Abstract

Muscular dystrophy is a group of genetic disorders that are characterized by progressive loss of muscle integrity, wasting, and weakness, Characterized by degeneration and regeneration of muscle fibers. The muscle fails to regenerate resulting in progressive weakness and confining to a wheelchair, eventually leads to death. As per Ayurveda we can consider it as Mamsa Kshaya. It’s a kind of Aadhibhala Pravrutta Vyadhi, caused due to Beeja Bhaga Avayava Dusti. Since dystrophies are inexorably progressive disease, we can postopone the Progression of disease and improve the quality of life by adopting Santarpana line of treatment .
