PT INR full form and how can Ayurveda help with blood clotting issues? - #16698
Last month, my uncle had a minor stroke, and it was a huge shock for our family. He never had major health issues before, but suddenly, he felt dizzy, his speech became unclear, and his hand felt weak. We rushed him to the hospital, and luckily, it wasn’t a severe stroke, but the doctors said his blood was clotting irregularly. They did a test called PT INR and said they needed to monitor his levels regularly to make sure his blood isn’t too thick or too thin. When I asked the doctor about the PT INR full form, he explained that PT stands for Prothrombin Time and INR stands for International Normalized Ratio. Basically, it measures how quickly the blood clots and helps doctors decide if blood thinners are needed. Since my uncle now has to take blood-thinning medications daily, we are really worried about the side effects, like excessive bleeding, bruising, and weakness. We want to explore Ayurveda as a natural way to manage his blood clotting and circulation. Are there Ayurvedic remedies that can help regulate blood thickness naturally? Can Ayurveda offer an alternative to blood thinners so he doesn’t have to rely on them forever? Also, does Ayurveda suggest any specific foods or herbs that support healthy blood flow while keeping PT INR levels balanced? If anyone has managed blood clotting issues with Ayurveda, I’d love to hear what worked. Is it possible to control PT INR naturally without depending on lifelong medication? Any herbal remedies or lifestyle changes that have been effective?
