Literature review on selected Ayurvedic formula in the management of wound healing

Wounds have been widespread issues since ancient times. Although the restoration of tissue is a normal reaction to any form of injury, the healing of an open wound is delayed by bacterial contamination. In the medical science of Ayurveda, there are numerous pearls that can be used to cure wounds without any complications. Our Āchāryās (teachers) categorized the medications related to Vrana Shōdhana (wound cleaning) and Vrana Rōpana (wound healing) and provided a general description of the treatment concepts of wound management. Six plants with various therapeutic properties, cow ghee, and rock salt make up a particular Ayurveda formula. In order to manage wound healing, this study reviewed a few Ayurvedic formulas that are mentioned in the Bhāvaprakāsha (classical text) based on their pharmacological and pharmacodynamics capabilities. The main goal of this investigation is to examine how the chemicals in this recipe affect wound healing. Information about wound was acquired from Ayurvedic scriptures, contemporary texts, and earlier research studies (from primary and secondary sources). Afterwards a survey of the literature was done on those six herbs. Also, these selected herbs were examined for their Pancha Padārtha (5 elements of the herb) and pharmacological qualities. Due to the fact that the chosen formula was primarily made up of Kapha, Pitta and Vāta Shamana (pacify humors of body) it was noted that the Ayurvedic pharmacodynamics qualities and actions (karmas) for wound healing were found. As a result, the effectiveness of the chosen Ayurvedic formula in managing wound healing can be demonstrated.
