What Is the Meaning of Haemorrhoids in Telugu, and How Are They Treated in Ayurveda? - #12061

Haemorrhoids, or కర్నాశి (karnasani) in Telugu, are indeed swollen veins in the lower rectum and anus, often causing discomfort, irritation, and sometimes bleeding. Ayurveda sees this condition as "Arsha," stemming from an imbalance in the doshas, particularly Vata. The approach in Ayurveda focuses on restoring balance, supporting digestion (agni), and reducing inflammation. Triphala is wonderful for this, it's a blend of three fruits that works like magic for digestive health. It helps in softening the stool, preventing strain during bowel movements - that's super important to avoid worsening haemorrhoids. You can take half to a teaspoon of Triphala powder with warm water before bed. Consistency is key here. Aloe Vera is another gem. It's soothing and can be applied externally to reduce inflammation and provide relief. Just make sure you're using the gel from a fresh Aloe leaf—not the store-bought kind with preservatives. Witch Hazel, while not traditionally Ayurvedic, is sometimes used for its astringent properties which help reduce swelling and bleeding when applied topically (be gentle when doing so). In terms of diet, you wanna include a lot of fiber-rich foods. Think leafy greens, whole grains, and plenty of fruits. Drinking warm water throughout the day can assist in digestion. Avoid spicy, fried, and too much salty food—these can aggravate your condition. Eating meals at regular intervals instead of erratic timings is also advised. Lifestyle-wise, regular movement like yoga or even brisk walking promotes good circulation and digestion. Avoid sitting for long periods; take breaks to stand or move around every now and then. As for side effects or precautions, by and large Ayurvedic treatments are mild and natural but always listen to your body. If you mix Ayurveda with Western medicines, do check with a healthcare provider 'cause interactions can sometimes threw unexpected wrenches. This isn’t a substitute for professional medical advice, especially if your symptoms are severe, so see a doctor if it's painful or there's significant bleeding. Ayurvedically, you're looking at a holistic lifestyle adjustment—don’t just rely on herbs alone! Get yourself checked and follow guidance from an Ayurvedic practitioner closely.
