Lavandula stoechas , also known as Ustukhuddus or Jaroob-i-dimag in Unani medicine, is a plant from the Lamiaceae (Labiatae) family with significant therapeutic value. Extensive research has been conducted on its chemical composition, pharmacognostic characteristics, and pharmacological properties. The analysis from classical Unani books and online data of Lavandula stoechas has revealed the presence of various organic and inorganic substances, as well as essential oils. Ongoing studies are focused on discovering new chemical constituents within the plant. In Unani literature, Lavandula stoechas is described as having multiple pharmacological effects, such as antiseptic, deobstruent, demulcent, phlegmagogue, nervine tonic, antianxiety, anticonvulsant properties, and being beneficial in conditions like numbness, trembling, mania, and amnesia. While some of these traditional uses have been scientifically supported, others require further investigation. Scientific research has confirmed several actions attributed to Lavandula stoechas in Unani medicine. These include antibacterial properties, blood purifying effects, adaptogenic properties, hypotensive effects, cytotoxic and genotoxic effects, anticonvulsant activity, sedative properties, antispasmodic effects, hypoglycemic activity, and antianxiety properties. However, more research is needed to evaluate the remaining actions.

Faqr-ud-dam is plainly known to be called as Anemia. It is the qualitative and quantitative disturbed condition of blood causing inability in catering the corporal physiologic functions. WHO defines anemia as a condition in which the hemoglobin content of blood is lower than normal as a result of deficiency of one or more essential nutrients, regardless of the cause of such deficiencies. Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia worldwide, though other factors, such as foliate, vitamin B12 and vitamin A deficiencies. Hakeem Kabiruddin described Faqr-ud-Dam with synonyms of ' Faqr-ud-dam, Qillat-ud-dam, Fasa-ud-dam and Khizra etc. The principal of treatment in Unani Medicine lies with three modules, Ilaj bil Tadbeer (Regimenal therapy) like a Riyazat, Dalk etc, Ilaj bil Ghiza ( Dieto therapy) like a Ghiza-e-lateef, Kaseer-ul-tagziaetc, and Ilaj bil Dawa (Pharmaco therapy) like some single drug Zafran, Maweez, Balchhar, and different formulations and preparation used were based on drug aiming to supplement iron, stop further blood loss and to empower the liver.

众所周知，Faqr-ud-dam被称为贫血。它是血液在质和量上的紊乱状态，导致身体生理功能无法满足。世卫组织将贫血定义为由于缺乏一种或多种必需营养素而导致血液中的血红蛋白含量低于正常水平，而不管这种缺乏的原因是什么。铁缺乏是世界范围内贫血最常见的原因，尽管其他因素，如叶酸、维生素B12和维生素A缺乏。Hakeem Kabiruddin用Faqr-ud-Dam, Qillat-ud-dam, Fasa-ud-dam和Khizra等的同义词来描述Faqr-ud-Dam。Unani医学的主要治疗方法有三个模块，Ilaj bil Tadbeer(方案治疗)，如Riyazat, Dalk等，Ilaj bil Ghiza (Dieto治疗)，如Ghiza-e-lateef, kaseer -ul- tagzia等，Ilaj bil Dawa(药物治疗)，如一些单一药物Zafran, Maweez, Balchhar，不同的配方和制剂使用的药物旨在补充铁，停止进一步失血，并赋予肝脏力量。Sharbat-e-Faulad, Sharbat-e-Maweez, Sharbat-e-Anar, majon Khabsul Hadeed, Kushta Khabsul Hadeed。

Insheqaq Maqadhaad (Acute Anal fissure) is an ulcer in the longitudinal axis of the lower anal canal. Clinical presentation of patients includes Common in middle aged w omen, not in elderly. Constipation, bleeding discharge and stools are hard pellet like and there is drop of blood or streaks of fresh blood. Chronic fissures are characterized by a hypertrophied anal papilla internally and a sentinel tag externally (both consequent upon attempts at healing and breakdown), between which lies the slightly indurated anal ulcer overlying the fibers of the internal sphincter. When chronic, patients may also complain of itching secondary to irritation from the sentinel tag, discharge from the ulcer or discharge from an associated intersphincteric fistula, which has arisen through infection penetrating via the fissure base. In Aabzan Therapy only hips are immersed in medicated water, level of water should not be above navel (umbilicus). This therapy is very common and is used to relieve pain and discomfort of lower and upper limbs. It is indicated in Anal fissure, hemorrhoids, rectal prolapsed, uterine prolapsed, oligomenorrhoea, hysteria, dysentery, diarrhoea, cystitis, uterine cramps, vaginitis, IBS and prostitis. Present study was conducted on 30 Lord's anal dilatation post operative patients of Insheqaq Maqadhaad (Acute Anal fissure) to evaluate the effect of Aabzan of warm water in cases of InsheqaqMaqadhaad(Acute Anal fissure). The significant reduction in various scores was found after the completion of the study.

