A single case study on Varicocele
Abstract
A varicocele is a dilatation and tortuosity of Pampiniform venous plexus within the spermatic cord. The condition is important etiological factor in male infertility. References are not available in Ayurvedic classics about particular disease which resembles the clinical picture of varicocele. Varicocele can be correlated to Sirajagranthi of Vrushanakosa. This helps to draw some conclusions regarding the treatment plan-up for varicocele. Jalaukavacharana is very much effective in Sirajagranthi. Hence Jalaukavacharana is tried in varicocele which can be correlated to Sirajagranthi of Vrishanakosha. It is safe and affordable. In present study total 4 sittings of Jalaukacharana was done. Marked reduction in the symptoms like pain and swelling was observed after second sitting. Jalaukacharana is very much effective in management of varicocele.
