<p style="text-align:justify;">The chapter refers to vatashonita (or vatarakta), a condition caused by vitiated [[vata]] [[dosha]] and [[rakta dhatu]]. As the disease is caused by predominantly vitiated [[vata]] and [[rakta]], it follows [[Vatavyadhi Chikitsa]] (vatika disorder). The manifestations of ''vatashonita'' resemble various metabolic and connective tissue diseases like gout, inflammatory polyarthritis and vasculitis. This variation in manifestation depends upon degree of vitiation of [[dosha]] and [[dhatu]] in each individual of unique [[Prakriti]]. This reflects each patient’s unique disease requiring specific personalized treatment which is unique to Ayurvedic system of management. The chapter has description of etiological factors along with types of ''vatashonita, purvarupa'' (prodromal symptoms), ''rupa'' (clinical features) of different types, ''rupa'' of [[dosha]] predominance, ''upadrava'' (complication) ,''sadhya-asadhyatva'' (prognosis), treatment of different types of ''vatashonita'', precautions during treatment as well as symptomatic treatment for relief in non-curable state of disease.

After describing the chapter on various presentations of vata dominant disorders, the chapter on [[vata]] being afflicted by vitiated [[rakta]] is narrated. ''Vatashonita'' is caused by vitiated [[vata dosha]]and [[rakta]] which impede the ''gati'' (movement) of each other. It is also called as ''adhyaroga'' because it affects mainly affluent people who are not habitual to physical activity and indulged in factors responsible for vitiation of [[rakta]]. People of [[pitta]] [[Prakriti]] ([[pitta]] constitution) are prone to develop ''vatashonita'', because ''sukumaratva'' (youthful personality) is the characteristic feature of [[pitta]] [[Prakriti]].

In ''vatashonita'', there is abnormality in movements of [[vata dosha]] due to abnormality of [[rakta]]. It is a group of inflammatory rheumatic disorders covering gouty arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, connective tissue disorders, inflammatory polyarthritis, vasculitis depending upon the site of vitiation.
  
=== Abstract ===

The vitiated factors impair [[agni]] (digestion and metabolism) at ''jatharagni'' and ''dhatvagni'' level. In ''vatarakta'', the vitiated [[vata dosha]] affects ''jatharagni'' to cause ''vishamagni'' and [[rakta]] dhatvagni. This impairment leads to increase in blood and serological parameters like uric acid, C-reactive protein etc. These can be used as biomarkers for assessment of efficacy of therapy.
  
The chapter refers to ''vatashonita'' (or ''vatarakta''), a condition caused by vitiated ''vata dosha'' and ''rakta''. As the disease is caused by predominantly vitiated ''vata'' and ''rakta'', it follows [[Vatavyadhi Chikitsa]] (''vatika'' disorder). The manifestations of ''vatashonita'' resemble various metabolic and connective tissue diseases like gout, inflammatory polyarthritis and vasculitis. This variation in manifestation depends upon degree of vitiation of ''doshas'' and ''dhatu'' in each individual of unique ''prakriti''. This reflects each patient’s unique disease requiring specific personalized treatment which is unique to Ayurvedic system of management.

In process of [[rakta]]-dhatvagni, sira (vessels) and kandara (tendons) are byproducts. Therefore, impairment of [[rakta]]-dhatvagni leads to involvement of deep vessels and connective tissues.

Due to subtleness and pervasiveness of [[vata]], and liquidity and flowing property of [[rakta]], they travel all over the body through blood vessels.  
  
Near the ''parva sandhis'' (small joints of fingers), as blood vessels are in slanting pattern, the vitiated blood is stagnated there and thereafter the vitiated ''vata'' and ''rakta'' along with ''pitta'' etc. produce different types of ''vedana'' (unpleasant sensation like pain etc.) so that there are ''dukha'' (pain and other abnormal sensation) in the joints. The ''vedana'' (pain) is so severe, which is difficult to tolerate. [13–15]

Symptoms of ''gambhira vatashonita'' are – edema in the involved parts of the body, stiffness of joints, hardness of the part, severe pain inside, the color of the part involved becomes either blackish or coppery. There is burning sensation, pricking pain, fasciculation and finally the part become inflamed and ulcerated. When ''vayu'' reaches ''sandhi, asthi'' and ''majja'' (joints, bones and bone marrow) it causes severe pain and burning sensation. The forcefully moving ''vayu'' having reached the joints causes cutting nature of pain whereby making them crooked, produces limping or lameness while moving all over the body. When the symptoms of both types – ''uttana'' and ''gambhira'' are present in a patient, it should be considered as ''ubhayashrita'' (superficial and deep both). [21–23]

