Abstract

Because Kshar as or alkalis undertake the work of incision, puncture, and scarification in order to cure the derangements of Tridosha, Kshara is regarded as superior to all shastra karma (surgical procedures) and anu-shastra karma (para-surgical measures). One of the most prevalent diseases of the Mutravaha Srotas is Mutrashmari (urolithiasis), which is brought on by an imbalance between the components in the urinary system that promote and hinder the formation of stones. As Mutrashmari is kapha pradhana tridoshaja vyadhi, Acharya Sushruta indicates Paneeya Kshara in the same. As a result, it has been speculated that taking Kalyana Kshara by mouth, as mentioned by Ashtanga Hridaya, may help treat Mutrashmari. Hence, a description of Paneeya Kshara's urolithiasis is given in this article.

Keywords: Kshara, Paneeya Kshara, Ashmari.
