Stana Keelaka treatment
Treatment of Stanakilaka applicable in the treatment of breast abscess
Ghee should be given orally to cause oleation. With this, the channels are softened; the foreign body slips out or is expelled.
Careful and methodical milking, massaging and moistening should be done. Cold irrigations and anointments will help.
Purgation and congenial diet should be given.
After due consideration of the strength of doshas and the patient, drainage should be done before suppuration and incision should be done after suppuration.
