Abstract

Lumbar spondylosis is a common condition that is quite prevalent, affecting 57% of Indian men. Ayurveda, an indigenous medical system, is highly efficient in treating this ailment when it is in a mild to moderate state. This case report aims to provide a detailed account of a successfully managed case of lumbar spondylosis characterized by severe lumbar pain. A 59-year-old man, who has been suffering from lumbar spondylosis for the last 8 years, was presented with complaints of severe to moderate low back pain, disability, and pain in both legs. According to Ayurvedic principles, the condition was diagnosed as "Katigraha," and a nine-day treatment plan, including three Niruha Basti consecutively, followed by one Anuvasan Basti with the use of Ayurvedic medications was suggested. The lumbar pain severity fell from 8 to 2 points, while the leg pain decreased from 7 to 1 point. The Oswestry Low Back Disability Index (ODI) showed a significant reduction, from 49 to 18. The flexion and extension range of motion grew from 1 to 3 cm, and from 1 to 2 cm, respectively. The case study indicates a reduction in severe low back pain, but further investigation is required to determine the underlying mechanisms.

用阿育吠陀疗法成功治疗腰椎病患者的严重腰痛:病例报告。
腰椎病是一种常见病,发病率相当高,57% 的印度男性都会受到影响。阿育吠陀是印度本土的医疗体系,在治疗轻度至中度腰椎病方面非常有效。本病例报告旨在详细介绍一个成功治愈的腰椎病病例,该病例以剧烈腰痛为特征。一名 59 岁的男子患腰椎病已有 8 年之久,主诉为严重至中度腰痛、残疾和双腿疼痛。根据阿育吠陀医学原理,他的病症被诊断为 "Katigraha",医生建议他接受为期九天的治疗,包括连续三次 Niruha Basti 和一次 Anuvasan Basti,并服用阿育吠陀药物。腰部疼痛的严重程度从 8 点下降到 2 点,腿部疼痛从 7 点下降到 1 点。Oswestry 腰背残疾指数(ODI)从 49 显著下降到 18。屈伸活动范围分别从 1 厘米增加到 3 厘米,从 1 厘米增加到 2 厘米。该病例研究表明,严重腰背痛有所减轻,但还需要进一步研究以确定其根本机制。
