Eight fold examination (\u0b8e\u0ba3\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0b95\u0bc8 \u0ba4\u0bc7\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0bb5\u0bc1) in Siddha system of medicine.<\/span><\/h2>\n

The history of diagnosis goes back to ancient cultures of the world like Egyptians, Greek and Mesopotamia. Most of the sources like books, research papers and internet speak only about science and methodologies that existed among these civilizations. Many historians and medical researchers forgot the civilization of Asia, the medical science of Harappa, Mohan-ja-daro and Lemuria. The Indian and Chinese medical system is the medical system of Asia. The Indian medical system Ayurveda and Siddha system of medicine share lot of similarities with Chinese medical system for e.g. Varma points in Siddha system is similar to Acupuncture points in Chinese system. With advent of time, medical system of our world has undergone so many changes and has ignored many age old techniques, practices and principles for its inaccuracy. Though many diagnostic methodologies have vanished there are few specialized forms of diagnosis that still remains to match modern day diagnosis. One such diagnostic methodology of Siddha system of medicine is eight fold examinations.<\/span>
\n Eight-fold examinations for diagnosing the diseases in Siddha system is time tested and fool proof system, when learnt and applied correctly. It is these physical examination methodologies which help a Siddha physician to analyze and understand the situation, symptoms of diseases.<\/span>
