The word pain derives its origin from the Indo-European root meaning aleg suffer. The word pain is later and is derived from the Latin word «poena» means punishment. Since ancient times there was disagreement about the perception of pain and its assessment. Unlike vision, hearing and smell, pain does not seem to be a primary sense, but rather an emotional experience. Most researchers pain, felt the pain as a complex concept, which is induced by noxious stimuli.

The term ‘pain’ generally defined as an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, caused by intense or damaging stimuli [1]. At some points of life, everyone experiences pain. It is an enormous global health problem and has been estimated that one-fifth adults suffer from pain, globally [2]. There are many herbal medicines for natural pain relief and some of them have been approved in experimental studies [3,4]. Over the past two decades, there has been a tremendous increase in the use of herbal medicine worldwide. It has been estimated that threequarters of world population use herbal medicine. Despite this interest, there is still a significant lack of research data in this field [5-7].

Introduction: Siddha system of medicine is one of the most accepted traditional system of medicine in India. This system provides innumerous dosage of drug formulations from the herbal plant mentioned in the Siddhar‟s literature. The present study represents the preparation and formulation of Amirthathi churnam and Nandukal (Fossil stone of Crab) chunnam of Siddha drugs in the treatment of Nephrolithiasis (urinary stones). The highly commended medicine formulation of churnam (power) and chunnam (calcinated nanoparticle powder) in Siddha medicine system is comprehensively used in the drug preparation and therapeutic effects. Churnam is a mixture of powdered herbs and or minerals used in Siddha and Ayurvedic medicine. Chunnam is highly acclaimed dosage form of alkaline group of drugs indicated for chronic diseases. in about 20 patients with Nephrolithiasis. The clinical evaluation reveals that the symptom of burning micturalion, dyuria, Hematuria, abdominal pain from loin to groin, Back pain, and general symptoms like nausea and vomiting reduced significantly in all the patients. This indicated the positive results to remove the urinary stones. The 99% of patients having 0.5mm size of the calculi have been recovered after the periods of treatment. Conclusion: The drugs namely Amirthathi churnam and Nuandukkal chunnam are having good response to reduce the size of the calculi. The clinical studies of these drugs provide positive results to remove the urinary stones. After having treatment, the patients have been found with non-recurrent condition. It is observed that the Amirthathi churnam and Nuandukkal chunnam in Siddha formulations are considered to be safe for treating the Nephrolithiasis diseases.
简介:悉达医学体系是印度最被接受的传统医学体系之一。该系统从悉达尔文献中提到的草药植物中提供了无数剂量的药物制剂。本研究报道了金蟹石(Amirthathi churnam)和蟹石(Nandukal)春南(chunnam of Siddha)药物治疗肾结石(尿路结石)的制备和配方。综合运用Siddha医药体系中备受推崇的“churnam(粉末)”和“chunnam(煅烧纳米颗粒粉末)”药物配方，实现药物制备和治疗效果。Churnam是一种粉末草药和矿物质的混合物，用于悉达和阿育吠陀医学。春南是碱类慢性疾病药物中备受推崇的剂型。在20例肾结石患者中临床评价显示，所有患者的排尿灼烧、尿痛、血尿、腰至腹股沟腹痛、背痛及恶心、呕吐等一般症状均明显减轻。提示尿路结石清除阳性结果。0.5mm结石患者经治疗后，99%的患者均已痊愈。结论:阿密他提、春南对缩小结石有较好的疗效。这些药物的临床研究提供了积极的结果，以消除尿路结石。经治疗后发现患者无复发。观察到，在悉达方中，阿密塔提和阮杜卡勒春南被认为是安全的治疗肾结石疾病。

The treatment decisions in children with pneumonia depend on the age, clinical status, and probable etiology of the infectious agent. There are several age-old practices for healing childhood pneumonia. Homeopathic remedies for pneumonia are also known. Several herbs and plant parts have usages in treating pneumonia. From the treasure trove of several dispersed-unsynchronized scientific studies and ethno-knowledge, it emerges that synergistic formulation based on plant and animal ingredients are highly effective in the treatment and prophylaxis of pneumonia among children. These practices have undergone several human trials as it bear centuries-old tradition. Hence, multi-component therapy may provide revived medication(s) to save millions of children dying every year due to pneumonia with the rider that it has to be validated and scientifically scrutinized for multiple perturbations of biological networks, in addition to multiple targets with system biology tools, now available, to establish the basis of multi-component therapy.
