Article Of The Month: Ayurvedic Treatment for Psoriasis/Elephantiasis
In ayurveda, Filariasis is known as Shlipada ('Shli' means elephant and 'pada' means foot). It is the disease in which foot looks like foot of elephant. This is a chronic disease and is popularly known as Elephantiasis.
Now-a-days every one knows that Filaria or Elephantiasis is caused by a parasite nematode-Wuchereria bancrofti, which are transmitted through the Culex mosquitoes. This parasite when released into human body , causes the blockage of lymphatic system (lasika). Based upon the involvement and degree of affliction, lymphangitis or chyluria may also result. Elephantiasis mainly effects legs but can also affects the arms, breast and genitals.
Pathogenesis of Shlipada - Due to causes mentioned, all the three doshas are aggravated, predominantly Kapha Dosha increases. These Doshas are lodged in the inguinal region first and then gradually move downwards the feet. Due to lodging of Doshas in the leg, stony swellings resembling the foot of elephant are caused. Most commonly fever is also associated in this condition.
