What Are the Best Rheumatoid Arthritis Ayurvedic Medicines? - #11203

For the past year, I’ve been dealing with rheumatoid arthritis, and the pain and stiffness are starting to disrupt my daily life. I’ve been looking into alternative remedies and am curious about rheumatoid arthritis Ayurvedic medicine and how effective it is for managing symptoms like joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. Most of my pain is concentrated in my fingers, wrists, and knees. It’s especially bad in the mornings when I wake up, and it takes me nearly an hour to get any mobility back. My doctor prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs, which help temporarily but come with side effects like stomach discomfort. That’s why I’m eager to explore Ayurveda, which I’ve heard focuses on long-term solutions by addressing the root causes. I’ve come across mentions of Ayurvedic medicines like Mahayograj Guggulu, Dashmoolarishta, and Shallaki (boswellia) for joint health. But I’m unsure about the right combinations and dosages. Are there any ready-made formulations or specific herbs that are considered the best rheumatoid arthritis Ayurvedic medicines? Should they be taken alongside conventional medicines, or can they work independently? I’ve also read about Panchakarma treatments like Virechana and Basti, which are supposed to detox the body and balance the doshas. Has anyone tried these therapies for rheumatoid arthritis? Are they effective, and how long does it take to see noticeable improvement? Lastly, I’m curious about dietary changes. I’ve read that Ayurveda recommends avoiding acidic and inflammatory foods, while adding turmeric, ginger, and fenugreek to the diet. Do these really help, or are there other specific foods that work better for managing arthritis? If you’ve used Ayurvedic medicine for rheumatoid arthritis, I’d love to hear your experience. What worked best for you, and were there any side effects to be cautious of?