Aabzan Therapy (sitz bath) is cheapest, simplest and non-invasive method of regimental therapy. In this kind of bath only hips are immersed in medicated water, level of water should not be above navel (umbilicus). This therapy is very common and is used to relief pain and discomfort of lower and upper limbs. Abu Bakr Mohammad Bin Zakariya Razi, writes in his book Kitab-ul-Haawi that to relief pain and to reduce inflammation of Shiqaq Maq'ad, the patient is advised to sit in the decoction (joshanda) of beekh e khatmi, tukhm e katan, baboon as sitz bath (Aabzan). Aabzan therapy dilates vessels, increases capillary permeability, increases blood flow, and stimulates nerve endings. It is indicated in Anal fissure, hemorrhoids, rectal prolapsed, uterine prolapsed, oligomenorrhoea, hysteria, dysentery, diarrhoea, cystitis, uterine cramps, vaginitis, IBS and prostitis. The present study was an open label clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of sitz bath with unani formulation on the basis of standard parameters (subjective parameters) which are based on clinical assessment. The study was conducted on 30 patients th th and duration was 28 days, with total 05 visits to hospital (0-day, 7 day, 14 day, 21" day, 28th day,). The sitz bath was given with a dose of 40gm medicine (beekh-e-khatmi, baboona, tukhm-e-katan) in 5 liters of warm water.
Aabzan疗法(坐浴)是最便宜、最简单、无创的治疗方法。在这种沐浴中，只将臀部浸入药水中，水平面不应高于肚脐(脐部)。这种疗法非常常见，用于缓解下肢和上肢的疼痛和不适。Abu Bakr Mohammad Bin Zakariya Razi在他的书Kitab-ul-Haawi中写道，为了缓解疼痛和减少Shiqaq Maq'ad的炎症，建议患者坐在beekh e khatmi, tukhm e katan，狒狒坐浴(Aabzan)中。Aabzan疗法扩张血管，增加毛细血管通透性，增加血流量，刺激神经末梢。适用于肛裂、痔疮、直肠脱垂、子宫脱垂、少漏、癔病、痢疾、腹泻、膀胱炎、子宫痉挛、阴道炎、肠易激综合征、前列腺炎。本研究是以临床评价为基础，以标准参数(主观参数)为基础，评价乌纳尼方坐浴疗效的开放标签临床研究。研究对象为30例患者，随访28天，共就诊05次(0天、7天、14天、21天、28天)。在5升温水中加入40克药物(beekh-e-khatmi, baboona, tukhm-e-katan)进行坐浴。

Dysmenorrhea is pain related with menstruation in Unani medicine, and ancient texts are abundant with traditional knowledge for managing menstrual pain.It is the most frequent gynecologic condition among female teenagers, affecting more than half of women between the ages of 18 and 25 years. It is characterized by painful cramps in the lower abdomen that are accompanied by one or more symptoms such as perspiration, lower backache, exhaustion, diarrhea, headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and syncope in severe instances. Because conventional medicines often do not completely relieve pain and have their own side effects on the human body, it is necessary to understand the traditionally documented therapeutic options that have no adverse effects on the human body. The many causes and treatments for dysmenorrhea have been discussed in the unani literature under the category of waje rehm / dard rehm / usre tams. According to Unani manuscripts, the main management strategy is to induce analgesia and address the underlying cause of usr-i-tamth, which includes aberrant temperament, monthly irregularities/uterine disorders, as well as psychological and environmental variables. Unani drugs having emmenagogue, antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic are helpful in the treatment of usr-i-tamth.Herbs including Apium graveolens, Cuminum cyminum, Foeniculum vulgare, Matricaria chamomilla, and Nigella sativa have the aforementioned qualities, and their usefulness in usr-i-tamth has been scientifically verified. Validation and preservation of traditional knowledge are thus necessary for future study and important for usage in the modern period. The focus of the review study is on the treatment of dysmenorrhea in the unani medical system. It also goes over some of the herbal medicines and unani compound formulations that are used to treat dysmenorrhea.

