Case report shows significant improvement in asthma symptoms in a child using Ayurvedic therapy, suggesting effective management options.
Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by hyper responsiveness of the bronchial tubes, leading to recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and cough. It occurs due to airway inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and increased mucus production, causing reversible airway obstruction. In Ayurveda, this presentation closely aligns with Tamaka Shwasa, a condition involving Vata–Kapha aggravation and Pranavaha Srotas dysfunction. This case report describes the management of a 5-year-old child diagnosed with Tamaka Shwasa using Ayurvedic therapy. Significant symptomatic improvement was observed following tailored formulations and supportive yoga–marma interventions.
