Hey, sounds like you’re dealing with some uncomfortable digestion issues! In Ayurveda, this could be linked to a weakened “Agni” or digestive fire. When Agni is low, food might not digest properly, causing that bloating and constipation.
First off, try sipping on warm ginger water throughout the day. Just grate a small piece of ginger into hot water, let it steep for a bit. It can really help to ignite that digestive fire. Also, don’t eat raw foods right now - they can be tough on a sensitive stomach. Stick to warm, cooked meals which are easier to digest.
A good thing to help with this is Triphala. It’s a classic Ayurvedic remedy. Taking half a teaspoon with warm water before bed might do wonders for your bowels, plus it balances Vata dosha, which could be out of whack here.
Also, look at when you’re eating. Try having your largest meal at lunchtime around noon when your digestion is strongest. Skipping meals or eating at odd times can confuse your body. Regularity is key.
On a lifestyle note, check if you’re under stress. Stress can jack up Vata dosha, leading to all this. Deep breathing exercises or even a quick walk in nature, something like that can be a total game changer.
One last thing, if these symptoms keep persisting or get worse, go see a doc. Nothing substitutes proper medical advice whenever you’re in doubt.
Oh, and remember, keep hydrated - but not with cold drinks! Cold stuff can make Agni weak.
I hope these tips help you out and you start feeling better soon!
