Skin disease is one among Deerghkalinvyadhi (Chronic disease) and also one of the AsthaMahagada (Eight dreadful diseases). The disease psoriasis comes under the Kustha roga. Psoriasis is one of the most common dermatologic disorder and a chronic skin disorder of present day. Almost all the skin disease is explained under Kushta- Rogadhikara (skin disease) and classified as MahaKushta and Kshudra Kushta (Major and Minor skin disease). Acharya have described that all Kushta’s have Tri Dosha (three energies) involvement but the type of Kushta depends on the predominance of particular Doshas. The signs and symptoms of Eka-Kushta (psoriasis) in Ayurveda are similar to that of psoriasis explained in modern medicines. Psoriasis is marked by periodic flare-ups of sharply defined red patches, covered by a silvery, flaky surface. Aswedana (Absence of perspiration), Mahavastu (Present all over body), MastyaShakalopama (Look like a fish scale) is the feature mentioned by Acharyas for Eka-kushta. In Psoriasis relapsing nature is most common, which suggests that it needs long term treatment. In modern there is no such treatment for psoriasis. Here is the case of 52 yrs old male patient diagnosed as Plaque psoriasis undergone treatment of Shodhan (Purification) i.e. Vaman (Emesis) as well as Shaman Chikitsa (Palitative treatment) having marked improvement. The study showed that combination of Ayurvedic modalities gives significant result in lakshnas (Symptoms) like Aswedana, Mahavastu, MastyaShakalopama.

Full textAbstract:
Psoriasis is an autoimmune skin disease characterized by red scaly patches over the skin. Broadly all the diseases of skin come under the umbrella of kustha. In ayurvedic text, Charaka samhita, kustha has been beautifully explained. Psoriasis is an immune mediated disease which mistakenly sends out faulty signals for a normal skin assuming it as a pathogen which causes overproduction of new skin cells. Fortunately, it is a non-contagious inflammatory skin disease. Psychological stress is one of the major triggering factors in the exacerbation of the disease. Ekkustha has similar features as like Psoriasis. Ayurveda is a holistic ap-proach particularly correcting the root cause through shodhana (panchakarma). While explaining the treatment for kustha, acharya chakarapani explains repetitive shodhana karma to be done on regular in-tervals to cure the disease. Hence a single case of ekkustha was given Raktamokshana followed by bahya lepa at regular interval to access the effect of the procedures. Different assessment criteria were used to monitor the improvements. There was significant relief in the scaling, discolouration of skin, elevated patches & redness of the skin lesion which explains that detoxification of the body reduces the inflamma-tory condition of the body by bringing back the normalcy of the dosha in the body

Kushtha is produced invariably by the vitiation of the seven factors i.e. 3 Doshas and 4 Dushyas But different types of pain, colour, shape, specific manifestation etc. are found in Kushtha because of Anshanshakalpana of the Doshas. Accordingly, Charaka explained Kushthas are in fact of innumerable types, but for systemic study they are classified into two major groups 7 Maha Kushtha & 11 Kshudra Kushtha.
Ekakushtha is one of the Kshudra Kushtha. It is the prime among the Kshudra Kushtha, hence Bhavaprakasha mention it as Ekakushtha. Almost all symptoms are vata-kapha predominant & even tri dosha involvement and for this Shodhana Chikitsa i.e. vamana and virechana are the best line of treatment. We can use these modality as per requirement. Kandu get relieved completely (100 ٪) in all both the groups. Low effect was seen in Aswedanam i. e.

Skin is the largest organ of human body. Its size and external location makes it susceptible to various disorders. Skin diseases are mostly caused by infections like bacteria, fungi etc. All the skin diseases in Ayurveda have been classified under the broad heading of ‘Kushta’ which are further classified into Mahakushta and Kshudrakushta. Dadru is one amongst them. It is Raktapradoshaja vyadhi having kapha, pitta dominance. Due to similarity of all symptoms Dadru can be very well correlated with Tinea corporis which is a fungal infection especially caused due to poor hygienic conditions. In Ayurveda Shodhan and Shaman chikitsa is mainly indicated in Kushtha. A 50 yrs old female came with complaints of round and reddish patches over abdominal region with severe itching for 20 days. She was treated with Arogyavardhini vati, Gandhak rasayan, Gomutra siddha haritaki internally and Karanj oil and S-kin powder externally for 14 days. After completion of treatment, significant improvement was observed in the parameters like Kandu (itching), Raaga (Erythema), Pidika (eruptions) and Utsaana mandala (elevated circular skin lesion). In Samhita repeated shodhana is indicated in Kushtha hence nityavirechana in the form of Gomutra siddha haritaki was given. Arogyavardhini vati, Gandhak rasayan, Karanj oil and S-kin powder having Kushtaghna, Kandughana and Krumighna properties help in elimination of aggravated doshaja thus breaks the samprapti of the vyadhi. From this case study it can be concluded that Ayurvedic formulations are effective in the management of Dadru kushta.

