Overview
Mansarohini is one of the herbs traditionally used in Ayurveda for bleeding disorders. Mansarohini (Soymida febrifuga) is a large tree primarily valued for promoting wound healing and tissue regeneration, as suggested by its name 'Mansarohini' (flesh-growing). The heartwood is red in colour. The bark is extremely bitter and astringent. It is mainly used in fracture healing, wound management, and as a febrifuge. The bark is used in diarrhoea due to its astringent properties. It is found commonly in Rajputana and Central India. The bark contains tannin and a bitter principle useful in fevers. The timber is red and durable. Dose: bark decoction 1-2 tola; bark powder 2-4 masha.
