Contribution of Sushruta Samhita in the field of Kaumarbhritya - An Insight View
Abstract
Sushruta Samhita is one of the three primary Brihata Trayi. Ayurvedic compositions are a form of traditional Indian medicine. It's a well-known among surgeons and regarded as a turning point in the science of surgery but Acharya Sushruta's contributions is not many people are familiar with as other areas of medicine. He used to say that one cannot become effective in their own field unless they have sufficient understanding of related fields. One branch of Ashtanga Ayurveda that focuses on treating infants and children as well as managing their illnesses is called Kaumarbhritya. Even though Kashyapa Samhita is regarded as Kaumarbhritya's primary literature, it is not entirely accessible. Thus, the doctors and students must leave through different literature to learn the information and find the answers to their questions. The list of Acharya Sushruta's accomplishments is endless and in this we've tried to emphasise his contributions and the information that Kaumarbhritya left behind in Sushruta Samhita.
