What Is Meckel's Diverticulum and How Can Ayurveda Help in Managing It? - #14927
A few months ago, I went for a routine check-up, and during the investigation, my doctor diagnosed me with Meckel's diverticulum. They explained that it's a congenital condition where a small pouch forms in the small intestine, but since I wasn’t showing any major symptoms, they suggested monitoring the condition rather than any immediate treatments. However, I’ve been reading about possible complications, like infection, bleeding, or even blockages, which made me anxious. I’ve had some mild discomfort and bloating in my abdomen, but it’s not constant, and I’ve been trying to manage it with diet changes. Still, I’m not sure how to go about long-term management. I’m curious if Ayurveda offers any natural remedies for conditions like Meckel's diverticulum, especially since I want to avoid surgery if possible. Can Ayurveda help by balancing the digestive system, reducing inflammation, and preventing complications related to Meckel's diverticulum? I’ve heard about the benefits of herbs like Triphala, and I wonder if these could support digestive health and alleviate some of my symptoms. Are there specific foods or practices in Ayurveda that can help prevent further issues with the diverticulum and support my overall gut health? Has anyone here dealt with Meckel's diverticulum and found relief using Ayurvedic methods? What natural treatments helped you manage the condition and improve your digestion?
