Your body has gone through intense inflammation, weakness, and recovery phases
The good news is even after such heavy challenges. The body has the ability to heal gradually when given the right kind of nourishment and balance.
Ayurveda helps in supporting this recovery gently without disturbing your ongoing medical line of treatment
After Covid, the lung often go through a stage called fibrosis where the delicate air sacs and tissues that help you breathe, become stiff and less elastic
In Ayurveda, we understand this as the result of vata (dryness stiffness, degeneration) and kapha (mucus congestion) imbalance
These two together make the lung tissues, less flexible, and filled with residual inflammation
When this happens, oxygen transfer becomes difficult and the body tires easily
Long-term inflammation, also disturbs the blood circulation and sometimes due to reduced movement and sluggish flow, blood clot(deep vein, thrombosis) can form in the legs
This is again seen as a stagnation of vata and rakta flow in Ayurveda
