Ulcer is a break in skin and necrosis of epithelial tissue with often pus. Bedsores are injuries to skin and underlying tissue resulting from prolonged pressure on the skin. Bedsores most often develop on skin that covers bony areas of the body, such as the heels, ankles, hips and tailbone. In classics Sushruta has explained details of Vrana and its management by many different formulations like Jatyadi Taila, Panchvalkal Kwatha, Yastimadhu, Madhukadi Yoga and other Ropak Ghrita. This formulations have potential wound healing properties. In this study we have reported paralyzed patient from Panchkarma department of Gulabkunverba Ayurved Collage.