Decoction of ''trayamana, tamalaki'' (Phyllinthus niruri), ''kakoli, kshirkakoli, shatavari'' and ''kasheru'' (Scirpus kysoor) is to be prepared by using paste of same drugs and decoction of all to be taken with juice of ''parushaka'' (Grewia asciatica), ''draksha'' (Vitis vinifera), ''kashmarya'' (Gmelina arboria), ''ikshu'' (Saccharum officinarium) and ''vidarikanda'' (Pueraria tuberose) are to be taken in equal quantity. Add one part of ''kalka'', four times ghee, five times juice, and sixteen times cow’s milk and then cook it till the liquid part is dried, the ghee is separated. This ''parushaka ghrita'' alleviates vātarakta, wasting due to injury or trauma, ''visarpa'' and ''paittika jwara''. [58–60]

Cow’s milk, ''amalaki'' (Phyllanthus emblica), sugarcane and soup of goat meat each to be taken in equal quantity of decoction. Milk, decoction, ''amalaki'' juice, sugarcane juice and meat soup are mixed and then added one ''adhaka'' (2.56 kg) ghee and then cooked in mild heat. ''Meda, mahameda'', fruit of ''kashmarya, utpalam, tvakkshiri'' (Bambusa arundinacia), ''pippali'' (Piper longum), ''draksha'' (Vitis vinifera), ''padmabeeja''  (Nelumbium speciosum), ''punarnava, brihati'' (Solanum indicum), ''kantakari'',(Solanum xanthocarpum), ''vidarikanda, shringataka'' (Trapa bispinosa), ''bhavya, urumana'' (Prunna armeniaca), ''nikocha'' (roots of Alangium lamarckii thwaites), ''kharjura'' (Phoenix dactylifera), ''akshothaka'' (Juglans regia), ''vatama'' (Prunus amygdalus), ''munjata'' (Pistacia vera), and ''abhishuka'' (Pinus gerardiana) are to be taken in equal quantity and crushed to powder and about 64 gm of the powder is added with them when the ''ghritasiddhi'' is observed then ''ghrita'' should be separated, allow to cool and then 640 gm honey should be added to it. The preparation should be stored well and protected in a clean container. After observing rituals the ''jeevaniya ghrita'' in the dose of one ''tola'' (about 10 gm) be given to the patient. This ''ghrita'' alleviates ''pandu'' (anemia), ''jwara'' (fever), ''hikka'' (hiccup), ''svarabheda'' (abnormality of voice), ''bhagandara'' (fistula in ano) ''parshvashula'' (chest pain), ''kshaya'' (tuberculosis), ''kasa'' (cough), ''pleeha'' (disorders of spleen), ''vatarakta, urakshata'' (internal injury of chest), ''shosha'' (wasting), ''apasmara'' (epilepsy), ''ashmari'' (urinary calculus), ''sharkara'' (urinary gravels), generalized or localized vātik disorders and ''mutra sanga'' (retention of urine). This ''ghrita'' promotes strength, complexion and is auspicious, it also removes wrinkles and graying of hairs, is aphrodisiac and may provide progeny even to a sterile woman. [61–70]

#''Vatashonita'' occurs when aggravated ''vata'' is afflicted with vitiated ''shonita''. ''Vata'' is the constantly moving and ''shonita'' is also constantly flowing tissue, both need clear passage for uninterrupted movement. There is simultaneous aggravation of ''vata'', vitiation of ''rakta'' and damage to potency of channels (arteries and veins). When channels pass through narrow and circuitous path of small joints, vitiated ''rakta'' and aggravated ''vata'' gets seated there to start inflammation of local tissues.

Rheumatoid arthritis and gout are two most common rheumatological conditions.  
  
Those patients with involvement of small joints of extremities resemble rheumatoid arthritis, on the other hand patients with mono-articular or oligo-articular arthritis and associated elevated uric acid resemble gout. There is a difference of opinion among Ayurvedic physicians, some call ''vatarakta'' as gout and others call rheumatoid arthritis. Some Ayurvedic physicians consider ''amavata'' as rheumatoid arthritis.  However, it can be observed that the patients diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis show clinical features of vitiation of ''vata'' associated with ''kapha dosha''. Whereas, the patients diagnosed as gouty arthritis show clinical features of vitiation of ''vata'' associated with ''pitta dosha''. Therefore, the former case can be treated on the lines of ''vatarakta'' associated with ''kapha'', while the latter can be treated on principles of ''vatarakta'' associated with ''pitta''. On close observation it is noted that in ''amavata'' there is involvement of large joins of extremities and sacroiliac joints which is consistent with rheumatoid variant or ankylosing spondylitis. Ayurvedic management depends upon correction of imbalance of ''dosha, dushya'' and ''prakriti'' of the individual and can be viewed as working through epigenetic pathway. On the other hand, modern medicine system works by antagonizing the pro-inflammatory proteins or acting through “genetic pathway”. It becomes clear that both systems achieve the objective using different ways. It can be compared to digging the tunnel from both sides. However, the direction of diagnosis and treatment needs to be clearly based upon clinical assessment of ''dosha'' dominance. The serological parameters can only be utilized for assessment of therapy.

