In Ayurveda, a carbuncle is referred to as “Vidradhi” or “Puyahva”. It is a skin condition characterized by a cluster of boils that are interconnected beneath the skin, resulting in a painful lump.
A furuncle is called “Svidaka” in Ayurveda, which is a single boil or abscess that occurs in a hair follicle or sebaceous gland. It is a localized infection of the skin that causes redness, swelling, and pain.
Boils are known as “Pama” or “Sopha” in Ayurveda. They are painful, pus-filled bumps that form under the skin as a result of a bacterial infection.
Ayurvedic management of these conditions involves a combination of internal and external treatments. Some of the commonly used herbs include neem, turmeric, manjistha, and guggulu. External treatments may involve poultices or herbal pastes applied directly to the affected area. Additionally, Ayurvedic practitioners may recommend dietary changes and lifestyle modifications to improve overall health and immunity. It is important to note that before starting any Ayurvedic treatment, it is essential to consult a qualified practitioner for an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plan
