Amavata is a crippling disease caused due to ama. In this disease, doshas get mingled with ama and take seat of kapha specially joints causing swelling, pain and stiffness there. In modern system of medicine its very clinical correlate is rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune inflammatory disease.

These drugs have various multi system side effect on prolong use. On the contrary, Ayurvedic medicines have minimal or no side effects on long term use and there is improvement in quality of life as well.
