Poonia Jaipal*, Deepshikha and Garg G. P.

ABSTRACT

The most prevalent symptom of airway and lung diseases is Kasa (cough). In most clinical situations, it might be a presenting symptom. Kasa is a debilitating Pranavaha srotas disease. Furthermore, the pathophysiology of Kasa is almost identical to the mechanism of the cough reflex. Cough is a symptom in contemporary science, however, in Ayurveda, Kasa (cough) is an alternate Vyadhi usually encountered in children. It is the 5th common symptom and most irritating in children. Approximately 25-30% of the world's children suffer from Kasa. There are five types of Kasa. Kaphaja Kasa is one of them which is undertaken for study because kapha is predominant in Balyavastha and most of the Kaphaja Vyadhis are seen in Balyavastha.

Keywords: Kaphaja Kasa, Pranavaha srotas, Ayurveda, cough, Balyavastha.