The serological parameters can only be utilized for assessment of therapy.

Abstract

The chapter refers to vatashonita (or vatarakta), a condition caused by vitiated vata dosha and rakta dhatu. As the disease is caused by predominantly vitiated vata and rakta, it follows Vatavyadhi Chikitsa (vatika disorder). The manifestations of vatashonita resemble various metabolic and connective tissue diseases like gout, inflammatory polyarthritis and vasculitis. This variation in manifestation depends upon degree of vitiation of dosha and dhatu in each individual of unique Prakriti. This reflects each patient’s unique disease requiring specific personalized treatment which is unique to Ayurvedic system of management. The chapter has description of etiological factors along with types of vatashonita, purvarupa (prodromal symptoms), rupa (clinical features) of different types, rupa of dosha predominance, upadrava (complication) ,sadhya-asadhyatva (prognosis), treatment of different types of vatashonita, precautions during treatment as well as symptomatic treatment for relief in non-curable state of disease.
Keywords: Vata, rakta, gout, connective tissue diseases, inflammatory arthritis, polyarthritis, vasculitis.

Introduction

After describing the chapter on various presentations of vata dominant disorders, the chapter on vata being afflicted by vitiated rakta is narrated. Vatashonita is caused by vitiated vata doshaand rakta which impede the gati (movement) of each other. It is also called as adhyaroga because it affects mainly affluent people who are not habitual to physical activity and indulged in factors responsible for vitiation of rakta. People of pitta Prakriti (pitta constitution) are prone to develop vatashonita, because sukumaratva (youthful personality) is the characteristic feature of pitta Prakriti.

In vatashonita, there is abnormality in movements of vata dosha due to abnormality of rakta. It is a group of inflammatory rheumatic disorders covering gouty arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, connective tissue disorders, inflammatory polyarthritis, vasculitis depending upon the site of vitiation.

The vitiated factors impair agni (digestion and metabolism) at jatharagni and dhatvagni level. In vatarakta, the vitiated vata dosha affects jatharagni to cause vishamagni and rakta dhatvagni. This impairment leads to increase in blood and serological parameters like uric acid, C-reactive protein etc. These can be used as biomarkers for assessment of efficacy of therapy.

In process of rakta-dhatvagni, sira (vessels) and kandara (tendons) are byproducts. Therefore, impairment of rakta-dhatvagni leads to involvement of deep vessels and connective tissues. This indicates vatarakta also covers diseases like vasculitis along with thrombosis and embolism, Thromboangiitis obliterans (Burger’s disease), and Raynaud’s disease.

The chapter explains various conditions of involvement of dosha, dushya and the site of vitiation. Treatment depends upon the assessment and correction of these factors causing the conditions.

After finishing his daily worship and yagna (religious sacrifice), Punarvasu was sitting admidst the sages.

Then with concentrated mind, looking like a flame of fire, Agnivesha asked him, “Sir, please explain the etiology, symptomatology and treatment of disease (vatashonita) which is a combination of vata and rakta, and is like that of fire and wind. The teacher (Punarvasu) explained. [3–4]

Excess intake of salty, sour, pungent, alkalies and fatty substances, hot food, consumption of rotten and dried flesh, fleshes of aquatic animals like fish, animals living in the area where there are dense forest and heavy rainfall, cake of oil seeds after extraction of oil (pindyaka), radish (Raphanus sativus), red gram, black gram, green vegetables, palala (grated flesh), sugarcane, curd, sour gruel, sauvira and shukta (vinegar), butter milk, sura and asava (alcohol and medicinal preparations having high concentration of alcohol), intake of food inspite of indigestion (ajirna), incompatible food (viruddhahara), eating food before proper digestion of previous one (adhyashana), anger, sleeping in daytime and vigil during the night; in general the delicate persons who are indulged in sweet and delicious food substances and are not in habit of physical activities, the vata and shonita vitiates.