The papita (Carica papaya) is a plant used in unani medicines since ages, which is a vital fruit from the Caricaceae Family and is a small fast growing, soft-wooded and short-lived tree with milky sap. The skin of the fruit is green in color while it is unripe and it turns yellow to orange as the fruit ripens. It is known as papaw or pawpaw and also it is known by different names in regional languages. It is a medicinal plant that has been extensively used in traditional medicine due to their versatile benefits to cure different diseases since ancient times till date. It is a rich source of powerful antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and high content of fiber. It is evident that the compound of C. papaya has been reported to contain antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antiinflammatory properties. Earlier reports have proven that C. papaya fruit and its active ingredients show important role in health management. Because of this comprehensive medicinal value of Carica papaya in this review article, we have aimed to evaluate the medicinal properties of papaya in wound healing, Hypoglycemic activity, in cardiovascular and infectious diseases, malaria and dengue fever, cancer and other various diseases prevention and treatment.

Inula racemosa Hook. F. commonly known as “rasan” is a stout perennial herb which belongs to family Asteraceace with peculiar and limited distribution from temperate to alpine belts of Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh. In Kashmir, Rasan is found inadequately in the areas of Gurez (1586 m), Farozpora (2150 m), Gulmarg (2650 m), Simthantop (3784 m), Razdantop (3300 m) and KUBG (1595 m). The locals have been applying the paste of root mixed with some edible oils to treat scabies and chest pain. Traditionally the roots are used for treatment of phlegmatic migraine, melancholia, severe flatulence, loss of appetite, intestinal worms liver diseases, obstructive and non-obstructive jaundice, chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma, diabetes mellitus, leprosy, paralysis, amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, urinary incontinence. etc (Galen) (Baitar, 1999) (Ghani, 2010) (Magrabi, 2007).. Since there is no detailed standardization work done on the above plant, Therefore, it has been analyzed through pharmacognostic techniques such as morphological, microscopic, and physio-chemical evaluations to keep the originality of the plant and to avoid adulteration. Preliminary phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of gylcosides, tannins, sterols, terpenoids, coumarins, saponins, proteins, phenols, saponins. The above-mentioned studies that have been reported, for the first time, for the said plant may be significant to establish the pharmacognostic and phytochemical standards of the said species.

Peristrophe bicalyculata (Retz.) Nees. family Acanthaceae is a lesser-known drug of Unani Medicine but commonly used drug in Ayurvedic medicine. The plant is found throughout India. In Aligarh and around it is locally called as “Chaksini”. In Unani medicine it is mentioned by the name of “Massi” and “Kakajangha”. The most relevant description of the plant is mentioned as “Massi”. It is used for the treatment of different ailments e.g. fever, cold, cough, insomnia, headache, leucorrhea etc. and also for snake poison and sprain. Preliminary neuropharmacological screening e.g. anticonvulsant, narcotic, CNS depressant activities of the plant have been done. The plant has also evaluated for its antibacterial, antidiabetic and antilipidaemic activities. This review is prepared to explore the identifying characteristics, ethanomedicinal importance and therapeutic uses of lesser known herb of Unani Medicine.

Laqwa (facial palsy) is the most common cranial nerve motor neuropathy and it results in a characteristic facial distortion that is determined in part by the nerves branches involved. In majority of cases the cause is idiopathic. Rabban Tabri has originally described facial palsy entitled it as “laqwa” and explained its treatment. Thousands of people each year develop facial paralysis, a relatively common disorder with many different origins (infectious, traumatic, neoplastic, inflammatory, metabolic or idiopathic). The annual incidence has been estimated to be approximately 70 cases per 100,000 populations. Incidence of unilateral facial paralysis is 1,000 cases per 5 million populations per year. Unani scholars from various part of the world have been treating this condition since centuries successfully. Improvement of facial muscle function begins within first 3 weeks after onset of disease. Different effective regimes are available in Unani system of medicine (USM) for the treatment of Laqwa (facial palsy). Those treatments are effective and having fewer side effects. In the present paper the case studies of two male patients suffering from Laqwa (facial palsy). After series of investigation no definitive etiology could be traced out, hence considered as unilateral Facial palsy of left side, treated with Unani formulations is reported. This case series documented the successful treatment and prevention of recurrence of Laqwa (facial palsy) through Unani medicines. It concluded that the Unani regimen was effective and safe in the management of Laqwa (facial palsy).In most cases, Bell's palsy has a good prognosis and the patient will recover with outpatient therapy without complication.
