Charmakeela is one among the Kshudra rogas. Excited Vyanavayu unites with the aggravated Kapha, producing a kind of hard black coloured growth on the skin which is called Charmakeela (Twagarsha). According to Acharya Vagbhata, painless, sprouts on the skin with finger like projections either white or black in colour are called as Charmakeela. This can be correlated to Warts.Warts are multiple hyperkeratotic skin lesions characterized by rough surface surrounded by horny collar appearance caused by the Papilloma virus. Acharya Sushrutha and Acharya Vagbhata explained Agnikarma and Kshara karma,for the management of Charmakeela .Agnikarma prevents recurrence. Louha shalaka is mentioned for Twakgatha Rogas.Louha which is easily available metal and it gets heated easily on exposure to fire So it’s used more commonly in Agnikarma when compared with other shalakas. Kshara is very important among Anushastras, and it does Chedana, Bhedhana, Lekhana Karmas and Tridosha hara. Palasa kshara can also be advocated in arsas. Palasa kshara is abundantly available and it is having more teekshna property. This study is mainly meant to evaluate the efficacy of Kshara karma with Palasa kshara and Agnikarma with Louha shalaka in the management of Charmakeela.
