Abstract
Today Ano-rectal diseases have emerged as a quite common occurrence with progressive nature. According to the Ayurvedic concept, the aetiology of Arsha is interconnected with Mandagni of the patients. Arsha is a kind of disease that is most unkind towards mankind. A few important causes are sedentary lifestyle, irregular bowel habit, low fibre diet, prolonged straining, sedentary job, suppression of natural urges is some of the causative factors at present. It is a Mamsakeela that obstructs the Gudamarga and thus tortures the patient like an enemy. It can be co-related to haemorrhoids in modern science, the most common ailments of the rectum and anal canal. Intermittent symbolization and embarrassment make people neglect the early stages of haemorrhoids and ultimately end up in complications. The four therapeutic measures of Arshas include Bheshaja chikistha, Shastra karma, Kshara karma, and Agnikarma. Lepa is the foremost effective Bheshaja Chikistha yet less practised and demands further exploration. So based on Arsha Adhyaya of Susrutha Samhita and Arshoghnaadhyaya of Rasa ratnasamucchaya, the present study is intended to evaluate Snuhi ksheera – Haridra Choorna Lepa and Devadalyadi lepa in Arshas. Keywords: Haemorrhoids, Arshas, Snuhi Ksheera- Haridra Choorna Lepa, Devadalyadi Lepa
