Abstract

In the Siddha System of medicine, Kalladdaipu (Renal stones) comes under Neerinai arukal noigal, which means diseases that reduce urinary output. Kalladdaipu presents with symptoms like burning micturition, renal and low back pain, urinary obstruction, and the presence of sand-like crystals in the urine, and it is compared with the urolithiasis, which refers to the formation of stones in the kidney, ureter, urinary bladder, or urethra. In Siddha medicine, kalladaippu is generally treated with lithotriptic and diuretic formulations. In this case study, a 69-year-old female patient with 6 mm renal calculus was treated with Neermulli kudineer and Nandukal parpam for four weeks, resulting in the renal calculi's complete expulsion. This case study underscores cost-effective Siddha treatment in expelling renal stones, showcasing synergistic actions leading to the disintegration and elimination of urinary stones providing valuable insights for clinicians in Siddha medicine.
