Dr Shahid M, Dr Suneeshmon M S

Abstract :

ABSTRACT Gridhrasi is one among the most common disorder causing morbidity in productive period of life affecting the lower limb leading to walking difficulty. It is characterized by pain, pricking sensation, stiffness and repeated twitching observed sequentially in buttocks, low back, thighs, back of knee, calf region and foot with restricted lifting of the affected leg. Due to similar clinical presentations Gridhrasi may be correlated to sciatica of the contemporary system of medicine characterized by pain, weakness, numbness, and other discomforts along the course of sciatic nerve. This has become a very common condition with an annual estimate of 10 million cases reported from India with more prevalence in males, mostly of 40–60 years of age group.
