Sir, regarding diet you mentioned as below, Diet Give only: moong khichdi + ghee, pomegranate, coconut water Avoid completely: spicy/sour, cold drinks, fried food.
Should I take only moong khichdi + ghee, pomegranate, coconut water for breakfast, dinner and lunch ? Please clarify.
Reg exercise, is vajrasana safe for disc hernia in l4 l5 ?
It means that you can have these but avoid things like Cold bath, packaged food items, excess sugar, long walks, cold water for drinking, sour food items like curd/buttermilk, avoid Paneer/Cheese, freezed items. These things will aggravate Vata (which will cause pain). Eat properly cooked food and drink warm water. Make sure your digestion is proper and avoid constipation. Yes you can do vajrasan post dinner for 4-5 minutes but if you feel pain at lower back, then avoid it.
Thanks a lot sir. This is my story;
I had gone for panchaboitha treatment three months ago due to avoid progression of disc bulge in lumbar area though major symptoms. I was able to walk without any single pain. It was 15 days therapy. After 10 days of therapy, I had slight difficulty in right walking and neck stiffness. As per Dr, we took MRI that showed disc hernia that I didn’t have before the therapy. Dr suggested steroid injection to alleviate nerve inflammation and to shrink disc het8.
After steroid injection, symptoms got worse. New back pain which I didn’t have before steroid injection, tingling on and off and increased leg weakness while walking I feel more now. My MRI showed disc protrusion in L3 l4 and with slight herniation with nerve compression in foraminal area. Symptom wise, I had slight weakness in right leg walking. But after steroid, more symptoms also in left leg tingling. I am worried if I can come out of the situation. In both the treatment, I got more problem. Not sure what to do. Please let me know if I can come out of this bad situation.
I’m sorry to hear about the challenges you’re facing. What you’re describing sounds like a flare up or progression of nerve compression, possibly from inflammation or positional strain during recovery. The good news is that at your stage recovery is absolutely possible with the right conservative approach.
For the next 2–4 weeks, prioritize complete bed rest with legs elevated (use pillows) for 20–30 minutes 3–4 times a day. No heavy lifting, bending or long sitting/standing. Use a back support belt if walking short distances.
If pain is unbearable, short-term pain management (like mild analgesics) might be needed, but avoid more injections for now.
Ayurvedic medicines safe and effective for your situation. Maharasnadi Kwath – 20 ml + 20 ml warm water, morning empty stomach Yogaraja Guggulu – 2 tablets morning + 2 tablets night after food Dashmoolarishta – 20 ml + 20 ml water after lunch and dinner Ekangveer Ras – 1 tablet morning + 1 tablet night with warm water
If possible then go for Katibasti at your nearby Panchakarma centre for 10 days. It’s basically pooling of oil at the lower back or the effect lumbo-sacral spine. You will find a great improvement. Full recovery is possible in 6–12 months with consistency. Repeat MRI after 3 months to check progress. Stay positive and Feel free to update me on progress.
