Vikara. After Shodhana, Shamana Chikitsa plays major role for Alpadosha Nirharana. This paper highlights a case study of Kitibha Kushta as a Raktavahasrotodusti Vikara treated with the Ayurvedic principles in particular Shodhana Chikitsa.
