Abstract

Ardhavabhedaka is one of the Shirorogas characterized by severe pain in one half of the head. It is periodic in occurrence. If poorly treated or when not treated properly it can damage eyes and ears. As the etiology and symptoms of both Ardhavabedhaka and Migraine are similar, Ardhavabedhaka can be correlated to Migraine. Migraine makes an individual socially handicapped. It is a common medical condition of the adult population having a significant loss in job productivity and causes significant socio-economic impact. There is a need to prevent this condition at the earliest. It is important to understand the etiological factors, triggers and course of Doshas in Ardhavabhedaka. Nidana Parivarjana (getting rid of the causative factors) is the first line of treatment in all diseases. Hence this article is an attempt to thoroughly understand the Sannikrushta Nidanas of Ardhavabhedaka with special reference to Migraine.
