Trividha Pariksha – Diagnostic Importance And Its Application In Clinical Practices

Health is a state of equilibrium of the Dosha, Dhatu, and Mala along with the proper functioning of Indriya, Manas, and Atma. To treat the disease, it is necessary to keep a balance between Doshas and to bring back them to their normal condition. The prime duty of any Physician is to diagnose the ailment of the patient. The diagnosis cannot be done just based on one type of examination. In Ayurveda, different types of examinations have been mentioned which were and still are useful in diagnosing the various diseases in patients. These basic methods which are practiced today, with modern technologies play significant role in diagnosis of disease. The purpose is to study the application of Trividha pariksha in current clinical practices and to study darshan, sparshana, and prashna pariksha from Ayurvedic texts and their application in today's day-to-day practice. Various ayurvedic and modern texts, research papers and information available on the internet were reviewed. Trividha pariksha is the root of all diagnostic methods.
