Abstract
Ayurveda, the science of life deals not only with the health of individual but also with disease state. Most of the diseases mentioned in Samhita are the diseases that occurred at that period of time. Lifestyle changes and infections are the unavoidable causes for the newly emerging diseases. Such diseases can be categorized as “Anukta vyadhi”. Anukta literally means unspecified or unstated. These diseases cannot be identified in Classical texts but can be understood with the eternal principles mentioned in Ayurveda texts. These Principles not only help in understanding the pathophysiology of diseases mentioned in Ayurveda but also prove to be useful to understand newly emerging disease pathology in terms of Ayurveda perspective. Avascular necrosis (AVN) is considered one amongst such Anukta vyadhi. There is increase in the incidence of AVN after COVID pandemic situation due to excess use of steroids to treat moderate to severe cases of Covid-19 infection. So, an attempt is made to understand etiopathology of femoral head avascular necrosis from Ayurveda Principles.
