Abstract
Vicharchika is one of the most common skin diseases. Vicharchika can be co-related with eczema, which is a form of dermatitis or inflammation of the upper layers of the skin. The term eczema is broadly applied to a range of persistent or recurring skin rashes characterized by redness, skin edema, itching, and dryness, with possible crusting, flaking, blistering, cracking, oozing, or bleeding. Areas of temporary skin discoloration are sometimes characterized as healed lesions, though scarring is rare. Long-standing eczema is often dry and is characterized by thickened, scaling skin with hyper pigmentation and visible crisscross markings (lichenification). No satisfactory treatment is available in contemporary medical practice except antihistamines and topical steroids. A patient approached OPD with chief complaints of edema, blackish skin lesions, with intense itching at the dorsum of both ears. A remarkable improvement in the condition was observed with the local application of Arkaharidra taila in a span of 2 weeks
