Time when a physician turned out to be a patient: A case study on how an Ayurvedic physician cured himself from COVID-19

Medical literature continues to get enriched through various researches and observations related to SARS-CoV-2 infection leading to COVID-19. Case reports play crucially to understand a novel clinical condition where much is yet to be known. Current pandemic is unique for the reason that its impacts upon front line health care workers (HCWs) are much higher than general population. In this situation, how an Ayurvedic physician has handled his own case leading to a cure from COVID-19 may furnish important information regarding mitigation and cure from the disease. This is also an unprecedented writing in medical literature as a physician reporting his own case is a rare phenomenon in medical history. This case report puts strongly the prophylactic and disease modifying potential of Ayurvedic interventions in COVID-19.
