Abstract
Amavata is described as a disorder primarily involving the Rasavaha Srotasa and is commonly correlated with rheumatoid arthritis. The pathogenesis of Amavata is rooted in Agnidushti, leading to the formation of Ama, which subsequently results in Sandhivikruti. It is predominantly an endogenous disease, arising from the repeated and continuous production of Ama within the body. Clinically, Amavata represents one of the most prevalent chronic inflammatory joint disorders, characterised by joint pain, swelling, stiffness, and restricted movement. Owing to its chronic and progressive nature, along with associated complications, Amavata occupies a significant position among joint diseases. Even with the use of advanced modern therapeutic agents, the condition often demonstrates a persistent and progressive course, eventually leading to functional disability. Material and Methods: A 45-year-old female patient was admitted to the IPD of Kayachikitsa with complaints of sandhishoola, sandhishotha, aalasya, gauravta, angamarda and sparshasahtva, diagnosed as a case of aamvata and treated with langhan, deepan, pachan, sweden and other panchakarma interventions. Observation and Result: After successfully combining shaman treatment and Panchakarma treatment for consecutive times, the patient got complete relief from complaints.
