摘要
Lumbar spondylosis is a common condition that is quite prevalent, affecting 57% of Indian men. Ayurveda, an indigenous medical system, is highly efficient in treating this ailment when it is in a mild to moderate state. This case report aims to provide a detailed account of a successfully managed case of lumbar spondylosis characterized by severe lumbar pain. A 59-year-old man, who has been suffering from lumbar spondylosis for the last 8 years, was presented with complaints of severe to moderate low back pain, disability, and pain in both legs. According to Ayurvedic principles, the condition was diagnosed as "Katigraha," and a nine-day treatment plan, including three Niruha Basti consecutively, followed by one Anuvasan Basti with the use of Ayurvedic medications was suggested. The lumbar pain severity fell from 8 to 2 points, while the leg pain decreased from 7 to 1 point. The Oswestry Low Back Disability Index (ODI) showed a significant reduction, from 49 to 18. The flexion and extension range of motion grew from 1 to 3 cm, and from 1 to 2 cm, respectively. The case study indicates a reduction in severe low back pain, but further investigation is required to determine the underlying mechanisms.
