“MANAGEMENT OF AVASCULAR NECROSIS (AVN) WITH AYURVEDIC APPROACH: A SINGLE CASE STUDY”

Vascular necrosis is the death of bone tissue due to a lack of blood supply. Also known as osteonecrosis, it can lead to small breaks in the bone and lead to bone collapse. A fracture or double joint can stop blood flow in the bone section. Vascular necrosis is also associated with long-term use of high doses and too many alcoholic steroid drugs (1). Here we present a case of a 48-year-old man with vascular necrosis of the femoral head on both sides (FICAT stage III on the left, stage II on the right). It may correlate with Asthimajagat Vata. The Ayurveda management team includes Shaman Chikitsa and Shodan Chikitsa. This case highlights challenges related to Asthimajagat Vata (AVN) and highlights the importance of timely interventions and interdisciplinary care.
