Abstract :
Anorectal abscesses and fistula are among the
most common diseases encountered in adults. Abscess and
fistula should be considered the acute and chronic phases
of the same anorectal infection. An anorectal abscess
occurs when a cavity in the anus becomes filled with pus.
It causes extreme pain, fatigue, rectal discharge, and
fever. The abscess can vary on the spectrum of complexity
based on the location and involvement of surrounding
tissue. Abscesses are thought to begin as an infection in
the anal glands spreading into adjacent spaces and
resulting in fistulas. The prevalence rate of anal fistula is
8.6 cases per 100,000 population. 40% of fistula results
from an anorectal abscess that occurs due to infection of
the glandular epithelium of the anal canal. The treatment
of an anorectal abscess is early, adequate, and dependent
on drainage. Its management is fairly straightforward,
with incision and drainage. Crohn’s disease, diabetes, and
obesity increase the risk for perianal abscess. This
condition can be co-related to vidradhi in Ayurveda. The
disease Vidradhi is a common ailment irritating
humankind and incapacitating the sufferer in his routine
work. The healing of the wound formed after I & D
remains a major problem to the surgeon as well as to the
patient. An attempt was made at the proper
understanding of the historical aspect of Vidradhi
Chikitsa, its etiopathogenesis, and the methodology of
wound healing after I & D both in the light of Ayurvedic
and modern knowledge. So present case study of Vidradhi
was carried out at the outpatient department of Shalya
Tantra at Mahatma Gandhi Ayurved College, Hospital
and Research Centre, Salod (Hirapur) under Datta
Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, which was
successfully treated.
