Primary immune deficiency diseases (PIDDs) are rare, genetic disorders that impair the immune system. The term “primary” implies that there is an independent problem of the immune system rather than a weakening of the immune system due to another condition like HIV/AIDS (a secondary immune deficiency). Primary immunodeficiency disease is most often identified in infants and children, but it is possible that the condition is identified in adulthood. PIDDs are broadly classified as disorders of adaptive immunity (i.e., T-cell, B-cell or combined   immune deficiencies) or of innate immunity (e.g., phagocyte and complement disorders). There are hundreds of different types of primary immunodeficiency diseases. Examples of some of the more commonly known primary immunodeficiency diseases include Severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID), Di-George syndrome, Ataxia- telangiectasia etc.

In Ayurveda, in normal state, in a healthy human body – Vata, Pitta and Kapha Dosha irrespective of opposite qualities   co-exist each other rather than contradicting each other. This is termed as Sahaja-Satmya, which the conventional system coined as the so-called immune tolerance. Hence, this is the reason why the body’s own immune cells are not attacking self   In Ayurvedic point of view, due to the influence of Daiva (past deeds or unknown factors) or due to Svabhavika   Karanas   (in which we can include all the initiating autoimmune reaction such as microbial, genetic, immunological) causes imbalance or disequilibrium to the Sahaja Satmya. There by the immune cells lose the ability to identify self from non – self or foreign agents.

Causes of Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases
