Oh man, that sounds incredibly tough. Nerve injuries, especially involving the ulnar and median nerves, can be pretty complex, and it sounds like you went through a lot with surgeries. I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this, surgeries don’t always bring the results we hope for, right? It’s frustrating, especially after all effort and time you invested. Let’s see if there’s anything on the Ayurvedic side that might offer some soothing or support.
First, since you’re dealing with nerve and muscle issues, strengthening Pitta, specifically its sub-type Sadhaka Pitta which plays a part in mental clarity and focus, might be useful. Maybe focusing on foods that help balance Vata as well, since Vata governs the nervous system, could help. Think about adding warming spices such as ginger, ashwagandha, and also ghee into your diet - they’re known for nurturing nerve tissues.
I also suggest Abhyanga, a self-massage with warm sesame oil daily. It aids in soothing Vata imbalances and can help relax muscles. Make sure the oil is warmed to comfort – massage gently – but do consult your doctor to ensure there’s no contradiction with your condition.
Pay attention to your digestion too, 'cause it’s always key in Ayurveda. Keeping the Agni, your digestive fire, strong can ensure nutrients are effectively absorbed. Simple practices like warm lemon water in the morning or avoiding cold meals might help.
Of course, don’t forget the emotional toll all this can take, yeah? Perhaps incorporating meditation or gentle breathing exercises could ease stress and improve overall wellbeing. If you can, find a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner near your place for hands-on treatments like Shirodhara or Panchakarma therapies—sometimes personal guidance from a pro makes a world of a difference.
And while we focus here, don’t delay seeking further medical advice if needed. Ayurveda can complement, but not replace modern treatments, especially in such complex cases. Stay open to blending both worlds for optimal care! 🤞
