Dr. Rajesh Kumar Soni*, Prof. Mahesh Dixit, Dr. Hari Shankar, Dr. Chhagan Lal

Sciatica, characterized by radiating pain along the sciatic nerve, correlates with Gridhrasi in Ayurveda, a disorder predominantly caused by Vata and sometimes associated with Kapha.

This article presents a comparative clinical evaluation based on case studies and classical principles, assessing their efficacy in relieving pain, stiffness, and improving functional mobility.
