Abstract

“The destruction / break / rupture / discontinuity of body tissue / part of body, is called Vrana.” The healing of wound is the natural mechanism of the body. Naturally wound will heal in one week if no Doshic invasion (infection) takes place. Wound in lower extremity are generally caused by venous insufficiency, arterial insufficiency, and diabetic neuropathy. These wounds may hamper the quality of life of patient. Here we reported a case of non healing wound after surgery of fracture of shaft of right tibia bone. A male patient of 70 years old consulted to OPD, Shree Gulabkunverba Ayurveda Hospital, Jamnagar, with with painful, hypertrophied, irregular shaped wound on anterior aspect of tibia since 6 months. He was unable to bear weight on the affected leg (right lower limb). This case was managed with a local application of Madhukadi Yoga and almost healed within 8 weeks. This case concluded that regular local application of Madhukadi Yoga is helpful in non healing wound.
