                                                            CASE DISCUSSION

KRIMI ROGA

Presenter- Dr. Megha M Pujari, 2nd year PG Scholar

The case involves a 50-year-old male farmer diagnosed with Kaphaja Krimi Roga (intestinal worm infestation), presenting with whitish worms in stool, postprandial urgency, giddiness, and weight loss. He had multiple prior treatments, including allopathic and Ayurvedic interventions, with only temporary relief before recurrence of symptoms.Patient was diagnosed as Abhyantara Kaphaja Krimi [Trichinosis-Trichinella spiralis

Management included Deepana, Pachana, and Virechana karma , followed by internal medicines like Krimikutara Rasa, Vidangarishta, and Hingwashtaka Churna. These aimed to improve digestion, expel parasites, and restore gut immunity. The Virechana procedure removed morbid doshas, creating an unfavorable environment for parasite growth

The outcome showed significant improvement, with resolution of symptoms after therapy. The case underlined the importance of Ahara-Nidana Parivarjana (diet and cause avoidance), lifestyle regulation, and maintaining long-term digestive health to prevent recurrence. It also highlighted the scope of Ayurveda in managing recurrent parasitic infections and its potential link to gut microbiome modulation.
