Since you’ve been living with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) for 12 years, and your right side is non-functional, the focus should be on: ✅ Slowing progression ✅ Managing symptoms (pain, stiffness, fatigue, mobility issues, bowel/bladder function) ✅ Improving nerve health and muscle function ✅ Reducing inflammation & strengthening the immune system These won’t cure MS, but they can help support nerve function, reduce fatigue, and improve mobility If interested I can advice you the treatment

Hello Murtaza, How is your digestion and bowel movement? What is your weight? For managing Secondary Progressive MS, Ayurveda offers external therapies to relieve pain, stiffness, and improve mobility: Abhyanga (Oil Massage): Daily massage with Mahanarayan Oil or Dhanwantharam Oil reduces stiffness and nourishes nerves. Pizhichil: A continuous stream of warm oil with gentle massage strengthens muscles and eases pain. Kati Basti or Greeva Basti: Warm oil retention on the back or neck reduces nerve compression and inflammation. Shirodhara: Pouring warm oil on the forehead calms the nervous system and reduces stress. Patra Pinda Sweda: Herbal leaf poultices are applied to reduce pain, spasms, and inflammation. These therapies should be done under expert supervision for best results. Internal medications cannot be recommended without a proper physical examination, as treatment needs to be personalised based on your body constitution and current health status.

Wow, 12 years is quite the journey. Living with secondary progressive MS and those symptoms like extreme fatigue, a loose bladder, and use of a crutch due to right-side impairment, must be very challenging. Ayurvedic principles can offer some support, though it's always key to work hand-in-hand with your regular medical treatment. Let's tackle fatigue first. Fatigue often links to a Kapha imbalance mixed with weak Agni, or digestive fire. Sipping on warm ginger tea throughout the day, or starting your morning with it, might assist to ignite that digestive fire. Also, incorporating small amounts of warming spices in your diet like cumin, coriander, and fennel could aid in maintaining entrey and energy. With having bladder issues, a bit tricky, but ensuring you're not having fluids that aggravate your condition is important. Avoid cold drinks, minimize caffeine, and perhaps dairies too. A decoction with Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa) could be tried —this herb is known to support kidney and urinary functions. Just have about half teaspoon in warm water once a day. Regarding mobility and dead sensation on your right side, a simple abhyanga, or self-massage with warm sesame oil might help. This can improve circulation and nourish the tissues, though do it gently, avoiding any pressure points. Remember, these are supportive strategies from an Ayurvedic perspective, meant to complement, not replace, your current treatment. Keep an open line of communication with your neurologist too. Also, this journey's a marathon, not a sprint, little steps towards holistic wellness can indeed make a difference!
