Abstract

Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common compression neuropathy of the median nerve at the level of the wrist. It is an occupational disease commonly seen in dentists, soldiers, and laboratory workers who make repetitive upper limb movements. The incidence of Carpal tunnel syndrome is 1-3 cases per 1000 subjects per year; the prevalence is approximately 50 cases per 1000 subjects in the general population. There is no direct reference in Ayurveda; the symptoms can be compared to Vishwachi. In contemporary medicine, analgesic tablet liniments are prescribed, temporarily providing temporary symptomatic relief. Surgery is advised as a relief measure. In this single case study, a 60-year-old male patient with complaints of pain, tingling sensation in the wrist, fingers of the right hand and inability to perform daily activities for eight months is considered. He was diagnosed with Carpal tunnel syndrome. He is treated by snehana nasya, one of the Panchakarma indicated in urdhwajatrugata vyadhi, along with sthanika abhyanga and Kukkutanda pinda sweda which proved very beneficial and effective in relieving the symptoms of the patient. Treatment by Ayurveda is the current need as there is no effective treatment for complete management of the condition in conventional medicine.

阿育吠陀治疗腕管综合征:个案研究
腕管综合征是腕部正中神经最常见的压迫性神经病变。这是一种常见于牙医、士兵和重复性上肢运动的实验室工作人员的职业病。腕管综合征的发病率为每年每1000人1-3例;在一般人群中,患病率约为每1000名受试者50例。在阿育吠陀中没有直接的参考;这些症状可以与毗瑟瓦齐相提并论。在现代医学中,处方止痛片搽剂,暂时提供暂时的症状缓解。建议手术作为缓解措施。在这个单一的案例研究中,一位60岁的男性患者,主诉疼痛,手腕和右手手指刺痛感,无法进行日常活动八个月。他被诊断出患有腕管综合症。他的治疗是snehana nasya,这是urdhwajatrugata vyadhi中指出的Panchakarma之一,以及sthanika abhyanga和Kukkutanda pinda sweda,这被证明对缓解患者的症状非常有益和有效。阿育吠陀治疗是当前的需要,因为在传统医学中没有有效的治疗方法来完全控制这种情况。
