Dr. Ranjit Singh* and Dr. Upasana Priya

ABSTRACT

Skin is the outermost covering of the body serving as a barrier between the external and internal environment. It is the largest organ of the body which acts as a first line of defense in providing resistance to the body. The aggravation of various Dhatus and Doshas result in skin diseases. More than one-fifty skin related diseases are mentioned in various Ayurvedic texts. They are categorized as Visarpa, Kustha, Shotha, Upadansh etc. Visarpa is a very common disease mentioned in Ayurvedic texts which spreads in body in various directions. It is said to be caused by Varicella zoster virus as per modern concept. It manifests as Daha, Jwara, Anunnatashopha and Vedana. Ayurveda consider Raktmokshan (blood sucking) and Pradeha (local application of drugs) as the best suitable treatment modalities for Visarpa. Virechana can help in faster healing of the lesion and provide the relief for various symptoms. The details about Visarpa, its modern perspective and classical treatment are described here.
