Abstract

Amavata can be correlated to Rheumatoid Arthritis which is characterized by the inflammatory type of arthritis, of severe and debilitating nature. No doubt modern medical science has got an important role to play in overcoming the agony of pain, restricted movement and disability and prolonged use of modern medicines are not only giving rise to many side effects, toxic symptoms and adverse reactions but also more serious complications are caused, Hence the management of this disease is merely insufficient in other systems of medicine and patients are continuously looking with a hope towards Ayurveda to overcome this challenge. Leech Therapy has been established as one of the most efficacious therapies in the management of various skin conditions like psoriasis, Eczema, cysts, abscess, and cellulitis etc. and musculoskeletal disorders. The present study primarily aims at studying the change in inflammatory markers such as C reactive proteins (CRP), Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR), TLC (total leukocyte count), and DLC (differential leucocyte count) in two groups of patients of Aamvata. From numerous researches, it is evident that CRP, ESR, TLC, and DLC are important inflammatory markers and found to increase in various conditions like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Myocardial Infarction, Alzheimer’s Disease, Diabetes Mellitus, and other diseases where there is the inflammatory process in the body. . The present study aims at determining the changes in inflammatory markers like CRP, ESR, TLC, and DLC in the patients of Aamvata treated with Leech Therapy.