Due to injuries, not purifying the body (by shodhana karma) and indulged in consuming astringent, pungent, bitter, ruksha food items (grains of low nutritional content), starvation, traveling by horses, camels and carts, sporting in water, jumping, leaping, excessive walking in hot season, excessive sexual intercourse and suppression of natural urges are responsible for vitiation of vata.

Due to etiological factors described earlier and obstruction in passage by vitiated rakta the vata aggravates, which again vitiates the rakta and known as vatashonita, having synonyms as khuda, vatabalasa and adhyavata. [5-11]

Sites of affliction

Its sites are hands, feet, fingers and all other joints. At first it settles its root (initial involvement) in hands and feet and then spread all over the body. [12]

Due to subtleness and pervasiveness of vata, and liquidity and flowing property of rakta, they travel all over the body through blood vessels.

Near the parva sandhis (small joints of fingers), as blood vessels are in slanting pattern, the vitiated blood is stagnated there and thereafter the vitiated vata and rakta along with pitta etc. produce different types of vedana (unpleasant sensation like pain etc.) so that there are dukha (pain and other abnormal sensation) in the joints. The vedana (pain) is so severe, which is difficult to tolerate. [13–15]

There is excessive or absence of perspiration, blackishness of the body, poor or lack of tactile sensation, high intensity of pain on trauma, laxity of joints, lassitude, malaise, appearance of boils, feeling of heaviness, numbness and itching in knee, thigh, waist, shoulder, hands, legs and other joints of the body, appearance of pain in the joints and abatement (without treatment), discoloration of body, appearance of mandala (circular skin lesions) are the premonitory symptoms of vatashonita. [16–18]

Types of vatarakta

As this is said there are two types of vatashonita - uttana (superficial) and gambhira (deep). The uttana is located in twaka(skin) and mamsa dhatu (muscles) while the gambhira is located in the deep tissues. [19]

Clinical features of uttana vatarakta (superficial type)

Symptoms of uttana vatashonita are itching, burning sensation, pain, stretching sensation, piercing pain, fasciculation, feeling of constricting and the color of skin becomes blackish, red or coppery. [20]

Clinical features of gambhira vatarakta (deep type)

Symptoms of gambhira vatashonita are – edema in the involved parts of the body, stiffness of joints, hardness of the part, severe pain inside, the color of the part involved becomes either blackish or coppery. There is burning sensation, pricking pain, fasciculation and finally the part become inflamed and ulcerated. When vata reaches sandhi, asthi dhatu and majja dhatu (joints, bones and bone marrow) it causes severe pain and burning sensation. The forcefully moving vayu having reached the joints causes cutting nature of pain whereby making them crooked, produces limping or lameness while moving all over the body. When the symptoms of both types – uttana and gambhira are present in a patient, it should be considered as ubhayashrita (superficial and deep both). [21–23]

Now listen the clinical features found in predominance of vata, rakta, pitta, kapha or in combination of two or all three dosha. If vata is predominant, there is sirayama (stretching sensation in sira or veins), pain, fasciculation, pricking pain, swollen part becomes blackish , dry , increasing and decreasing grayish hue, constrictions of dhamani (arteries, ligaments) of fingers, stiffness of body parts and intense pain, constriction, stiffness and hatred to cold by the patient. These are the symptoms of vata predominance.

If rakta is predominant, there is swelling, severe pain of pricking nature, tingling sensation, colour of part of skin becomes coppery, not diminished by application of either unctuous or dry substances associated with itching and moistening over the part. If pitta is predominant, there is burning sensation over the part, pain, fainting, perspiration, thirst, narcosis, giddiness, redness of the part affected, pain of tearing nature, inflammation and atrophy of the part.

If kapha is predominant there is feeling of wetness of the skin, heaviness, unctuousness, numbness and mild pain. When there is predominance of two dosha or all three dosha there will be combination of symptoms and etiological factors as well. [24–29]

When there is recent onset and predominance of single dosha, vatashonita is sadhya (curable). The disease arising from predominance of two dosha is yapya (palliable). The disease arising from predominance of all three dosha and has developed upadrava (complications) as well, is asadhya (incurable). [30]

Insomnia, anorexia, dyspnea, gangrene, stiffness in the head, fainting, narcosis, pain, thirst, fever, mental confusion, shivering, hiccup, lameness, eryseplas, inflammation and ulceration, pricking pain, giddiness, exhaustion, crook like deformity of fingers, appearance of blisters, burning sensation, stiffness in marma (vital part of the body), appearance of tumors, if these symptoms have appeared the disease is incurable. Even if there is mental confusion alone, then also the disease is incurable. The patient should not be treated if there is profuse discharge from the ulcer, discoloration, stiffness, the lesion has become like tumor, constriction of the part and damage to the senses.

