Plantar fasciitis - #20196

Suman

ChatGPT said: My mother, who is over 60 years old, has been suffering from continuous heel pain due to plantar fasciitis for the past year. Despite visiting a neurologist and taking prescribed medications, the pain temporarily improves but does not completely go away. She has been dealing with this condition for several months, and the discomfort seems to return after a short period, even though she follows the prescribed treatment plan. Can you please advise on any long-term solutions or treatments that could help alleviate her pain permanently? Is there a more effective treatment or approach that can address the underlying issue of plantar fasciitis, especially given her age? We are looking for professional guidance on whether any specific therapies, lifestyle changes, exercises, or treatments might provide her with lasting relief. Your recommendations on how to manage this condition more effectively and prevent the pain from recurring would be greatly appreciated

### **Namaste!** In Ayurveda, **plantar fasciitis** is often associated with an imbalance of **Vata and Kapha doshas**, leading to **inflammation, stiffness, and recurring pain**. Since your mother is over 60, the **natural dominance of Vata** in aging can further aggravate the condition. A **holistic Ayurvedic approach** incorporating **herbal remedies, external therapies, dietary adjustments, and exercises** can help provide long-term relief. ### **Recommended Ayurvedic Remedies:** 1. **Maha Yograj Guggulu** – 1 tablet twice daily. 2. **Panchtikta Ghrit Guggulu** – 1 tablet twice daily. 3. **Praval Pishti (5 gm) + Ashwagandha Churna (50 gm)** – ½ teaspoon with honey. 4. **Dhanwantharam Tailam / Mahanarayan Tailam** – Warm oil massage on the heels twice daily. 5. **Herbal Lepa (Paste)** – Mix turmeric, ginger, and castor oil into a paste and apply to the heels for 30 minutes daily. 6. **Pada Sek (Foot Soak)** – Soak feet in warm water with **Triphala powder** for 15 minutes before bedtime. ### **Dietary & Lifestyle Recommendations:** ✅ **Include:** - **Turmeric** – Consume in **milk, warm water, or as part of meals** for its anti-inflammatory benefits. - **Fresh fruits and salads** – To nourish the body and reduce inflammation. ❌ **Avoid:** - **Tea and coffee** (as they can aggravate Vata). - **Fried and packaged foods** (which increase inflammation). By following these recommendations, she should experience **significant relief over time**. Let me know if you need further guidance! 🙏✨
