Movement is one of the important gifts of God to mankind. If the individual has proper movements then it is indicative of undisturbed health. In some disorders foot movement are impaired; Crack foot syndrome is one such disorder where the person is apparently healthy but unable to walk because of pain, bleeding coupled with itching. In Ayurveda, it is referred as Padadari. The disease involves the Vatadosha leading to dryness, cracks, and fissures. The symptoms may include Vedana, Kandu, Daha, Raktasrava. So, in case of Padadari Acharyas’ explained Snehan, Swedan, Siravyadha followed by Lepa are advised as line of treatment. So, in this study two modalities viz. Siravyadha and Lepa are selected. The study was carried out on 60 patients. These patients were divided into two groups A and B each of 30 patients. Group A patients received Madhusiktadi Lepa and group B received Siravyadha with Madhusiktadi Lepa. Considering thorough statistical analysis of various study parameters and patient responses to the treatment, it is observed that Group B treatment has shown relatively better performance than group A treatment. Group B treatment has shown 53.26% patients completely cured (76-100% cure) and 46.66% patients shown marked improvement which is between 51-75% cure. Whereas group A treatment has shown 39.9 % patients were completely cured (76-100% cure) and 60.0% marked improvement (51-75% cure).

Lepa Kalpana is one amongst the external application used in Ayurveda. Manashiladi Lepa is a formulation explained in ‘Rasa Tantra Sara Va Siddha Prayoga Sangraha’ for the prevention of scar in the skin surface. The formulation contains Ghrita and Madhu which is to be mixed with the powder of the herbs told in the formulation. In the present scenario, the Lepa Kalpana is not liked by the patients themselves as it leaves behind residual marks on the skin surface and stains the cloth if it comes in contact with it. Hence a modified Lepa in the form of ointment which contains reduced amount of oiliness and good packing is accepted by all. Literary review done through various sources like books, journals and internet revealed that, no modification studies have been carried out on this formulation yet. The Lepa is modified into an ointment for its easy acceptability and usage. The formulation is tested for its analytical values and discussed in the article.
Lepa Kalpana是阿育吠陀中使用的外部应用之一。Manashiladi Lepa是《Rasa Tantra Sara Va Siddha Prayoga Sangraha》中解释的一种配方，用于防止皮肤表面的疤痕。该配方含有Ghrita和Madhu，将与配方中所述草药的粉末混合。在目前的情况下，Lepa Kalpana不被病人自己喜欢，因为它在皮肤表面留下残留的痕迹，如果接触到它，就会弄脏衣服。因此，一种改良的Lepa软膏形式，它含有减少的油性和良好的包装，被所有人接受。通过书籍、期刊和网络等各种渠道进行的文献综述显示，目前还没有对这一表述进行修改研究。Lepa被修改成软膏，便于接受和使用。本文对该配方的分析值进行了检验，并进行了讨论。

Menstrual pain without organic pathology is considered to be primary dysmenorrhoea. Dysmenorrhoea refers to the occurrence of painful menstrual cramps of uterine origin. It is a common gynaecological condition with considerable morbidity affecting majority of the adolescent girls, yet which is under diagnosed and under treated. Yoga can be considered as a simple and safe management tool for Primary Dysmenorrhoea. Studies have reported the beneficial role of Yoga in alleviating the symptoms of Primary dysmenorrhoea; however, a validated Yoga module for Primary dysmenorrhoea is unavailable. This study developed and validated an integrated Yoga module (IYM) for Primary dysmenorrhoea. Methods: The IYM was prepared after a thorough review of classical Yoga texts and previous findings. Twenty experienced Yoga experts, who fulfilled the inclusion criteria, were selected validating the content of the IYM. A total of 38 practices were included in the IYM, and each practice was discussed and rated as (i) not essential, (ii) useful but not essential, and (iii) essential; the content validity ratio (CVR) was calculated using Lawshe’s formula. Results: Data analysis revealed that of the 38 IYM practices, 18 exhibited significant content validity (cut-off value: 0.42, as calculated by applying Lawshe’s formula for the CVR). Conclusion: The IYM is valid for Primary dysmenorrhoea, with good content validity. However, future studies must determine the feasibility and efficacy of the developed module.

Shodhana of Swarnamakshika carried out by Bharjana in Eranda Tila. Marana of Swarnamakshika by finely powdered Shudda Swarnamakshika was taken in a Khalvayantra. Then equal quantity of Shudda Gandhaka was added and triturated together till they become homogenous. To this mixture 100ml of Jambhira Rasa was added triturated well till it becomes semisolid consistency. The paste were made into shape of Chakrikas weighing 25gm and 8cm uniformly and kept for drying. Subjecting into 5 required number of Varahaputas. The present day lifestyle and food habits have increased the production of free radicals. These cytotoxic free radicals not only raise the oxidative stress but also play an important role in the immune-system dysfunction due to which the mankind is prone to various major ailments and it is now proved that diseases like Prameha, Pandu, Vatavyadhi etc. are free radical mediated ones. To tackle these free radicals our body needs antioxidants. An antioxidant is a molecule which is capable of inhibiting the oxidation of other molecules. Oxidation reactions can produce free radicals which in turn start chain reactions that damage cells. Antioxidants terminate these chain reactions by removing free radical intermediates and inhibit other oxidation reactions. Many herbals drugs and compound herbal preparations have been screened for their antioxidant and immuno-modulatory properties but still there is a need for effective antioxidants. This dearth and also the fact that Swarnamakshika is being used in treating many of the free radical mediated diseases prompted us to take the present study which aims to validate the Antioxident effect of Swarnamakshika Bhasma scientifically and explain its probable mode of action at the cellular level.