If all the above complications are not present, then the disease is yapya (palliable). If the complications are not present, then it is curable. [31–34]

In this condition, the blood should let out with shringa (horn), jalauka (leech application), suchi (needle), alabu (hollow bitter gourd), pracchana (scratching) or siravyadha (venesection) depending on morbidity and strength of the patient. [36]

Bloodletting should be done by applying the leech if one is suffering from discomfort, burning sensation, pain and pricking sensation. If the patient is suffering from tactile dysfunction, itching and tingling, his blood should let out with either shringa (animal horn) or alabu (hollow gourd). [37]

If the symptoms and complications in vatashonita are not localised to a specific part rather are of fleeting nature, the blood should be let out with siravyadha (venesection) or by pracchana. In case if there are angaglani (anga shosha i.e.atrophy), dryness, and other symptoms of vata dominance, the bloodletting should not be done. [38]

Blood loss due to blood letting may cause aggravation of vata dosha, leading to deep swelling, stiffness, tremors, disorders of sira and snayu (blood vessels and ligaments), debility and constriction of the part. If there is excessive blood loss, the complications like limping and other vāta disorders and even death will occur. Hence one should let the blood out in proper quantity, after proper oleation. [39–40]

After proper oleation, vatarakta patient shall be treated with mild therapeutic purgation with unctuous substances or with dry substances (in case of excess oleated patient). After purgation, the patient should be given frequent basti (enema of medicated substances) including anuvasana basti (unctuous enema) and niruha basti (enema made from decoction of medicinal herbs). Besides fomentation, massage, ointments, food and sneha (unctuous substances) be given to the patient which do not cause burning sensation. Now listen; specific remedies. [41–42]

In case of uttana vatashonita affecting superficial tissues only, the patient should be treated with alepana (affected part is covered with medicinal paste), abhyanga (massage), parisheka (bathing in warm decoction or unctuous substances) and upanaha (application of poultice).

In the case of gambhira vatarakta the patient should be treated with purgation, asthapana basti (enema with decoction of medicinal plants) and snehapana(drinking medicated oil/ghee).

In the disease where the vata is predominant, one should over come the disease with medicated ghee, taila, vasa, majja (ghee, oil, fat, and bone marrow of animals) either by intake or massage or enema and the diseased part should be treated with warm upanaha (warm poultice).

Where the rakta and pitta both are predominant, patient should be treated by mild purgation, after ghrita pana (intake of medicated ghee), intake of milk, bathing in decoction made from medicinal plants and basti (enema). The rakta-pitta dominance should be treated with cold and refrigerant alepa (paste of herbs).

Where the kapha is predominant, in patient of vatarakta he should be treated with mild emesis and avoid excessive oleation, sudation and fasting. Lukewarm lepa (pastes of herbs) are useful. [43–46]

In the patients of vatarakta with vata-kapha predominance, if cold pralepa is applied then there will be complications like burning sensation, swelling of the part, pain and itching due to stasis of the dosha, like wise in the patients suffering from vatarakta with rakta and pitta predominance, if are applied with ushna dravya will cause daha (burning sensation), kleda (moistening) and tearing of the skin. Therefore, in cases of vatarakta, the physician should apply the treatment measures after well considering the bala (strength) of the dosha. [47–48]

In this chapter of vatarakta the etiological factors, location and root, reason for its prevalence of aggravation in general in joints, prodromal symptoms, clinical features, symptoms of both types (uttana and gambhira), different symptom produced by the dosha predominance and complications, prognostic description of different stages of the disease (sadhya, yapya and asadhya), management of sadhya vatarakta (curable vatarakta) and symptomatic treatment of all stages as well has been described in brief and details by the great sage Atreya for Agnivesha.

Thus ends the 29th Chapter (Vatarakta Chikitsa) in Chikitsa Sthana in treatise composed by Agnivesha, redacted by Charak and reconstructed by Dridhabala. [163–165]

Tattva Vimarsha (Fundamental Principles)

