छोटे मेनिस्कस टियर और सिस्ट का इलाज आयुर्वेद से कैसे करें या क्या आर्थ्रोस्कोपी जरूरी है? - #55755

A small meniscus tear with a small cyst can often be managed successfully with Ayurvedic treatment and proper lifestyle care, especially if the pain, swelling, or locking is mild. Arthroscopy is not always necessary in every case. In Ayurveda, this condition is mainly related to aggravated Vata dosha affecting the knee joint (Sandhi). Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, improving lubrication, strengthening cartilage, and promoting natural healing. Ayurvedic Management Internal medicines may help reduce pain, swelling, stiffness, and support tissue repair. Abhyanga (medicated oil massage) and Janu Basti help nourish the knee joint and improve mobility. Panchakarma therapies can reduce chronic inflammation and stiffness. Herbs commonly used include formulations containing Shallaki, Guggulu, Ashwagandha, Rasna, and Nirgundi. Important Self-Care Avoid squatting, stair overuse, jumping, and sitting cross-legged. Use mild knee strengthening exercises and physiotherapy guidance. Maintain healthy body weight to reduce pressure on the knee. Warm oil application and gentle stretching may provide relief. When Arthroscopy May Be Needed Arthroscopy is usually considered if: Knee gets locked frequently Severe pain or instability persists Walking becomes difficult Tear is large or worsening Symptoms do not improve after conservative treatment for a few months
