Hello Saumendra, could you provide more details about the onset and duration of these symptoms? Have you undergone any recent tests, such as X-rays or MRIs, to assess the extent of ossification or joint changes? any other underlying health conditions? What is the level of hemoglobin? What medications are you on?
Ooh, that sounds rough, experiencing all of that at once. It’s not uncommon to see symptoms like yours in conditions like DISH (Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis) and fibromyalgia. Although ayurveda has its unique approach to such issues, it’s super important to chat with your healthcare provider to get a complete picture. Ayurveda can complement modern treatments really well!
For the ossification and pain in hip tendons, there can be involvement of increased Vata dosha and Ama (toxins). Maybe look into a warm, Vata-pacifying diet — think warm, cooked foods like stews and soups. Try to avoid very cold and dry foods, they’re likely to aggravate Vata even more. Lots of warm herbs like ginger and turmeric could help reduce inflammation and stiffness. Always include them in your meals or teas.
As for whole body pain and fatigue, take it easy and don’t push yourself too hard. Gentle activities like yoga or tai chi can help gradually enhance mobility without straining your body. Even a few minutes a day could make a difference. But, start slow and see how your body responds!
Maybe consider Abhyanga (self-massage) with warm sesame or Mahanarayana oil. Massaging can improve blood circulation and facilitate removal of toxins from tissues. Ideally do this in the morning before showering, giving the oil half hour to work into the skin.
Herbal remedies like Ashwagandha could be useful for managing stress and fatigue, since it’s an adaptogenic herb that helps the body deal with stress and supports energy balance.
Minimize ama by boosting your digestive fire (Agni). Small changes like sipping warm water throughout the day can be awesome for this — it’s simple but effective.
Remember though, everyone’s body is different. Tailor these suggestions to your lifestyle but keeping aligned with your health provider’s advice. And importantly, reach out to them immediately for any sharp pains or significant changes. Stay safe!
