The Management of Bronchial Asthma (<i>Tamak Shwasa</i>) through Panchakarma Procedure with <i>Ishvaku</i> (Lagenariasiceraria) <i>Vamana</i>: A Case Report

Background Bronchial asthma, a hypersensitivity illness, is rising quickly in the modern world, particularly in wealthy nations. However, according to clinical features, bronchial asthma and Ayurvedic Tamaka Shwasa are similar diseases. Asthma is incurable, according to traditional medical knowledge. Both patients and doctors are looking at complementary and alternative systems of medicine as options because current prescriptions do not offer adequate treatment for terminal and long-term cures. Ayurvedic medicine has the potential to be a viable and efficient treatment option for bronchial asthma. Vaman karma is helpful for treatment globally so that people worldwide can keep faith in it based on scientific evidence. The first line of treatment for Tamakshwasa’s Utkleshita vastha is Vamana. To determine Vamana Karma’s involvement in Tamak shwas, a season it connected to Tamak shwasa has been searched for and attempted to be established in this case study. Purpose This study aimed to assess the efficacy of Ayurvedic management, including specific Ishwaku vaman karma, in Tamaka Shwasa. Materials and Methods A single case study of a 21-year-old man diagnosed with bronchial asthma. He was presented with frequent allergy due to dust, had an onset of sneezing due to cold weather, had a complaint of cold and cough on and off since childhood, and had a history of pneumonia in childhood. Observation and Outcome A 9-day symptomatic patient assessment was completed. The patient’s overall quality of life was greatly enhanced, and the outcome was satisfactory. In conclusion, the above-mentioned regimen significantly improved the management of bronchial asthma.
