Abstract
Ayurvedic classics had described Madhumeha thousands of years ago. Acharya Sushruta mentioned prognosis of Madhumehaj vrana as “Krichrasadhya” (difficult to treat), which is experienced even in present day practice. Slight injury to glucose laden tissues of diabetic patients may result in ulcer formation and they become at high risk for major complications, including infection and amputation. PriyangvadiTaila contains the drugs possessing Shodhan and Ropana properties, thus considered as a good curative measure for local treatment of Vrana. A case report of Madhumehajanya Vrana successfully treated by local application of Priyangvadi-Taila has been presented here. The therapy proved to be very effective and the wound got completely healed within 20 days without any complications and side effects.
