ABSTRACT

21st century is a world of industrialization & fast life. This industrialization gives the world a lot of progress, but somehow in this progress we forgot the nature. We are doing various things against nature and this is a very big cause of disease. In today‟s stressful modern urbanized living, incidence of allergic diseases is considerably increasing. The rapid industrial actions, excessive crowding, increasing pollutions are some of the factors responsible for this. Today the whole world is looking behind Ayurveda to treat various chronic conditions on which other system of medicine doesn‟t have any answer. On this context Peenas Roga (Chronic Sinusitis) is one such disease described in the classics of Ayurveda. Peenas Roga is due to vitiated Vata and Kapha Dosha. The patient feels as some smoke is coming out of Nasa (nostril) or is blocked or becomes very dry and doesn‟t feel any fragrance. This disease almost resembles the symptoms of Pratisyaya Roga. The Peenas Roga closely resembles Chronic Sinusitis as described in modern medicine. During last few years various researches have been done in Ayurveda and in modern medicine for this disease. The researches are still going on but the proper remedy is still to be searched. That‟s why The Panchamrita Rasa described in Rasendra Sara Samgraha is chosen for the research purpose to study its efficacy with special reference to Peenas Roga.
