Abstract
Osteoarthritic disorders (OAD) namely osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, lumbar and cervical spondylosis, etc., are major health concern worldwide. Th ere are many causative factors such as age, obesity, injury aff ecting muscles and bones, etc. Th e objective is to develop the tools for pain diagnosis for OAD and treatment thereon by topical phytotherapeutic protocol with specialised technique. Th e study was conducted on 108 patients ( male: 27 and female: 81) aged ≥50 years old for diagnosis of pain and complete recovery of OAD with the help of topical application of phytoconstituents (aqueous extracts) from Indian medicinal plants such as Cissus quadrangularis, Heliotropium indicum, Rosmarinus offi cinalis and Calotropis gigantea preserving with sesame oil and beeswax. Th e development of diagnostic tools for abnormalities of OAD were studied through anatomical measurements (bilateral knee gaps between the short head of bicep femories and level of the bed, bilateral knee fl exions and extensions in supine, prone and standing positions), biochemical parameters (muscle creatinine phosphokinase, C-reactive protein and aldolase A) and radiological images (AP and lateral views) at the baseline. In order to justify the complete recovery, the same parameters were studied at the end of 42 sittings and compared with the data at the baseline (0 sitting). Th e present results reveal a novel study for new pain diagnostic protocol and complete recovery of abnormalities due to OAD and prevention thereon as evidenced by anatomical measurements, biochemical parameters and radiological images by specialised phytotherapeutic treatment programme 0 sitting and aft er 42 sittings of treatment.
