Chronic neuropathic wounds, particularly in leprotic conditions, pose challenges to both classical and contemporary treatment approaches. KampillakaTaila, derived from Mallotusphilippensis, is a time-tested Ayurvedic formulation recognized for its Ropana (regenerative) and Krimighna (antimicrobial) properties. This case study exemplifies a truly integrative, innovative, and holistic wound care model.
