📄 Abstract
Venous ulcer is the complication of varicose veins or deep vein thrombosis.It is one of the most serious chronic venous insufficiency complications. The overall incidence rate is 0.76% in men and 1.42% in women1.This is the commonest ulcer of the leg. The basic cause of venous ulcer is abnormal venous hypertension in the lower-third of the leg, ankle and dorsum of the foot due to damaged venous valves that prevent backflow of blood.2Treating venous ulcers is a difficult task though a very good number of treatments modalities are available in allied sciences. In Ayurveda, this condition is considered as Dushtavrana. It can be managed with the specific shodhana therapy. So, the same treatment protocol was used to treat the case discussed here, present case study deals with a male patient aged 63years, having scab like ulcers in the left lower limb since 6months .The patient was N/K/C/O Diabetes mellitus, Hypertension and any other systemic disorder.