  1. Vatashonita occurs when aggravated vata is afflicted with vitiated shonita. Vata is the constantly moving and shonita is also constantly flowing tissue, both need clear passage for uninterrupted movement. There is simultaneous aggravation of vata, vitiation of rakta and damage to potency of channels (arteries and veins). When channels pass through narrow and circuitous path of small joints, vitiated rakta and aggravated vata gets seated there to start inflammation of local tissues.
  2. A combination of vata aggravating factors and pitta-rakta vitiating factors gives rise to vatarakta.
  3. Etiological factors of vata vitiation are virudha ahara (incompatible food), adhyasana (taking food before complete digestion of previous one), ratri jagrana (vigil in night), kashaya (astringent), katu (pungents), tikta (bitter), alpabhojana (inadequate quantity of food), ruksha bhojana (food substances of low nutritional values), abhojana (starvation), excess travelling in uncomfortable vehicles, sporting in water, jumping, leaping, excessive walking in hot season, excessive sexual intercourse and suppression of natural urges.
  4. Pitta, shonita and shonita vaha srotasa, vitiating factors are lavana, amla, katu, kshara, ushna bhojana, ajeerna bhojana (salty, sour, pungent, alkaline, fatty substances, very hot food, taking food during indigestion), various pulses (kulattha, masha etc), various beverages having quite good percentage of alcohol, excess walking in hot season, vigil during night are responsible for vitiation of pitta dosha as well as shonita and shonita vaha srotasa.
  5. Pitta predominant person leading a delicate life style is more susceptible for early progression of vatarakta.
  6. There are two types of vatashonita:
    1. Uttana or superficial, located in blood vessels between skin and muscles. It manifests as itching, burning, piercing pain in skin, constricting and expanding sensation of skin, black red and coppery boils of skin, and
    2. Gambhira or deep: Located in blood vessels of small joints of extremities but more in lower extremities and big toe is most affected. Manifested inflammation, hard, non- shifting and painful, pulsating inflammation with coppery black color and cause of disability.
  7. Based on dosha, vatshonita is classified into four types, three of them due to one dosha and one due to three dosha, the last one is incurable.
  8. Treatment is four-fold with six types of blood letting, therapeutic purgation, purifying enema and palliative treatment for vata.
  9. In vatarakta, rakta obstructs pathway of vata and vice-versa i.e. vata obstructing pathway of rakta. Bloodletting helps in the movement of vata.
  10. The purgation should be mild because strong purgation may cause vataprakopa.
  11. After proper oleation, vatarakta patient shall be treated with mild therapeutic purgation with unctuous substances or with dry substances (in case of excess oleated patient). After purgation, the patient should be given frequent basti (enema of medicated substances) including anuvasana basti (unctuous enema) and niruha basti (enema made from decoction of medicinal herbs). Besides fomentation, massage, ointments, food and sneha (unctuous substances) be given to the patient which do not cause burning sensation.
  12. In case of uttana vata shonita affecting superficial tissues only, the patient should be treated with alepana (affected part is covered with medicinal paste), abhyanga (massage), parisheka (bathing in warm decoction or unctuous substances) and upanaha (application of poultice).
  13. In the case of gambhira vata rakta the patient should be treated with purgation, asthapana basti(enema with decoction of medicinal plants) and snehapana (drinking medicated oil/ghee).
  14. In the disease where the vata is predominant, one should over come the disease with medicated ghee, taila, vasa, majja(ghee, oil, fat, and bone marrow of animals) either by intake or massage or enema and the diseased part should be treated with warm upanaha (warm poultice).
  15. Where the rakta and pitta both are predominant, patient should be treated by mild purgation, after ghrita pana (intake of medicated ghee), intake of milk, bathing in decoction made from medicinal plants and basti (enema). The raktapitta should be treated with cold and refrigerant alepam (paste of herbs).
  16. Where the kapha is predominant, patient of vatarakta should be treated with mild emesis and avoid excessive oleation, sudation and fasting. Luke warm lepa (pastes of herbs) are useful.
  17. External application of unctuous substances like ghee and oil processed with herbs having cold potency, sweet and bitter tastes are effective to reduce burning sensation.
  18. If vata is vitiated due to obstruction either by excessive aggravated meda dhatu or kapha, one should not apply unctuous and stouting drugs in the beginning. Instead kapha and meda dhatu subjugate with physical exercises, shodhana (purification), virechana (purgation), and intake of arishta (fermentated preparation of medicinal herbs etc.) and butter milk with abhaya.

Vidhi Vimarsha (Applied Inferences )

Vatarakta is a group of inflammatory rheumatic diseases. Pathogenesis of these ailments is related to aggravation of vata dosha due to vitiation of rakta dhatu. The primary sites of involvement are small joints of hands and feet.

