    [abstract] =>  In Āyurvedā text, Mukhadūṣikā is classified as a Kṣudraroga (minor disease), characterised by eruptions resembling the thorns of the Śālmalī tree.[1] This condition is considered analogous to Acne Vulgaris in modern science, a chronic inflammatory skin disorder affecting the pilosebaceous unit. Acne Vulgaris is known for causing various non –inflammatory and inflammatory lesions, which can lead to significant scarring.
Traditional Āyurvedā therapies, particularly topical applications known as Lepa have been highly valued in the management of mukhadūṣikā [2]. Numerous formulations of these medicinal pastes are described in ancient texts, specifically within the Kṣudraroga Cikitsā adhyāya of classical Saṁhitā. This review systematically compiles and analyses the therapeutic combinations used in these traditional Āyurvedā topical applications for the treatment of Mukhadūṣikā. By doing so, it seeks to explore the potential of these historical formulations for modern dermatological research.
