Abstract: Cystitis is a condition of the urinary bladder in which diffuse inflammatory condition occurs, which may be due to an infectious or noninfectious aetiology that results in bleeding from the bladder mucosa. A 45-year-old male patient diagnosed with cystitis with recurrent hematuria was managed with Chiruvilvadi kashayam, Virataradi kashayam, Chandraprabha gulika and Cheriya antrakutaram gulika internally and dhanvantaram thailam pichu, avagaham with karanja, sigru, eranda, nirgundi patra, matra vasthi with pippalyadi anuvasana thailam and ksheeravasthi with gandharvahastadi kashayam. After completion of treatment, there was considerable relief in the primary complaints like foamy urine and low back pain associated with a burning sensation. This case report highlights the role of Ayurveda in the management of cystitis with recurrent hematuria and sheds light for further study on the same.
