Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disorder with autoimmune features, often associated with psoriasis. Its prevalence in Indian psoriasis patients is around 8.47%. In Ayurveda, early skin and muscle symptoms relate to Uttana Vatarakta, while joint involvement indicates Gambhira Vatarakta, involving Vata, Rakta, and deeper dhatus. A 9-year-old female with chronic itching, burning, and recent joint pain was treated with Shamana and Shodhana Chikitsa. Marked improvement in both skin and joint symptoms was observed, highlighting the effectiveness of Ayurvedic management in PsA.
