It is evident that surgical practices in Tamil history during Bakthi ages\nbetween Seventh and Twelfth century A.D was very popular. There was a\ngreat development during this period in Siddha system because most of\nthe Siddhars are said to have lived, in which Surgery was a well\ndeveloped science. It can be understood from the following literary\nevidences that

“\u0b89\u0b9f\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0bc8\u0b9f \u0bc7\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb1\u0bbf \u0b92\u0bc8\u0bb1 \u0b85\u0ba4\u0ba4 \u0b89\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0 \u0b8a\u0bb1\u0bbf \u0b95\u0b9f\u0bb1 \u0bc7\u0bb5\u0bc7\u0bb1\u0bbe \u0bae\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bbe \u0baf\u0bb0\u0ba4\u0bb5” (\u201cIncising the haematoma, blood letting was done\nfollowed by cauterization and healing it by external applications\u201d)
\n\u2018Kamba ramayanam\u201d

\n“””\u0b85\u0baf\u0bc7\u0bb5\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\n\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.\u0ba8\u0b95\u0bb2 \u0b87\u0bc6\u0baa\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0b95\u0bb1\n\u0b95\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0bae\u0bbe \u0bae\u0ba3\u0baf \u0bb5\u0bbe\u0b95”\n
(\u201cThe piece of the spear left in the body was removed completely using\nmagnet\u201d) \u2018Kamba ramayanam\u201d

\nIn \u201cNalyira Divya Prabandam\u201d written by Vaishnava Saint \u201cThirumangai\nalwar\u201d\n“\u0bb5\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbe\u0bb2 \u0bae\u0bb5\u0baa\u0bbe\n\u0bae\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbe\u0ba4 \u0b95\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0083 \u0bc7\u0ba8\u0bbe\u0baf\u0bbe\u0bb3} \u0bc7\u0baa\u0bbe\u0083\u201d

\n(\u201c I love thee O\u2019 lord like a patient who loves his surgeon despite the\nprocedures of surgery and cautery\u201d)

\nThere are some historical evidences too to prove the existence of surgical\npractice in Chola Kingdom. There was an hospital in memory of Sundara\nChola at Tanjore, in which a doctor, Pharmacist, a dresser and two female\nnursing assistants were performed duty.
\nThere are some clinical conditions which can not be addressed through\nmedical managements. Surgical treatment is the only option to address\nsuch kind of issues. Those are listed in the syllabus and curriculum of\nBSMS course. There are suitable specific traditional surgical practices\nrecommended by siddhars to treat successfully. They are also being\ntaught to the siddha medicos.
\nDue to the advancement of the Science and Technology, some traditional\nsurgical practices are become out of date. More over emergence of\nvirulent pathogens due to abuse of antibiotics and non availability of\nherbal analgesics due to narcotic abuse made traditional surgical practice\ninto pathetic situation.
\nAny how, medicos should be able to differentiate and diagnose surgical\nconditions exactly and to do the needy surgical treatment hence this\nsubject is included in the curriculum. In our hospital, an OPD with two\nspecialists and IPD with 15 beds, this department is functioning. A minor\noperation theatre with required infrastructure is functioning. An\nexperimental surgical lab is established in the department for teaching\npurpose and better understanding of this subject.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