Ayurveda described various skin diseases under the single heading Kushta. In Charaka Samhita, Acharya Charaka explained Ashtadasha Kushtas in two main categories namely ‘Maha Kushta’ and ‘Kshudra Kushta’. Kushta is tridoshaja vyadi, however, the symptoms appear according to the dosha predominance. Vipadika is one of the Kshudra Kushta with predominance of vata kapha doshas and it is charactrised by Pani Pada sputana (fissures in palms and soles) and Teevra vedana (severe pain). According to clinical manifestations, Vipadika is more similar to ‘Planto Palmar Psoriasis’ which is long lasting Auto Immune disease. It is found to be 3-4% of all Psoriasis cases. In modern science, many treatment modalities are available to treat the disease. They may cause many side effects and recurrence after subside is also very common which gave a big scope to alternative system of medicines to treat Vipadika. In the present case study, the line of management followed was mentioned by Acharya Charaka, according to dosha Predominance. The patient, initially administered sneha pana with Maha Tiktaka gritha for 7 days which was beneficial to pacify pitta dosha and kapha dosha utkleshana before Vamana. Later on, Vamana therapy was conducted to eliminate kapha dosha which gave good symptomatic relief to the patient. However, in view of the severity, chronicity and recurrence of the disease, Mridu Lavana jala Avagaha Sweda followed by Padhabyanga with pinda taila was also performed which resulted in excellent improvement in very short period of time.

It is contagious, spread person to person by malaja krimi through sweda (contact with infected person, contact with clothes of infected person). Methods-the method used is a survey method with cross sectional approach, with a total sample 103 patients. The epidemiological characteristics of respondents surveyed consisted of the characteristics (santarpanaja nidan, gender, knowledge, occupation & personal hygiene), the characteristic of the place (population density), and the characteristic time diagnosed (months). Results-The results showed that the epidemiological characteristics of dadru were more in female sex (65.04%), with low elementary education (87.37%), had less knowledge about disease (76.69%), did not maintain personal hygiene enough (57.28%), excessive intake of santapanaja nidan (91.06), residential density had not qualified (88.34%) and most likely diagnosed in the period of June to August (57.27%). Conclusion-The incidence of dadru in Kolkata are increasing day by day. So, proper treatment protocol is needed to treat these patients. In Ayurveda, different types of preventive measures including dincharya have been mentioned to prevent spreading of oupasargika roga. All these preventive measures can be applied in prevention of dadru.

Skin disorder constitutes one of the largest groups of health problems in general practice. Good skin is an integral part of health. In Ayurveda, all skin diseases are explained under a single heading of Kushta. Sidhma Kushta is an Oupasargikaroga. All Kushta is due to aggravation of Tridosas. These aggravated Dosha vitiates Dushyas like Twak, Raktha, Mamsa and Ambu by circulating in them and produce Vaivarnya.1According to Susrutha, whenever the aggravated Doshas get stagnated, Mandalas appear at that site.2 Kushta are innumerable in number based on the permutation and combination of Doshas and Dushyas, but mainly they are divided into seven Maha Kushta and eleven Kshudra Kushta. Sidhma is a variety of Kushtaroga according to all the authors of Brihathrayi and Laghutrayi. However, Charaka classified it under Maha Kushta and other Acharyas like Susrutha and Vagbhata brought it under Kshudra Kushta. By Dalhana's commentary it can be understood that Sidhma is of two types, Sidhma Kushta and Pushpitha Sidhma.3 Symptoms of Tinea versicolor are similar to that of Lakshanas of Sidhma Kushta, Acharya Susrutha has said that Krimi is also one of the cause for Kushta and Tinea versicolor is a superficial mycoses caused by a fungi called Malassezia furfur. Understanding of Lakshanas and Samprapti plays an important role in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of the disease. So, an attempt is made to analyse and understand the concept of Sidhma Kushta.

