Abstract

The human body's outermost layer skin, shields interior organs and tissues. Skin disorders account for 1.79% of the world's total illness burden.^[1]The majority of the time, skin disorders are the external manifestations of underlying systemic disorders. Modern dermatological treatment strives to relieve symptoms and achieve a long-lasting remission, but Ayurveda seeks to cure patients completely by identifying and treating the underlying causes of their skin disorders. In Ayurveda, skin conditions fall mostly under the category of Kushta. The seven important components that Ayurveda believes are involved in the pathophysiology of Kushta are referred to as Saptako Dravyasangraha. It consists of Tridosha, Tvak, Mamsa, Rakta and Ambu/Lasika (body fluids).^[2] The Ambu described here is likewise a Kleda, signifying Ap Mahabhuta in the body.^[3] The goal of the current work is to emphasize Kleda's function in Kushta and how treating Kleda can aid in the treatment of skin conditions.
