Role Of Pitta Prakruti In Fissure In Ano (Parikartika) and Management: An Ayurvedic Perspective

Abstract Abstract
Fissure in ano is a common anorectal disorder characterized by a longitudinal tear in the anal canal, usually associated with severe pain during and after defecation. In modern medicine, it is mainly attributed to trauma caused by passage of hard stool and increased anal sphincter tone. In Ayurveda, the condition resembles Parikartika, which is described in classical texts as severe cutting pain in the anal region resembling the sensation of being cut with a sharp instrument. Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of Prakruti (body constitution) in the development and progression of diseases. Among the three constitutional types, Pitta Prakruti individuals are more prone to inflammatory conditions due to the dominance of Agni and Ushna (heat) properties. These individuals often exhibit symptoms such as burning sensation, bleeding, and inflammation, which are commonly observed in fissure in ano. Dietary habits such as consumption of spicy, sour, and hot foods—commonly preferred by Pitta individuals—may aggravate Pitta Dosha and predispose them to anorectal disorders. Classical Ayurvedic texts describe the role of vitiated Pitta along with Vata in producing Parikartika by causing inflammation, tissue damage, and pain in the anal region. Management includes correction of Dosha imbalance through dietary regulation, herbal medications, local therapies, and lifestyle modifications. Modern treatment focuses on stool softeners, topical medications, and surgical procedures in chronic cases. Understanding the relationship between Pitta Prakruti and Parikartika helps in early prevention, individualized treatment, and improved therapeutic outcomes.
