In ayurveda we focus on blood and veins. Since there is damage to veins causing stagnation of resulting into leg pain, swelling and heavyness, so the treatment includes medication which gives strength to veins and reduce the symptoms.

Hi Gangadhar,
I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with varicose veins and DVT. Based on your symptoms:
1. How long have you been dealing with the swelling and leg pain? Is it constant, or does it vary throughout the day?
2. Are you experiencing any other symptoms like leg cramps, redness, or skin changes around the affected area?
3. Do you currently have a regular exercise or movement routine to improve circulation, or are you often sedentary?

Treatin varicose veins, especially with symptoms like swelling and pain, needs careful attention, particularly since you're on valproic acid for bipolar disorder. Ayurveda can offer supportive care, but be sure to always stay in touch with your doctor for serious conditions like DVT. Here’re some ways Ayurveda could help:
First thing is to know your dosha which might be imbalanced, may be Kapha or Pitta.. So, consider reducing Kapha-aggravating foods—like dairy or cold foods that increase congestion. Favor warm, light meals, like soups or steamed veggies. Try to include some spices like turmeric (anti-inflammatory), cumin, and ginger in your cooking.
Triphala, an ancient Ayurvedic formulation, could also be helpful. It aids digestion and improves circulation. You can take it as a powder—1 teaspoon with warm water before bed. Ashwagandha might also support your circulation and relieve fatigue. But, I’d suggest checking with a practitioner before taking new supplements.
For the heaviness and pain, a gentle oil massage (Abhyanga) with warm sesame oil can be soothing, do it daily before shower. Massage towards the heart wherever possible, with firm but gentle strokes. You might wanna keep your leg elevated while resting.
Exercise is tricky but vital. Regular, mild movement—like a short walk on flat ground—helps improve circulation. Avoid sitting or standing for too long. If possible, consider learning Yogic practices focused on boosting circulation, but do consult someone familiar with your health conditions.Twisting poses should be approached with caution.
And remember, always prioritize serious medical symptoms like sudden leg swelling or sharp pain. DVT might need immediate attention, so be vigilant. Your health journey should combine both modern medicine and Ayurveda, with safety always coming first.
