Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Bergenia pacumbis (commonly known as Pashanabheda) has been used in traditional medicine systems, particularly Ayurveda and Unani, for a range of ailments, especially those related to kidney stones and urinary tract disorders. Its use for ear infections or earache is not prominently documented in mainstream scientific literature. However, there are some references in ethnobotanical and traditional medicinal texts that mention its application for various inflammatory conditions, which may include earache. These uses are primarily based on its reputed anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, observed in vitro or in general, not specifically for ear infections. No robust clinical trials or scientific studies directly support the efficacy of Bergenia pacumbis for ear infections or earache in humans. The evidence for this application is therefore weak and mostly anecdotal or based on traditional practice rather than scientific validation. In summary, while Bergenia pacumbis is occasionally cited in traditional medicine for managing ear discomfort, there is minimal direct evidence—either historical or scientific—to strongly support its use for this purpose.
