Hi Candice, Can you describe if the wound is showing any signs of infection like redness or warmth? Do you experience any swelling or numbness around the area or in your arm? Also, how has your energy level been overall—any difficulty sleeping or feeling weak? Consider using Aloe Vera gel or Turmeric paste on the wound (after consulting your doctor) for its natural healing and anti-inflammatory properties. To manage pain, Ashwagandha or Brahmi may help reduce stress and muscle tension around your neck and shoulders. Keep your wound clean and protected to avoid further complications.

It sounds like your wound might be struggling to heal properly due to past trauma and possible underlying issues like poor circulation, infection, or scar tissue complications. Since it’s deep and painful, it’s important to ensure there’s no underlying infection or delayed healing due to other factors like diabetes or nutritional deficiencies. Once check your heamoglobin and blood sugar levels Start on Tab.nimghan vati 1 tab twice daily after food with lukewarm water Tab kaishore guggulu 1 tab twice daily after food with lukewarm water And let me know the reports

It's crucial to address a wound, especially post-surgery, that has burst open with significant pain. This could represent a serious medical issue, such as an infection or improper healing process. Prioritizing expert medical help from your healthcare provider is essential to assessing and treating this matter accurately and promptly. Early intervention is critical because such conditions necessitate timely medical treatments and not just home remedies. While seeking professional medical care, ensure the wound is clean and kept free from further irritants. Using sterile gauze and bandages is key here—as you're already doing. Ensure that you're changing these dressings regularly to prevent any risk of infection, however, this is temporary care intended to bridge until you're seen by a medical professional. In the scope of Ayurveda, healing is recognized as a holistic process. Addressing inflammation and possible aggravation of the doshas, especially Pitta (related to inflammation and heat) and Vata (related to physical movements and pains), is vital. Nutritionally, focus on soothing, cooling, and nourishing foods. Intake warm, cooked meals devoid of irritating spices. Avoid spicy, sour, and salty foods that could aggravate the body's internal balance. Including gentle spices like turmeric, which has anti-inflammatory properties, can help. Sip warm water infused with a small piece of ginger, aiding digestion and soothing the body. To alleviate neck and shoulder tension, gentle self-massage, using a few drops of warm sesame or coconut oil, may provide temporary relief—ensuring no pressure is applied around the wound area. Soft yoga practices, when the body isn't in acute pain, could support holistic relaxation. Key point is that Ayurvedic suggestions are supplementary to the immediate medical intervention. Wound care and potential systemic involvement of pain originating from the wound demands professional medical treatment. After consulting with your healthcare provider, complementary Ayurvedic strategies can be incorporated under guidance, thereby fostering a harmonious mind-body healing foundation.
