Hello, Given your symptoms of shooting shoulder pain, weight gain, and hair fall at age 50, Ayurveda suggests a state of Vata-Kapha imbalance, likely coinciding with the peri-menopausal or menopausal transition. The shooting pain indicates Vatavyadhi (Vata-related nerve or joint aggravation), while the weight gain and visceral fat point to slowed Dhatu Agni (metabolic fire). For Shoulder Pain (Vata Management) Myaxyl Capsule: 1 capsule twice daily after food. (Relieves inflammation and shooting nerve pain). Kottamchukkadi Thailam: Warm the oil and apply locally to the left shoulder. Leave for 30 minutes before a warm bath. (Reduces stiffness and pain). For Hair Fall & Hormonal Balance Kesini oil: Apply to the scalp 30 minutes before washing. (Cools the head and strengthens roots) Chyavanprash: 1 teaspoon every morning on an empty stomach. (Acts as a Rasayana to support nutrition and hormonal health during menopause). For Weight & Metabolism Varanadi Kwath Tablets: 2 tablets twice daily, 30 minutes before food. (Helps reduce internal fat and balances Kapha). Important Notes Frozen Shoulder/Cervical Warning: Shooting pain in the left shoulder at 50 can sometimes be referred pain from the neck or, occasionally, related to cardiovascular health. Please consult a physician to rule out Cervical Spondylosis or cardiac issues. Diet: Continue your early dinners. Focus on warm, cooked foods and avoid cold, raw salads which can aggravate Vata (pain). Professional Advice: While these are standard Kerala Ayurveda products, it is essential to consult a practitioner for a physical examination before starting a new regimen.
