What Is Still's Disease and How Can Ayurveda Help in Managing Inflammation and Immune Function? - #16223
I recently read about Still's disease, which is a rare form of arthritis that causes high fevers, rashes, and joint pain. I want to understand more about Still's disease, its causes, symptoms, and how Ayurveda can help in managing the chronic inflammation and immune dysfunction associated with it. From what I understand, Still's disease is an inflammatory condition that primarily affects young adults and children, causing systemic inflammation that can lead to joint damage and severe complications. But what I don’t fully understand is what triggers the immune system to become hyperactive in this condition and why some people are more susceptible to Still's disease than others. I’ve read that Ayurveda emphasizes balancing the immune system (Ojas) and reducing inflammation through natural therapies. Are there Ayurvedic herbs like Turmeric, Ashwagandha, or Guggulu that can help in reducing the inflammation and controlling the immune response associated with Still's disease? Does Ayurveda recommend dietary changes, such as avoiding inflammatory foods or incorporating anti-inflammatory foods like ginger and garlic, to support immune function and manage symptoms? Another thing I am wondering about is whether Ayurveda suggests detoxification practices, such as Panchakarma, to cleanse the body of toxins and improve overall immune health, which can help in managing conditions like Still's disease. If anyone has experience managing Still's disease using Ayurvedic remedies, I would love to hear what worked for you.