Data Kementerian Kesehatan RI per April 2019 menunjukkan bahwa Provinsi Jawa Tengah merupakan salahsatu provinsi yang memiliki jumlah kasus baru kusta sebanyak 1.445 atau 8,49 persen dari total jumlah kasus di Indonesia. RSUD Kelet sebagai salahsatu RS rujukan pasien kusta perlu meningkatkan kualitas layanan terhadap pasien kusta walaupun sudah beralih menjadi RSUD. Oleh sebab itu, perlu dilakukan penelitian mengenai konsekuensi penyebaran penyakit kusta terhadap pelayanan pasien kusta di Provinsi Jawa Tengah dan bagaimana kualitas pelayanan kepada pasien kusta dan umum, serta bagaimana strategi RSUD Kelet dalam meningkatkan kualitas pelayanan pasien. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif, dengan metode pengumpulan data melalui telaah dokumen, observasi, FGD dan wawancara mendalam. Lokasi penelitian ini di RSUD Kelet Kabupaten Jepara dan beberapa kabupaten/kota yang terdeteksi kasus kusta (Kabupaten Blora, Brebes, Kota Pekalongan, dll). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dampak penyebaran penyakit kusta terhadap pelayanan pasien kusta di Jawa Tengah saat ini menyebabkan layanan penderita kusta di faskes belum optimal karena sistem rujukan yang berjenjang, akses ke RS rujukan terlalu jauh, tata laksana dan perawatan untuk pasien kusta di faskes masih kurang memadai dan stigma negatif dari masyarakat. Perubahan status RS khusus kusta menjadi RSUD Kelet terhadap pelayanan kusta tidak memberikan dampak negatif namun malah mampu menjadi supporting system bagi pelayanan penderita kusta serta mampu memberikan dampak positif peningkatan pendapatan RSUD Kelet. Strategi pengembangan ke depan yaitu ingin mengembangkan RSUD Kelet sebagai center of excellent, RS pusat penelitian kanker dan RS kusta berbasis penelitian serta mengintegrasikan antara kesehatan, lingkungan dan wisata dengan pengembangan kawasan sekitar RSUD Kelet Jepara.

Full textAbstract:
Indonesia menduduki urutan ketiga setelah India dan Brazil dengan jumlah penderita kusta sebanyak 20.023 kasus. Prevalensi ini akan terus meningkat karena adanya stigma yang berkembang dimasyarakat yang membuat penderita kusta malu untuk mencari pengobatan. Sistematik review ini menggunakan sintesis artikel terkait dari empat database, yaitu : Pubmed, Google Scholar, Proquest, dan Garuda, serta secondary search. Sebanyak 8 studi terkait stigma masyarakat terhadap pasien kusta yang telah diuji kualitasnya dengan berpedoman pada PRISMA dan dilakukan skrining oleh 2 orang dengan menggunakan standar CASP (Critical Appraisal Skill Program). Lima studi yang diulas menjelaskan bahwa masyarakat memiliki stigma terhadap pasien kusta dimana pasien kusta tidak boleh bergaul atau kontak langsung dengan lingkungan sekitar sehingga mereka harus dikucilkan, dua studi menjelaskan bahwa pasien kusta memiliki perasaan malu, sedih, bingung, takut dan tidak berdaya menghadapi masyarakat. Studi yang disertakan memberikan hasil yang sangat signifikan terhadap pola pengobatan pasien kusta terkait stigma masyarakat dimana terjadi penurunan minat pasien kusta untuk berobat dan mencari kesembuhan. Perlu diberikan intervensi pendidikan kesehatan dan informasi tentang penyakit kusta baik kepada pasien maupun masyarakat, namun keterlibatan semua pihak/lintas sektor perlu dipertimbangkan.

Full textAbstract:
Latar belakang. Sepuluh persen kasus kusta baru yang terdeteksi di Indonesia merupakan kusta anak. Pemberian MDT (multi drug therapy) khususnya komponen dapson dapat menimbulkan efek samping anemia hemolitik. Tujuan. Mengetahui prevalensi dan faktor risiko terjadinya anemia pada pasien kusta anak dengan terapi MDT.Metode. Penelitian cross sectional dilakukan di RS Kusta Sitanala Tangerang pada bulan April-Desember 2013. Subyek penelitian adalah pasien kusta anak usia kurang dari 18 tahun yang diambil secara consecutive sampling. Kriteria inklusi adalah semua pasien kusta anak dengan terapi MDT yang setuju dengan informed consent. Terapi kusta selain MDT atau mendapatkan terapi rutin lain, putus obat MDT >6 bulan atau sedang mengalami reaksi kusta tidak diikutsertakan. Kadar hemoglobin diperiksa dengan metode Cyanmethemoglobin. Analisis menggunakan uji chi square dan Fisher’s exact. Hasil. Didapatkan 70 pasien dengan kadar hemoglobin rata-rata 10,8 g/dL pada kelompok anemia, dan 12,5 g/dL tidak anemia. Empat puluh dari pasien tersebut (57,1%) mengalami anemia. Rerata indeks eritrosit menunjukkan anemia normositik normokromik. Pasien yang mendapatkan terapi MDT ≥3 bulan berisiko untuk mengalami anemia (PR: 2,7; IK95%:1,02-7,23). Faktor usia (PR:1,7; IK95%: 0,64-4,35), jenis kelamin (PR:1,3; IK95%: 0,49-3,26), status gizi (PR:1,6; IK95%: 0,57-4,25), dan jenis terapi (PR:0,4; IK95%: 0,04-4,31) bukan merupakan faktor risiko terjadinya anemia.Kesimpulan. Lama terapi ≥3 bulan merupakan faktor risiko anemia pada kusta anak dengan terapi MDT.
