ABSTRACT
Yoga is becoming way of life world over to stay fit and agile both physically and mentally.

People and yoga trainers all over the world should be made aware of this complication of sutra neti as it is difficult to treat and has high recurrence rate.

ABSTRACT
Fibrous dysplasia represents a disturbance of normal bone development specifically a defect in osteoblastic differentiation and maturation that originates in the mesenchymal precursor of the bone. In fibrous dysplasia, the lesion expands, which leads to a distortion and weakening of bone. Although the lesion is not encapsulated, it tends to remain enclosed within a shell of cortical bone. This shell can be thinned as a result of the pressure exerted on it. As it slowly progresses, fibrous dysplasia can cause skeletal destruction and deformity.
