Ayurveda Perspectives on Bhagna and its Management through Shalyatantra: A Review
Abstract
The fracture is condition associated with injury of bones and joints, in Ayurveda it is termed as "Bhagna". The condition characterizes as break in movements/continuity of bones. There are two types of Bhagna i.e.; Sandhimukta and Kandabhagna, Sandhimukta can be correlated with dislocation while Kandabhagna means bony fracture. The Bhagna may occurs due to the nature of injury like physical trauma, accidents, slip, pressure bearing, excessive movements and bites of animals having hard teeth, etc. The Bhagna mainly occurs at two places Sandhi (joints) and Asandhi (other places except joints). Broadly Ayurveda described twelve types of fractures including Karaktaka, Ashvakarna, Churnita, Pichhita, Asthichhallita, Kandabhagna, Majjanugata, Atipaatita, Vakra, Chinna, Paatita and Sphutita. Ayurveda described many approaches for treating Bhagna such as; Lepana, Bandhana, Parisechana, Pradeha and Sandhi / Bhagna Sthaapana, etc. Present article summarizes various aspects of Bhagna and its Ayurveda management.
