Herbal Remedies for Eosinophilic Lung Disease / Pulmonary Eosinophilia

Abstract

Eosinophils are one of the components of White blood cells (WBCs). Eosinophilia is defined as an unusually high number of Eosinophils in your blood. Eosinophilic Lung Disease occurs when your lungs (pulmonary system) fail to infiltrate eosinophils into the lung compartments. According to WHO, an estimated 120 million people in tropical and subtropical regions get infected and suffer from Eosinophilic Lung Disease. In this article, we will discuss the several causes, common to severe symptoms, complications, and ayurvedic medications for the management of this lung disease. Read the whole article for complete and useful information. Let’s start!

 

Eosinophilic Lung Disease / Pulmonary Eosinophilia

Introduction

Eosinophilic Lung Disease also known as Pulmonary Eosinophilia (PE) is a pulmonary syndrome in response to trapped microfilariae in the lung tissue. Eosinophilia can be mild, moderate, or severe depending upon the immunity and other factors in each individual. Drug-induced Eosinophilic Lung Disease is the most common form of cause of its occurrence. The severity of the infection is quite high. Eosinophilic Lung Disease needs to be differentiated from other lung-related disorders such as- asthma, pneumonia, certain allergies, tuberculosis, etc. as the symptoms can be somewhat similar but the line of treatment in each disorder is different. The ayurvedic treatment for Eosinophilic Lung Disease is mentioned in detail in the following article.

Ayurvedic Aspect 

There is no direct correlation between Eosinophilia and Eosinophilic Lung Disease in Ayurveda. But some references in Charak Samhita are identified that are similar to the symptoms of Eosinophilic Lung Disease, which include nasal sinus, wheezing, chest congestion, etc. The treatment focuses on balancing disturbed doshas and enhancing immunity to deal with the infection. The detailed treatment recommended in patients with lung disorders includes dietary and lifestyle modifications with a special yoga and certain herbal medications that are described in detail with their usage and mode of working further in the article.

Ayurvedic Treatment of Bartholin Gland Carcinoma

BARTHOLIN GLAND CARCINOMA

ABSTRACT

It mostly occurs in females of middle age or older ones (post-menopausal women). It is a rare disorder, in only less than 1% of female genital tract cancers and 5% of vulvar cancers. The exact pathogenesis of this carcinoma is unknown whereas it may be due to various infections of genital tract.

The bartholin gland carcinoma is a type of cancer of the vulvar region in the bartholin gland. This condition typically presents with a painless mass like structure in one side of vagina opening in females. This mass can be big or small and may be deep under the skin or near the lying surface. The most of bartholin gland carcinoma appears from squamous cell carcinoma. Due to the deep location of the bartholin gland and lack of early clinical symptoms mostly this cancerous condition is misdiagnosed. The prognosis of this disease is poor due to misdiagnosis and delayed treatment. If it is early diagnosed then proper management can be done of bartholin gland carcinoma and get cured. Vulval cancers are the fourth most common gynecological cancers following uterine, ovary and uterus. The most common method for spreading lesions is lymphatic.

AYURVEDIC OVERVIEW

In Ayurveda bartholin gland cyst can be correlated with “yoni kand” (yoni= vagina, kand= tuberous growth, as it is a vaginal disease presenting mass-like growth in vagina. It is tridosha disease where vata dosha is predominant. In classical texts there are four types described

Due to these causative factors, all tridoshas (vata, pitta and kapha) get aggravated and lead to formation of disease. Treatment of yoni kanda (vaginal cancer) acc. to Ayurveda are as follows

      • Yoni puran ( vaginal filling)- keeping medicinal powder in vagina such as gairik (red ore) , amarasti (kernel of mango)
      • Yoni pichu (vaginal sponging) – Mushika taila is used for sponging in which oil is extracted from a rat’s intestine.
