Polycythemia Vera and Charaka Samhita

[Guest guest]

Dear and respected vaidyas and doctors,

 

Polycythemia Vera is a blood disorder in which the bone marrow makes too many

red blood cells and frequently result in the overproduction of platelets. It is

controlled by oral chemotherapy and usually the patient can live with the

disease for 12 or 15 years.

 

I would like to know if this kind of disease is cited at Charaka Samhita with

proper treatment, or at least a similar disease.

 

Warm regards,

you cannot get similar diseases in Alopathy & Ayurved. becoz the basic

principles of both sciences differ vast. In ayurved science, patient " s signs &

symtoms r observed 1st. then accordingly he is examined. specific reasons or

pre-symptoms r also considerded. then pathology can be decided. as per ayurved,

pathology of every patient of same disease can also differ. so treatment should

differ accordingly.

here Polycythemia Vera can be considered as Majja & Rakta vruddhi.
