ABSTRACT

Rooted in the rich heritage of Ayurveda, Vrana bandhana stands as a cornerstone in the realm of Shalakya Tantra, offering profound insights into the art and science of wound bandaging. This abstract delves into the foundational principles of Vrana bandhana, drawing from ancient Samhitas. Exploring the Ayurvedic perspective, it elucidates the classification of wounds based on doshas, tissues, and stages of healing, alongside a meticulous study of bandaging materials, emphasizing their roles in fostering optimal wound recovery. Furthermore, it elucidates the intricate techniques prescribed in the Samhitas for bandaging diverse wounds, taking into account specific doshic imbalances and individual constitutions. Bridging the ancient with the contemporary, this abstract examines the relevance of Ayurvedic wound bandaging in the present medical landscape, advocating for its integration as a complementary approach to conventional wound care. Emphasizing the preservation of this traditional wisdom, it highlights challenges, prospects, and the imperative role of Ayurveda in providing holistic and personalized solutions for effective wound management.
