VATAJA GRAHANI [IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME]

Presenter- Dr.Lalita Suranagi , 2nd year PG Scholar

A 19-year-old female patient, Ramya, presented with symptoms of altered bowel habits, urgency for defecation immediately after meals, and unsatisfactory evacuation, suggestive of Grahani (~Irritable Bowel Syndrome).

Treatment:Patient was administered Ksheerabasti in a Yoga Basti pattern (alternate Niruha and Anuvasana with milk-based medicated enema), targeting Agni Deepana, Srotoshodhana, and Vata-Pitta shamana.

Outcome:Post-treatment, the patient showed marked clinical improvement, with reduced bowel frequency, better evacuation, and decreased urgency. The progress was objectively assessed using the IBS Severity Scoring System (IBS-SSS), demonstrating significant score reduction, indicating effective management of Grahani through Ayurvedic intervention.
