SUCCESSFUL MANAGEMENT OF POST-SNAKE BITE ULCER WITH AYURVE-DA: A CASE STUDY
Abstract
Venomous snake bites can cause localised pain, swelling, convulsions, and paralysis. While the WHO protocol emphasises reassurance, immobilisation, and medical intervention, survivors often develop non-healing ulcers and necrosis of skin, muscles, tendons, and bones. Proper wound care is crucial to prevent complications. This article explores the management of post-snakebite ulcers using Ayurvedic therapeutics, highlighting its potential benefits for promoting wound healing and preventing further damage.
