The weakness on the left side, wrist and foot drop, and depression indicate blocked channels (Srotas) and impaired nerve function. Managing Vata and restoring the body's balance are essential for recovery. Since hypertension is present, a proper physical examination and detailed assessment by an Ayurvedic Vaidya are necessary before prescribing any specific treatment or medicines . However, you can follow general Ayurvedic dietary and lifestyle guidelines to support recovery. Diet Guidelines Eat a Vata-pacifying diet that includes warm, soft, and well-cooked foods. Include healthy fats like ghee and sesame oil for nerve nourishment. Consume moong dal, cooked vegetables, and whole grains like rice and wheat. Avoid cold, dry, or raw foods, as well as excess caffeine, sugar, and fried items. Add turmeric and ginger to your meals to reduce inflammation and support circulation. Pomegranate, amla, and raisins are beneficial for heart health and provide antioxidants. Lifestyle Guidelines Follow a regular daily routine with proper sleep and early waking. Gentle oil massage (Abhyanga) using warm sesame oil or Mahanarayan oil can help improve circulation and relieve muscle stiffness. 2-3 times per week is ideal. Steam bath can enhance the benefits but monitor your blood pressure. Practice mild yoga and stretching exercises under supervision to improve mobility. Simple movements like joint rotations and leg lifts can be helpful. Pranayama like Anulom Vilom and Bhramari can calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and support mental clarity. Maintain emotional well-being with relaxation techniques like meditation and spending time in nature. Additional Tips Drink warm water throughout the day to aid digestion and keep toxins away. Avoid mental stress, as it aggravates Vata and can slow down recovery. Regular follow-ups with your physician to monitor blood pressure and blood sugar levels are essential. A personalized treatment plan, including therapies like Panchakarma or specific Ayurvedic medicines, should only be recommended after a detailed in-person assessment.
