In Ayurveda Tundikeri is explained under diseases of oral cavity. This disease is grossly explained in Ayurvedic literature under classifications of Kantagata and Talugata roga. In contemporary science, it may be correlated to Tonsillitis. Tundikeri (tonsillitis) is commonly encountered now a days due to the dietary habits of taking spicy food, cold beverage, refrigerated milk products and cold climate. All people are equally prone basing on the immunity status. These factors coupled together results in recurrent episodes of disease. Tundikeri not only cripples children from majority of their enjoyable and learning movement but also makes adults to feel uneasy, restless and even bed ridden, if complication occurs. In Ayurveda Diseases can be diagnosed by the study of Nidana panchaka viz. Nidana (aetiology), Purvarupa (premonitory symptoms), Linga (actual symptoms), Upasaya (exploratory therapy) and Samprapti (pathogenesis). In the treatment point of view Samprapthi is very importent to selection of suitable drug. In this study it is explained Samprapti and Samprapti Vighatana of Tundikeri according to ayurvedic methodology References 1 Kaviraj Ambikadutta Shastri, Vaidya yadhavji Trikamji Acharya, Sushruta Samhitha, Chowkhamba Krishnadas academy,Varanasi 2008.
