COMPARATIVE STUDY OF AVEDHYA SIRA AND SIRA MARMA WITH W.S.R. TO URVI SIRA IN UPPER EXTREMITY

View through CrossRef
Acharya Sushruta described various surgeries meticulously. During the ancient time, Acharya Sushruta per-formed various major and minor surgeries with surprisingly great accuracy and thus was able to treat dread-ful diseases. The proper knowledge of Sharira was essential to meet this high standard of accuracy. Especial-ly, during performing any surgery or Sira Vedhan one must be aware of the vital points, Marma and the Avedhya Sira present in the body. This is because even a slight trauma to these may lead to severe compli-cations such as severe pain, any deformity or even death of a person. There are 107 Marmas and 98 Avedhya Siras mentioned by Acharya Sushruta. Most of the name of Avedhya Sira are same as nomencla-ture of Marma. For example, Brihati is a name of Avedhya Sira and is also a Marma. Here an effort has been made to study the role of Marma Sthan in confirmations of Avedhya Sira with special reference to Urvi (Bahavi) Sira in upper extremity. Keywords: Avedhya Sira, Marma, Urvi Sira
