Abstract

In the Indian context, the formal description of wound care has been widely elaborated in the three great treaties (Brahatrayi) of Ayurveda i.e., Charak Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Ashtang Sangrah. Madhu has been described by them as Vrana Ropaka. A 42-year-old patient came to us with Ignored 10 days old open fracture of the Base 2nd Metatarsal with an infected wound right foot. After debridement of the wound and application of Madhu was done for 3 weeks, and B/K POP Slab applied. The treatment plan followed may be adopted in the future for cases.
