Diabetic foot ulcer: a case study
Prevalence of diabetic complications is a burden to the society in the present. Number of amputation and deaths associated with it are increasing day by day; such facts urge to clinicians and researchers to develop more effective wound treatments for patients suffering from diabetic non healing wounds. A male patient, 48 years old, who was diagnosed with diabetes mellitus over ten years, presented with a non-healing ulcer since two months. He was treated for Dusta vrana (a non-healing wound) using both internal and externally Ayurvedic therapies. The wound healed fully after four months.
