Rejuvenation of damaged peroneal nerve - #19695

When did this happen? Did it happen immediately or gradually? Any other symptoms like numbness in the leg etc?

Hi Christian, I'm sorry to hear about the footdrop and nerve damage you're experiencing. To help with the healing process, I'd first ask: 1. Have you had any physical therapy or rehabilitation for your footdrop since the injury? 2. Do you experience any numbness or tingling sensations along with the weakness in your foot? In Ayurveda, to support nerve regeneration, we would focus on improving circulation and reducing inflammation. Herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi, and Turmeric are known for their nerve-healing properties. Additionally, practices like Abhyanga (oil massage with warm herbal oils) and Shirodhara (oil therapy) can help promote healing and reduce nerve damage. A holistic approach, including strengthening exercises and a balanced diet, is crucial for nerve recovery.

Hello What all treatments were you followed in the past years. Are u facing any lifestype disorders,....... Have you done any foot massage earlier. If not advising KHAJITHA PINDA THAILA for external application over foot and massage,

Oh gosh, I'm really sorry to hear you’re dealing with this. Footdrop can be quite challenging, and since you mentioned the injury was caused by an injection, it can be tough, but let me share some Ayurvedic approaches that could help rejuvenate your nerve. First things first, from an Ayurvedic point of view, we wanna focus on Vata dosha here. Nerve issues like these often indicate vitiation in Vata. So, grounding and soothing Vata should be one of the first steps. In terms of diet, include warm, moist, and easily digestible foods. Ghee is fantastic for Vata, so use it in your cooking, maybe like a teaspoon daily, becareful tho if cholesterol is a concern. Also, add bananas, cooked carrots, and sweet potatoes – they’re grounding n nourishing. As for herbs, Ashwagandha is a superstar when it comes to nerve rejuvenation. You could take it in powder form with warm milk before bed, say half a teaspoon. It strengthens tissues, helps with stress, which is often a big part of healing nerve issues. But if ya have any milk intolerance, go with water. Abhyanga, or oil massage, particularly with Mahanarayan oil, could be really helpful. Warm a little bit of the oil and gently massage the leg daily, preferably in the morning. This improves circulation and helps regulate Vata. Practicing yoga asanas focusing on strengthening legs and promoting blood flow might help too. Poses like Tree Pose (Vriksasana), Warrior Pose (Virabhadrasana), always listening to your body and being careful not to strain anything. Definitely get in touch with a healthcare provider or consult an ayurvedic practitioner too. They can tailor treatments specifically for you. Sometimes integrating physiotherapy with Ayurveda can lead to wonderful outcomes. Life-style wise, keep stress at bay as much as possible. Meditation, and pranayama, especially Nadi Shodhana, are helpful for both balancing Vata and calming the nerves. I hope these suggestions help, but do keep monitoring and check back with your healthcare provider regularly.
