A Review on Urooq Mafsuda (Bloodletting Vessels) of Upper Limb in Unani System of Medicine

Abstract

AbstractThe Unani system of Medicine is a comprehensive medical system, meticulously dealing with the various states of health and disease. The therapeutics in Unani system of Medicine is described under the major headings of Regimenal therapy (Ilaj bi’l-Tadbeer), Dietotherapy (Ilaj bi’l-Ghidha), Pharmacotherapy (Ilaj bi’l-Dawa) and Surgery (Ilaj bi’l-Yad). In regimenal therapies there are various modes of treatment. Fasd (Venesection) is one of the oldest medical procedures that have been practiced since ancient times. It removes excess and abnormal humours through veins. Unani physicians described around 43 veins in the body for Fasd. Among them 12 veins were found in both upper limbs, 6 in each. These 6 veins of the upper limb were described with their specific anatomical position. The highlight of this review paper is to explore the modern anatomy of upper limb veins used for Fasd (venesection).KeywordsUpper limb Veins, Urooq Mafsuda, Fasd (Venesection), Regimenal therapy, Ilaj bi’l-Tadbeer, Unani System of Medicine.
