(Ratu pokuru wada mal) for Asrugdhara(Gampaha Wickramarachchi Ayurveda Institute, University of Kelaniya, 2014) Kumara, G.U.A.; Thisera, M.H.A.; Wakkumbura, H.P.Item A comparative clinical study on Nishādi Lepa and Nirgundi Saptaparni Lepa in the management of Stana Vidradhi.(Department of Marketing Management, University of Kelaniya,Sri Lanka, 2017) Kumara, G.U.A.; Pushpakumari, W.L.A.R.S.A breast abscess is a painful collection of pus that forms in the breast. Most abscesses develop just under the skin and are caused by a bacterial infection. Breast abscesses are painful, swollen lumps that may also be red, feel hot, cause the surrounding skin to swell and cause fever. In Ayurveda, it is co-related with Stana Vidradhi. This disease does not occur in unmarried women. It is, however, seen most in pregnant women and in women soon after parturition. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efcacy of Nishādi Lepa and Nirgundi Saptaparni Lepa on Stana Vidradhi comparatively. Randomly selected patients were divided into two groups and each group included 15 patients. Group A was given Nishādi Lepa and group B was treated with Nirgundi Saptaparni Lepa. Both groups were advised to apply the recommended paste once a day for a period of seven days continuously. Data were analyzed by calculating percentages of improvement separately. According to the results, 60% of patients completely cured in group A while 40% of patients completely cured in group B. Also, group A patients did not complain any adverse effects. But some patients of group B complained of allergic reactions. Hence, it can be concluded that Nishādi Lepa is more effective than Nirgundi Saptaparni Lepa in the management of Stana Vidradhi.Item Literature review on Hibiscus rosasinensis Linn (pokuruwada) plant(Gampaha Wickramarachchi Ayurveda Institute, University of Kelaniya, 2014) Kumara, G.U.A.Item Therapeutic effects of Yoga on the diseases of Śālākyatantra(Department of Shalya Shalakya,Gampaha Wickramarachchi Ayurveda Institute,University of Kelaniya,Sri Lanka, 2017) Kumara, G.U.A.; Karunaratne, H.K.B.M.S.Yoga, a philosophy in ancient India, is effective in maintaining health and curing diseases. This literature survey based on Hatha Yoga Pradipika was carried out in order to identify the therapeutic effect of Yoga on diseases which had been mentioned in Śālākyatantra. All types of Pranayama (Suryabhedana, Ujjayi, Seetkari, Sheetali, Bhramari, Bhastrika, Moorchha and Plavini pranayama) are important to maintain healthy respiratory functions, while sixty seven of Shatkarma have various therapeutic effects on curing diseases belonging to Śālākyatantra and thirty three of Mudra and Bandha in Hatha Yoga Pradipika have therapeutic effects on diseases that belong to Śālākyatantra according to the ndings of the present study. Although all the Asanas contribute to maintain healthy body, Simhagarjanasana (roaring lion pose) is the most effective in alleviation of such diseases including numerous throat, mouth, nose and ear disorders. It is particularly useful in toning the throat and eradicating stammering. Dhauti and Neti have many therapeutic effects in curing diseases in Śālākyatantra. Trataka has many therapeutic effects in curing eye disorders such as eye strain, myopia, astigmatism, and early stages of cataract, according to the ndings. It can be concluded that various types of Yoga have therapeutic effects on diseases which have been described in Śālākyatantra.Item ආයුර්වේදෝක්ත ක්වාථ පරිභාෂාව පිළිබඳ විමර්ශනාත්මක අධ්යයනයක්(Gampaha Wickramarachchi Ayurveda Institute, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2016) Kumara, G.U.A.; Gamlath, N.W.G.N.D.Item ගර්භිණී, ප්රසව සහ සූතිකා පරිචර්යා පිළිබඳ සමික්ෂණාත්මක අධ්යයනයක්(Gampaha Wickramarachchi Ayurveda Institute, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2016) Niwanthaka, W.G.K.; Kumara, G.U.A.; Thisera, M.H.A.
