Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Baliospermum montanum, commonly known as Danti in Ayurveda, is traditionally used in various formulations for its purported analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. In classical Ayurvedic texts, Baliospermum is described as a potent purgative (Virechana dravya) and is included in herbal preparations aimed at relieving pain, swelling, and musculoskeletal complaints, which can include backache. The root and other parts of the plant are employed in decoctions or pastes for ailments involving pain and stiffness. However, these uses are largely based on historical and ethnomedicinal practices, rather than robust clinical evidence.

Modern scientific research on Baliospermum's efficacy specifically for backache is limited. Some preclinical studies have demonstrated anti-inflammatory and analgesic potential in animal models, but these are not specific to back pain and are not corroborated by high-quality human trials. Therefore, while the traditional use of Baliospermum for backache is well documented in Ayurvedic literature, contemporary scientific validation remains minimal. Overall, its use for this indication is justified primarily by tradition, and the evidence rating is moderate due to the lack of direct scientific studies focused on backache.
