This vitiated <em>Vata</em> and <em>Rakta</em> is called <em>Vatarakta</em>. On the basis of etiopathology, <em>Vatarakta</em> may also be linked to Gout. A 52 years old female patient approached the OPD with the chief complaints of:<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Acute pain in all major and minor joint and Deformity on upper limb fingers in the last one year. The patient was given completely Ayurvedic medicines and <em>Panchakarma</em> therapies for 10 days, and Only <em>Ayurvedic</em> medicines on discharge were later moved and the findings were noticeably seen. Hence this study was taken to prove that Ayurvedic management with <em>Mustadi Yapana</em> <em>Basti</em> has remarkable results on <em>Vatarakta</em> (Gout). Observations and outcomes were drawn on the basis of measurement criteria. During analysis, discussion was carried out on the basis of whole findings. On the basis of the outcome, conclusions were taken.</p>}, number={3}, journal={International Journal of Ayurvedic Medicine}, author={Sanghani, Devyani and Toshikhane, Sangeeta H and Sahu, Lal Ravi and Thakur, Kritika}, year={2021}, month={Sep.}, pages={748–751} }
