It is an annoying problem seen in both genders during adolescence which can even decrease one’s self-esteem and confidence. In Ayurveda<em> Yuvana Pidaka</em> is described under <em>Ksudra rogas</em>, which is caused due to vitiation of <em>Kapha, Vata doshas</em> and <em>Rakta dushti.</em> It is considered as <em>Sukra dhatu mala</em> by <em>Acarya Sarangadhara</em>. If this problem is not addressed properly these <em>Pidakas</em> may become chronic and can leave permanent scars. So, better understanding of <em>the Nidana, Lakshanas and Samprapthi</em> of disease helps the physician to opt for accurate treatment. This article emphasizes on the literature available for this disease in classics and establishes a clear understanding of the <em>Nidana Panchaka</em>. All the formulations described in this article are from various Ayurvedic classics which were time tested and prove their efficacy even in this present era and are safe and economic.</p&gt;}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharma Research}, author={G Sreedevi and P Srikanth Babu and D R Sunil Kumar}, year={2021}, month={Mar.}, pages={56-60} }
