I would need more information to understand the root cause of your nerve strain and pain. Could you share any history of injuries, trauma, or long-term posture issues? Are you experiencing any numbness, tingling, or weakness in the feet or legs? Have you noticed any swelling or other signs of inflammation in the affected areas? Additionally, are there any digestive, emotional, or lifestyle factors that may be contributing to the condition?
In Ayurveda, pain and strain in the feet and legs, especially with nerve involvement, often points to an imbalance in Vata dosha, which governs movement and sensation in the body. This can be caused by dryness, coldness, and poor circulation affecting the nerves and muscles. Chronic strain or improper alignment can also cause blockage in energy flow (prana), resulting in discomfort.
For relief, I recommend Ashwagandha (an anti-inflammatory herb) and Turmeric to reduce inflammation and support the nervous system. Dashmool (a combination of 10 herbs) is particularly effective for Vata-related pain and can help soothe muscle and nerve strain. Nirgundi (Vitex negundo) and Guduchi are also useful for reducing pain and supporting joint and muscle function.
External treatments such as Abhyanga (oil massage) using Mahanarayan oil or Ashwagandha oil on the affected areas, followed by warm compresses, can help soothe the nerves and improve circulation. Additionally, Basti (Ayurvedic enema therapy) may be considered in severe cases to deeply cleanse and balance Vata dosha.

Sounds like you’re dealing with a lot of discomfort there. With pain that's radiating and seems deeply rooted, we can look at a few Ayurvedic ways to manage and hopefully alleviate some of that. First thing is understanding your dosha and if there's an imbalance at play here. Since you’re experiencing this combo of nerve and muscle strain, there might be an increased vatadosha. Vata being linked with air and ether elements, can lead to dryness and issues like nerve pain when out of balance.
Let's talk about a few practical steps you might try. Abhyanga, or self-massage with warm sesame oil, could be beneficial. It can soothe vata and helps with circulation. Spend few minutes each day massaging your feet and legs, always moving in a direction towards the heart. It's a simple thing, but very grounding.
Also maybe try some warm foot soaks with Epsom salts – really good for relaxation and easing tension. Just soak for around 15 minutes, before you go to bed should do.
Diet-wise, incorporating more warming, moist foods might help balance vata too. Think cooked veggies, hearty soups or stews, adding some warming spices like ginger and turmeric could provide relief.
And yoga or some gentle stretching would be beneficial, but again, listen to your body, don't push it. Postures like Vajrasana (Thunderbolt Pose) or Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-The-Wall Pose) could be quite soothing.
Of course, if the pain gets worse or doesn’t improve, it's really important to consult with a medical professional to rule out something requiring more urgent attention. Ayurveda works beautifully alongside Western medicine, so don’t hesitate to seek a comprehensive approach. Take care and be gentle with yourself.
