Gridhrasi Management by Siravedha W.S.R. to Sciatica: A Review

A pain-dominant lifestyle illness called gridhrasi (sciatica) causes discomfort that radiates from the Sphik Pradesha, back, or to the foot. Charaka says that the processes of Siravedha, Snehana, Bastikarma, and Agni karma all have the potential to regulate it. The ailments are described in all of the classic Ayurvedic texts. However, Sushruta, the surgeon, has explained every aspect of the illness. Similar to Basti in Kayachikitsa, Siravedha is regarded as half of the therapeutic measure in Shalyatantra. For improved outcomes, Siravedha is an emergency management technique used by Vataja Nanatmaja Vyadhi like Gridhrasi. The sites of the four Anguli above and below the Janu Sandhi have been used for siravedha in gridhrasi.
