Kasisadi Taila - Arshoroga (Piles / Hemorrhoids)

Kasisadi Taila is a potent classical Ayurvedic medicated oil traditionally used in the management of Arshoroga, especially Bahya Arsha (external hemorrhoids) and selected cases of Shushka / Kathina Arsha. The formulation is known for its Lekhana, Bhedana, Shothahara, Krimighna, and Vedanasthapana actions when used judiciously under Ayurvedic supervision.

Prepared using Kasis (Ferrous Sulphate), Kshara-Tikshna herbs, mineral drugs, Gomutra, and Taila base, Kasisadi Taila acts locally to help reduce mass, pain, discharge, itching, and inflammation associated with piles.
