Avascular necrosis (AVN) is a complex disease influenced by various factors, primarily affecting a younger demographic. If not treated properly it can lead to femoral head collapse and severe joint pain. The characteristics of Avascular necrosis can be correlated with Asthimajjavruta vata according to Ayurveda science. Bhedo-Asthiparvanam, Sandhishula, Satata Ruk, Mamsabalakshaya and Asvapna are major symptoms of disease. Ayurvedic medications and non-medicinal therapies of Panchkarma may help to halt further necrosis and revitalize bone health. Guggulu, Giloy, Kantkari, Patol, Vasa, Babbula, Shunthi, Pippali, Maricha, Amalaki, Haritaki and Vibhitaki, etc. are drugs which offers anti-inflammatory and pain relieving effects in AVN. The Agnikarma as thermal cauterization can stimulate healing if heat applied to the skin or superficial tissues. The other therapies of Panchkarma reduce muscle tension and enhance relaxation thus contributing towards the therapeutic management of AVN.
