Implementing traditional ayurveda treatment as a primary care management in a survivor of gas geyser syndrome - A case report.

Domestically, gas geysers are used in developing countries like India to supply hot water in bathrooms. These are of low economic value, with no requirement of electricity and easy installation, hence they are high in demand. A female patient of 14 year visited to a private Ayurved clinic on 27/12/2021 with complaints of difficulty in dysgraphia, dyslexia, dysphonia and fall (sometimes) while walking on uneven and unknown pathway. Four years ago, the patient landed into a vegetative state and was bed ridden, her condition was further diagnosed as Gas Geyser Syndrome. Here an effort has been put forth to reveal the concept of ayurvedic management adopted in a survivor of Gas Geyser Syndrome which is found to be effective. In Ayurveda the symptoms of Acute Gas Geyser syndrome can be correlated with Visha (Toxins) and its vishalakshana (Toxicity symptoms) wherein Murcha (Unconsciousness) and Sanyasa (Stage of Coma) are seen. The long term side effects of Gas Geyser Syndrome can be correlated with Vatavyadhi (Neurological disorders) as the stages of the disease manifestation presents with more neurological deficits. Ayurvedic intervention with internal medications along with the panchakarma procedures in the treatment of Gas geyser syndrome exhibits encouraging results which were seen in improving her cognition, memory and essential skills like writing, verbal communication, thinking skills, use of technology in socializing with the community.
