Abstract
nDiabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a distressing complication of diabetes mellitus. It is encountered in about 15% of patients living with DM. It is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The patients with DFU are at the risk of prolonged hospitalization, infection, gangrene, amputation, and even death if effective wound care faculties are not provided. It is anticipated that approximately 50%-70% of all lower limb amputations are due to DFU. According to estimation, in every 30second one leg is amputated due to DFU. The management of DFU has always been a challenging task as the ulcer shows no tendency toward healing. It is very difficult to treat such ulcer with conventional methods of antiseptic dressing and it requires prolonged hospitalization. In view of higher incident of DFU and non-availability of the affordable treatment, the present study was designed to access the effect of the Unani formulation containing Sibr Zard, Amba Haldi, Mur Makki, and Gulnar in the treatment of the Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). After proper cleaning of the wound with Neem (Azadirachta Indica) leave water, a fine powder of the test drugs: Sibr Zard, Amba Haldi, Mur Makki, and Gulnar was sprinkled over the wound and dressing done with sterilized gauze piece and bandage were applied. Dressing was done regularly under full aseptic precaution. At the end of 150 days of study 97.7 percent of healing of the ulcer achieved.
