Abstract

Diabetic ulcers are a debilitating complication of diabetes, affecting millions globally. The prevalence of diabetes continues to rise, leading to an increase in secondary complications such as chronic wounds, including Dushta Vrana (diabetic ulcers). These ulcers are challenging to treat due to impaired immune response, poor circulation, and delayed wound healing, often leading to infection, prolonged hospital stays, and even amputations. In Ayurveda, Meha Vrana (diabetic ulcers) require both Shodhana (wound cleansing) and Ropana (healing). Tutthakadi Malahara, with its combined properties of Puyaghna (pus- cleansing), Vranasravahara (discharge control), and Vrana Ropana (wound healing), offers a promising alternative.