Etiological factors

Diet

Excess intake of salty, sour and pungent foods with spices and deep fried in oil are observed to cause the disease. The soft drinks with alkalis, excess consumption of fatty substances, alcohol, aquatic animals, dried flesh are known to vitiate rakta. A study carried on 178 participants revealed that excess intake of amlarasa could be a risk factor for joint inflammation, dentine hypersensitivity, stomatitis, halitosis, heartburn and papules.[1] Consumption of astringent, pungent, bitter, ruksha food items (grains of low nutritional values and those with dry property) vitiate vata dosha. Consumption of tikshna[2] (sharply acting) and vidahi (which causes burning) are other factors responsible for vitiating rakta.[3]

The dietary habits like intake of food during indigestion (ajirna), incompatible food (viruddhahara), eating food before proper digestion of previous meal (adhyashana) are causes of vitiation of vata due to improper digestion and metabolism.

Psychological factors

Anger is known to vitiate pitta and secondarily rakta.

Lifestyle habits

Sleeping in daytime and vigil during the night; injuries, not purifying the body (by shodhana karma); starvation, excess traveling, sporting in water, jumping, leaping, excessive walking in hot season, excessive sexual intercourse and suppression of natural urges are responsible for vitiation of vata.

In general, the delicate persons who are indulged in sweet and rich food substances and are not in habit of physical activities, the vata and rakta are vitiated. Those who have sedentary lifestyles with least walking are most prone to vatarakta. [2],[3],[4]

The above factors can cause vitiation of blood by aggravation of its tikshna (sharply acting) property and vitiation of vata dosha by aggravation of its ruksha (dry) property. The properties like sukshma (minuteness) and sara (moving) of both vata and rakta are affected to cause the disease process. Drava (fluidity) of rakta is affected leading to obstruction in free movement of vata.

Pathogenesis

The pathogenesis involves aggravation by avarana(obstruction) of movement of vata by the vitiated rakta. Therefore, the treatment is focused upon pacification of rakta to remove obstruction and pacification of vata. The pathogenesis starts from small joints of lower extremities.[3] The onset of disease is acute and the vitiation of rakta occurs quickly. [2]

Clinical features

  1. Pain, swelling, redness, increased temperature and tenderness of small joints especially thumb or big toes. This slowly spreads to affect all joints.
  2. Itching, burning, pricking, pulsating, breaking pain in skin
  3. Greyish, copperish discolouration of skin
  4. In case of involvement of deeper tissues, swelling, hardness of affected site, discoloration, suppuration, pulsating, pricking or burning sensation can occur.

Above features are observed at sites of joints, ligaments and blood vessels as per the dosha dominance in vatarakta.

Types

Uttana vatarakta involves twacha (skin) and mamsa dhatu (muscular tissue). Gambhira vatarakta involves all other tissues. The uttana vatarakta progresses to gambhira vatarakta in due course of time.[2],[3]

Differential diagnosis

Vatarakta, amavata and sandhigata vata are three most common rheumatological clinical conditions. The clinical presentations need to be differentiated for diagnosis and designing treatment protocol.

Criteria Vatarakta Amavata Sandhigata Vata
Dosha Vata associated with pitta Vata associated with ama, mainly kapha Vata associated with vata
Dushya Rakta dhatu,Twak, Mamsa dhatu Rasa dhatu Asthi dhatu,Majja dhatu
Clinical Features Pain, Burning Sensation, Swelling, Tenderness Pain, Swelling, Tenderness Painful movements
Nature of pain/spread of disease pathogens Spreads like rat poison (moderate), pulsating Like scorpion bite (severe), fleeting Pain on movement, stable
Joints involved Small joints like metacarpal and metatarsal joints Big joints like knee, elbow, shoulder and sacroiliac joint. Wear and tear of excessively used joints
Reaction to sneha (oleation) Mild sneha is indicated Strictly contraindicated, as pain increases after massage and oleation Indicated, pain reduces after massage and oleation
Aggravating factors in diet Hot, sour, salty, pungent Salt, sweet, heavy to digest food Bitter, pungent, light to digest food
General aggravating factors Exposure to heat, traveling Sedentary lifestyle, exertion immediately after taking food Overuse of joints
Treatment Sneha, virechana, basti with drugs of mild property, raktamokshana Langhana, basti with drugs of sharp acting property Snehana, basti, brimhana

Constituent conditions of vatarakta

Rheumatoid arthritis and gout are two most common rheumatological conditions.

