Abstract Amavata, a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by joint pain, swelling, and stiffness, closely resembles Rheumatoid Arthritis in its clinical presentation and progressive disability. The clinical spectrum of Amavata demonstrates striking parallels with Rheumatoid Arthritis, a systemic autoimmune disorder affecting 0.5-1% of the global population, characterized by progressive joint destruction, functional disability, and diminished quality of life.
Conventional management of Rheumatoid Arthritis relies heavily on NSAIDs, corticosteroids, and DMARDs, which often leads to adverse effects on prolong use. This therapeutic limitation has intensified the search for safer, more holistic treatment modalities.
Ayurveda offers a comprehensive therapeutic framework through principles of Ama Pachana, Agni Deepana, and Vata Shamana. This case report presents a 40-year-old female patient who presented with a 2.5-year history of multiple joint pain, moderate swelling, morning stiffness, and restricted movements. The patient was administered Maharasnadi Kwatha and Panchsama Churna for one month, complemented by individualized dietary and lifestyle modifications.
Clinical assessment utilizing both subjective symptom scores and objective functional measurements revealed significant improvement across all evaluated parameters including pain intensity, joint swelling, morning stiffness duration, and range of motion. The therapeutic response suggests that the combination of Maharasnadi Kwatha and Panchsama Churna effectively addresses core pathophysiological mechanisms of Amavata by correcting Agnimandya, digesting Ama, and pacifying aggravated Vata Dosha.
