Abstract

In fast paced modern world people have switched to inappropriate life styles and unhealthy food habits and this resulted in wide array of disease. Hence a search for universal systems and practices for human health and cure from every available source irrespective of its labels is in progress. This fascinated the author so much that he was very much attracted towards the disease Raththa Moolam from the various materials mentioned in siddha literature, the author correlated the disease with First degree Internal Haemorrhoids. The diagnosis was made by means of siddha parameters and the study was done on 20 Out patients and 20 In patients with the administration of trial drug Moola Rogangal Gunamaga Ennei – 2.5ml (Ref: Theraiyar Aruliya Vaithya Saaram). Preclinical screenings viz, bio chemical analysis, pharmacological analysis were done using the trial drug. At the end of study most cases showed very good result. SUMMARY: The clinical study on Raththa Moolam with reference to its aetiology, symptomatology treatment and prognosis were carried out in Post Graduate Department of Maruthuvam, Government Siddha Medical College, Palayamkottai. 40 cases who fulfilled the criteria were selected. Out of which 20 patients were admitted in Inpatient ward and were treated and remaining 20 cases were treated as Out patients. Clinical and pathological assessment was carried out on the basis of both Siddha and Modern Aspect. All the patients were treated with Moola Rogangal Gunamaga Ennei 2.5ml twice daily. The responses were assessed two days once for Out Patients and daily for In-patients. No untoward effects were observed clinically in any of the cases during the course of treatment. Patients were advised to follow pathiyam confined to trial drug and disease. The results were found to be very good in almost every case. Bleeding was arrested in almost all the cases. Other symptoms like constipation, burning sensation, pruritus ani were also relieved. After the relief of symptoms, patients were advised to follow yogasana, pranayamam and pathiyam including life style modification to prevent relapse of disease. Qualitative analysis of medicine showed the presence of calcium, chloride, ferrous iron, tannic acid, unsaturated compound, reducing sugar, amino acid which are active ingredients responsible for the action of trial medicine. Pharmacological analysis showed significant laxative and styptic action of trial drug.
