Abstract
The term "Alcoholic Liver Disease" refers to the range of liver conditions caused by excessive alcohol intake, including fatty liver, alcoholic hepatitis, chronic hepatitis with liver fibrosis or cirrhosis and ascites. A 40-year-old male patient with alcoholic liver disease (ALD) visited the Kayachikitsa OPD complaining of Udaravruddhi(abdominal distension), Agnimandya, Dourbalya (generalised weakness). Sakashthashwasana (breathlessness), Ubhayapadashotha (oedema over the feet), as well as Twaka Nakha Netra MutraPitata(yellowish discoloration of the eyes, skin, and black urine). Treatment involves stopping drinking as well as reducing peripheral oedema and ascitic fluid volume. Ascites can relate toUdaravyadhi and successfully managed with NityaVirechana (Daily Purgation) and Shamana Aushadhis(Medicinal Treatment), providing notable improvements in dyspnea, anorexia, abdominal pain, and other symptoms. The outcomes were assessed by measuring liver functions through specific clinical features and laboratory parameters. Hence presenting this case is evidence to demonstrate the effectiveness of Ayurvedic treatment in ALD induced Jalodara.
