What Is Epidural Hematoma and How Can Ayurveda Help in Supporting Brain Health and Recovery? - #16161

A friend of mine recently suffered an epidural hematoma after a minor head injury, and I wanted to learn more about the condition and how Ayurveda can help in supporting recovery and brain health. From what I understand, epidural hematoma occurs when blood accumulates between the outer layer of the brain and the skull, often due to a traumatic injury. The pressure from the accumulated blood can affect brain function and lead to serious symptoms, such as headache, nausea, and loss of consciousness. But what I do not fully understand is why some people experience epidural hematoma more severely than others. Does the size of the hematoma or the area of injury determine the severity of symptoms and recovery? I have read that Ayurveda focuses on improving circulation and reducing inflammation to support healing. Are there Ayurvedic herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi, or Guduchi that can help improve brain health and reduce recovery time after head injuries? Also, does Ayurveda recommend specific therapies, such as Shirodhara (oil pouring treatment) or Nasya (nasal oil therapy), to promote relaxation and healing for brain-related issues? Another thing I am wondering about is whether diet and hydration play a role in recovery. Should I be eating brain-boosting foods like ghee, walnuts, and flaxseeds, and are there any specific herbs that aid in reducing internal bleeding or promoting healthy circulation? If anyone has recovered from an epidural hematoma using Ayurvedic methods, I would love to hear what worked for them. I want to support brain health naturally and aid in a smooth recovery process.
