Abstract

 Fissure in ano is a troubling and painful condition that affects a great majority of the population world over. On the basis of symptoms, the disease fissure-in-ano can be compared to the disease Parikartika according to Ayurveda. Wound healing is one of the treatment modalities in the treatment of chronic fissures. Lajjalu (Mimosa pudica Linn.) is known to possess Vrunaghna, Sandhaniya and Raktasthambhana properties, & indicated mainly in Raktapitta, Daaha, Vruna, Shotha, etc [1]. Which are essential in the management of anal fissure. Considering these different aspects in mind, the study was planned to see the effect of Lajjalu Kashaya in the management of fissure-in-ano. The patients of 16-60 years of age attending the OPD and IPD of the hospital with the complaints and Fissure in ano were included in the study after taking their consent. They were randomly assigned into two groups i.e. Group 1 (Lajjalu kashaya pichu)
and Group 2 (Panchavalkala kashaya pichu) consisting of 20 patients arm. The Kashaya Pichu application was done for the period of 7 days and the patients were assessed before and after treatment. In our study, we found that Lajjalu Kashaya Pichu is effective in the management of Parikartika by reducing pain, bleeding, burning sensation and itching. It is effective especially in relieving Pain and Burning sensation significantly than Panchavalkala Kashaya Pichu.
