Hi Rakesh, I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with this pain.
Can you tell me if the pain is concentrated in a specific area of your back (like the lower back or upper back)?
Also, do you experience any numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs, or any changes in posture?
Sometimes, back pain can be related to muscle imbalances, stress, or even improper sleep posture. Ayurveda offers treatments like Ashwagandha, Guggulu, and Bala to support the muscles and spine, but it would be helpful to explore stress management techniques, gentle exercises, and proper ergonomic adjustments in your daily routine to improve sleep and mobility.

Hey Rakesh, dealing with back pain, especially at night, sounds annoying, and when it messes with sleep, it's just too much! Since it's been hanging around for months and regular doctor visits haven't helped, let's dive into some Ayurveda techniques for relief.
First, we gotta think about your doshas — Vata imbalance is usually linked to pain and stiffness. So, we want to calm Vata down. You can start with warming your system. Before bed, indulge in a sesame oil massage. Heat the oil a bit, just a lil warm, and gently work it into your back. It can soothe the muscles and help relax the stiffness you feel.
Your diet also plays a big role. Eating warm, cooked foods helps balance Vata. Think soups, stews, stuff that's easy to digest. Try to incorporate ginger, garlic, and turmeric, because they can reduce inflammation and pain. Remember, having dinner a few hours before sleep lets the digestion settle down nicely.
Now about sleep. Having a stable bedtime is important. And try some gentle stretching — nothing crazy! Before sleep, some yoga poses like the Child's Pose or Cat-Cow can ease the tension in your back. Google them if you're not sure how they look, but those positions are typically easy to do.
Lastly, pay attention to your sleeping environment. Is your mattress too firm or soft? Sometimes the simplest change makes a difference. Also, using a thin pillow under your knees can align the spine properly if you sleep on your back. If on your side, a pillow between your knees can help too!
While these suggestions can offer relief, you've already seen docs, so it's good to keep them in the loop. Don't hesitate to seek immediate care if things feel off, because health should come first for sure. If something's not improving or gets worse, more aggressive routes like imaging might be necessary. Stay comfortable and rest well!
