Management of maxillary polyposis through siddha - A case report

A 45-year-old male with a 7-years history of recurrent antrochoanal polyp (ACP) and severe left nasal epistaxis sought Siddha treatment after conventional therapies failed. He was treated for 14 months with <i>Impooral ilagam</i>, Vasantha kusumakara mathirai, Adathodai manappagu, <i>Seenthil chooranam</i> and <i>Muthu parpam</i>, including drug holidays. Nasal bleeding reduced from daily episodes to once every two months and eventually ceased, with no recurrence during follow-up. This case suggests Siddha medicine may offer a promising non-invasive alternative for managing chronic ACP, warranting further investigation in larger studies.
