Grahani roga is a disease of significant clinical relevance in the modern era. It is a disease caused by a faulty lifestyle, which includes defective dietary habits, regimen and psychological factors. It resembles the symptoms of Ulcerative colitis. It is a form of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and ulcers in the lining of the large intestine, especially in the rectum. Aims and objectives: To evaluate the effect of Piccha Basti along with Shirodhara in Grahani roga. Materials and methods: Takra Basti and Piccha Basti followed by Anuvasana Basti with Changeryadi ghrita in Kala Basti pattern, Shiro dhara with Medha kwatha ksheerapaka and shamana oushadhis were administered. Result: The treatment adopted is effective in the management of Grahani and has shown significant changes in the signs and symptoms of Grahani roga. Discussion: Takra Basti and Piccha Basti reduce the inflammation by its grahi, deepana and picchila guna. It also improves the functioning of Grahani. Piccha basti, due to its picchila guna, forms the coating over the intestine, thereby preventing further mucosa damage. Conclusion: Shodhana, shamana yoga, and dietic modification give maximum benefits. Hence, an effort has been made to treat Ulcerative colitis through Panchakarma.
