Abstract

Mutrakriccha, a condition resembling chronic cystitis, was successfully applied in a 64-year-old male presenting with recurrent fever, dysuria, and leg edema. Mutrakriccha, characterized by urinary symptoms akin to urinary tract infections in Ayurvedic medicine, manifested with increased frequency, urgency, and painful urination. Diagnostic tests revealed elevated pus cells, creatinine, and blood urea levels, indicative of renal dysfunction. Treatment over two months included Musta Churna, Sudarshana Churna, and Chandra-Prabha Vati, complemented by Gokshuradi Guggulu, Punarnava, and Varunadi Kwatha to alleviate symptoms and promote urinary health. Dietary modifications and lifestyle adjustments were integral components of the therapeutic regimen. Follow-up showed significant improvement in fever, dysuria resolution, and reduced edema and backache severity. This case highlights the efficacy of Ayurvedic interventions in managing Mutrakriccha-induced UTI symptoms, suggesting their potential as alternative treatment options. Further research is needed to validate these findings and explore broader applications in clinical practice.
