Abstract

A LITERATURE REVIEW ON VISHWACHII WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO CERVICAL SPONDYLOSIS

*Dr. Kusum Verma, Dr. Nitin Mahajan, Dr. Radhika Gupta

ABSTRACT

Vishwachi is one of the Vata Vyadhis (neuromuscular disorders) described in Ayurvedic classics, characterized by pain and stiffness radiating from the neck to the upper limb. The condition can be closely correlated with Cervical Spondylosis in modern medical science, a degenerative disorder of the cervical spine resulting from intervertebral disc degeneration and osteophyte formation. The classical description of Vishwachi indicates involvement of Vata dosha in the Greeva pradesha (neck region) affecting the Snayu (ligaments) and Sira (nerves). The symptoms such as neck pain, stiffness, tingling, and radiating pain to the arms closely resemble those of cervical spondylosis. This literature review explores Ayurvedic and modern perspectives on Vishwachi, its pathophysiology, symptomatology, and management strategies, emphasizing their integration for better therapeutic outcomes.