Those patients with involvement of small joints of extremities resemble rheumatoid arthritis, on the other hand patients with mono-articular or oligo-articular arthritis and associated elevated uric acid resemble gout. There is a difference of opinion among Ayurvedic physicians, some call vatarakta as gout and others call rheumatoid arthritis. Some Ayurvedic physicians consider amavata as rheumatoid arthritis. However, it can be observed that the patients diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis show clinical features of vitiation of vata associated with kapha dosha. Whereas, the patients diagnosed as gouty arthritis show clinical features of vitiation of vata associated with pitta dosha. Therefore, the former case can be treated on the lines of vatarakta associated with kapha, while the latter can be treated on principles of vatarakta associated with pitta. On close observation it is noted that in amavata there is involvement of large joins of extremities and sacroiliac joints which is consistent with rheumatoid variant or ankylosing spondylitis. Ayurvedic management depends upon correction of imbalance of dosha, dushya and Prakriti of the individual and can be viewed as working through epigenetic pathway. On the other hand, modern medicine system works by antagonizing the pro-inflammatory proteins or acting through “genetic pathway”. It becomes clear that both systems achieve the objective using different ways. It can be compared to digging the tunnel from both sides. However, the direction of diagnosis and treatment needs to be clearly based upon clinical assessment of dosha dominance. The serological parameters can only be utilized for assessment of therapy.

The condition in which blood vessels, connective tissues and tendons are involved such as vasculitis along with thrombosis and embolism, thrombo-angiitis obliterans (Burger’s disease), Raynaud’s disease are also considered under the disease vatarakta.

The treatment focus on correction of rakta-dhatvagni, through which mechanisms in sira(vessels) and kandara(tendons) are corrected.

Investigations

  1. Serological investigations like Erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, uric acid, quantitative and qualitative assessment of rheumatoid factor may be investigated as biomarkers.
  2. Radiological investigations including X-rays of affected part
  3. Ultrasound, histopathological study and angiography.

Complications

Insomnia, permanent joint deformity, gangrene, necrosis, tumor can occur as complication of vatarakta.

Prognosis considering present developments in medicine

The disease with involvement of single dosha and new (diagnosed within one year) is curable. The disease with involvement of more than one dosha and chronic (more than one year) is palliable with medicines and appropriate therapies.

Management of diseases (Treatment protocols)

Principles of management

  1. Basti (therapeutic enema): Basti with herbs of ruksha (dry) property or mridu (mild) property are used to treat both uttana (superficial) and gambhira (deep) types of vatarakta.
  2. Raktamokshana (bloodletting): Bloodletting is prescribed as per dosha dominance in vatarakta patients. This gives better results to remove obstruction and reduce vitiation of blood.

Main drugs:

  1. Guduchi
  2. Kokilaksha
  3. Suranjana
Type Name Dosage Time Anupana
Vataja Kaishora guggulu 500-1000 mg Between two meals Kokilaksha kwatha + ghee + honey
Pittaja and Raktaja Mauktika kamduha 60-250 mg Between two meals Milk and guduchi kwatha
Kaphaja Gud-Bhallataka-haritaki vati 1-3 grams Before meals, two times Milk or lukewarm water

Evidence based clinical practices

A study reviewing anti-rheumatic formulations showed that 247 formulations are enlisted in Ayurveda texts. rasnasaptaka kwath, ajmodadi choorna, vatavidhvanasana rasa, vatari rasa, sinhanad guggulu, yogaraj guggulu, khandashunthyavaleha, amrit bhallatak, guggulu panchatikta ghrita, vishagarbha taila are common formulations used to treat rheumatic conditions. Yogaraja guggulu is used in 50% prescriptions [5] for rheumatic cases.

A research on vatarakta concluded that the notion of margavarana (obstruction in pathway) can be correlated to the pathology of atherosclerosis, and the state of uttana vatarakta to that of peripheral arterial disease. Identical therapeutic efficacy of kaishora guggulu and amrita guggulu was observed in thirty patients of uttana vatarakta. [6]

Another study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant effect of five kashayams (kwaths - decoctions) manjishtadi kashayam (MK), rasna erandadi kashayam (REK), sahacharadhi kashayam (SK), maharasnadi (or rasna dwiguna bhagam) kashayam (MRK) and dhanwantharam kashayam (DK) used in the management of diseases manifested due to vitiation of vata and vatarakta (mostly diseases of connective tissues, bones, joints and nervous system). It concluded that the total phenolic content and the antioxidant property of the products justify the protective and corrective effects produced by the products in vata and vatarakta disorders. The phenolic content is highest in MK, followed by DK. The phenolic content of MRK, SK and REK are comparable [7]. This shows the formulations act by scavenging the free radicals in rheumatic diseases.

Potential areas /scope for further research

Study to evaluate the efficacy of basti and bloodletting therapies in the management of vatarakta is needed. Further studies to evaluate the effect of Ayurvedic formulations in management of vatarakta are needed.
