Abstract Introduction – A chronic wound is one that does not heal in a predictable sequence of stages. Ayurveda has given a unique treatment modality i.e., avachurnana is one among them and it serves the purpose of Vrana Sodhana (Wound debridement/cleansing).

Case Report – A 80-year-old male presented with complaints of non-healing wound on the left foot for 2 months with history of blunt trauma, received symptomatic treatment from local doctor and got quite relief but no history of taking rest or regular dressings which aggravated the symptoms, on examination revealed ulcer 5×3 cm in size on posterolateral aspect of the left foot region. Chronic wound management is still a difficult task and even Acharya Sushruta explained the concept of avachurnana and also
indicated for the treatment of Dushtavrana (Chronic wound). In this case will review wound healing physiology in 3 stages and discuss the current approach for treating a wound.

Diagnosis – Case was diagnosed as Chronic wound as per contemporary science and Dushtavrana as per Ayurveda.

Intervention – The case was managed by kshara avachurnana and jatyadi ghrita as an external application.
Kaishora Guggulu,triphala guggulu,gandhaka rasayana and Manjishtadi Kashaya administered internally.

Outcome - The wound showed marked improvement within 28 days and complete healing was achieved in 2 months.
Conclusion - The adopted Ayurveda treatment i.e., kshara avachurnana has given promising results in the management of Dushtavrana (Chronic wound).
