Hello Ravi, according to your symptoms it point toward cervical spondylotic myelopathy or cervical rediculopathy , resulting from cervical spondylosis

NECK AND SHOULDER PAIN- due to degenerative disc compression or osteophyte formation affecting cervical nerves DIZZINESS- due to vertevrobasilar insufficiency (arteries passing through cervical spine getting compressed) NUMBNESS IN HANDS/LEGS WITH DIFFICULTY IN WALKING/SITTING- indicates nerve root or spinal cord compression

I will recommend you some investigations to rule out 1) MRI CERVICAL SPINE- to confirm nerve or spinal cord compression 2) X RAY cervical spine- AP AND LATERAL VIEWS

PROBABLE TREATMENT WHICH IS BENEFICIAL IN YOUR CASE- 100% EFFECTIVE

EXTERNAL THERAPY- FOR THIS IF FEASIBLE GO FOR PANCHAKARMA TREATMENT AS THIS WILL HEAL YOU EARLY - go for Greeva basti -oil pooling on cervical region - 7 sitting Abhyanga ( therapeutic massage)- with Mahanarayan taila nadi sweda(medicated steam) PIZHICHILL( if radiating pain is severe) BASTI CHIKITSA- best for pain

IF NOT THAN ALSO INTERNAL MEDICATION WILL BE BENEFICIAL BUT DURATION OF TREATMENT WILL BE 3-6 MONTHS OF CONTINUOUS MEDICATION INTAKE

1)TRAYODASHANG GUGGULU- 2 tab twice a day after food with warm water- 6-8 weeks continuous 2) YOGRAJ GUGGULU- 2 tab twice a day after food with warm water- 6 weeks 3)EKANGVEERA RASA- 125 MG once a day with honey or warm water- 21 days 4) Dashmool kasaya- 30 ml with water warm twice day after meals- 2-3 months continue 5)Rasnadi kwath- 15 ml with water twice a day after meals - 4-6 weeks

externally :- 1) Nasya- Anu taila , 2 drops in each nostril, daily morning - for 1 month 2) MAHANARAYAN TAILA - gentle massage on neck and shoulder, followed by warm fomentation

PHYSIOTHERAPY SESSION WHICH WILL BE HELPFUL TO YOU- neck isometric exercises postural correction techniques cervical traction avoid neck flexion and long screen time (UNDER SUPERVISION STRICTLY)

do’s :- Sit with spine straight , use lumbar and neck support Use cervical pillow while traveling or working perform gentle neck exercises regularly Apply hot fomentation regularly on neck and shoulder region include turmeric milk, flax seeds and almonds in diet eat calcium rich food more practice anulom vilom

avoid- AC and cold exposure avoid high pillows or soft mattress don’t lift heavy weight avoid using long time phone or screen by. bending neck

can perform yoga at home very cautiously gentle neck rotation- clockwise and anti-clockwise- 5 rounds neck side bending- ear to shoulder, alternate sides- 5 reps Neck flexion and extension- chin to chest, then look up- 5 reps neck retraction- gentle tuck chin backward- 5 reps

shoulder and spine activation- shoulder rolls- forward and backward- 10 times each Goumukhasana arm(without leg position)- stretch shoulder nerves Marjariasana(cow cat pose)- 5-7 rounds bhujangasana- 2 reps

relaxation stretches- balasana, shashankasana

always close with shavasana deep breathing practice every morning use pillow if needed maintain straight spine during seated pose avoid sudden jerks or neck rolls don’t hoold pose that increase pain

do this regularly and see visible improvement in 15 days

hope this is helpful thank you

Your heart is not connected with these symptoms. Numbness, dizziness etc is due to cervical spondylosis itself.

These symptoms are due to compression of vertebral artery (dizziness).

1. Prasaranyadi kashayam tablet 2 -0-2 before food. 2. Yogaraja guggulu 1-0-1 after food. 3. Dhanwantaram tailam + maharaja prasarani tailam for external application ( massage entire neck and overall hands ). - remove the oil by warm water 4. Avipathy choornam 1 tsp with warm water at night.

Dear Ravi ji Namaste Thank you for sharing your concerns with me. I can understand how difficult and frustrating it must be to live with such pain and discomfort for so long Neck and shoulder pain lasting over years along with dizziness numbness in hands and legs and difficulty in sitting or walking, can point towards a chronic condition like cervical spondylitis or related spinal nerve compression especially at the neck level From an ayurvedic perspective, this condition may be linked to vata dosha vitiate on , especially in the Asthi bones and majja dhatus.long standing vata imbalance can lead to degeneration stiffness pain numbness and poor circulation Now , regarding your concern about the heart the symptoms you have described do not primarily suggest a heart condition, but since dizziness and numbness can sometimes be linked with circulatory issues or blood pressure imbalance I would recommend getting basic cardiac tests just to rule out any underlying issue and bring peace of mind Avoid-Excessive intake of dry or spicy food, fasting, poor poster, prolong screen use or driving Over use of neck muscles, especially Stress, anxiety, and lack of sleep Ageing leading to natural predominance and degeneration Next steps ( avoiding triggers) Avoid cold exposure, excessive Screen Time, poor posture, and late night sleeping cut down on dry heavy to digest food Based on your symptoms, classical herbs, such as Dashamoola kwath/-1 teaspoon in 400 ML of water boil until it remains hundred ML and filter and drink twice daily on empty stomach Trayodashang guggulu - Peedantak vati- One tablet each twice daily after food with water Mahanarayana taila-local application- gentle massage over the neck area Can try Panchkarma therapy if nearby centres are available, which will be very beneficial Include warm nourishing vata pacify diet Do regular walking Pranayam meditation Gentle neck exercises and yoga postures Regular sleep and stress management Ayurveda treats from the root cause so it takes some time, I suggest you to take this medicine for at least three months to see a positive changes Please don’t worry with the right approach and care. This can be managed under your health can be restored.

Based on the symptoms you’ve mentioned, it is possible that cervical spondylosis might be a contributing factor. This condition, which is related to the degeneration of the cervical spine, can indeed lead to neck and shoulder pain, numbness in the extremities, dizziness, and issues with balance or coordination. However, these symptoms can also be linked to other conditions, including potential cardiac issues, so it would be wise to consult with a healthcare professional to rule out possible heart-related problems.

Now, focusing on the possible cervical spondylosis, Ayurveda views this as a vata-aggravated condition primarily affecting the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Here’s how you could possibly approach this with Ayurvedic principles:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Incorporate warm, nourishing foods that help balance vata dosha, such as cooked grains, root vegetables like sweet potatoes and carrots, and healthy fats like ghee or sesame oil. Avoid cold, raw, and dry foods.

2. Herbal Support: Consider using herbs like Ashwagandha and Guggulu which have been traditionally used to support musculoskeletal health. Boswellia (Shallaki) might be helpful as well for reducing inflamation. But make sure to consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner before taking any herbs.

3. Dinacharya (Daily Routine): Try establishing a consistent daily routine. Prioritize restful sleep, gentle yoga stretches, and pranayama techniques, especially those focusing on the neck and upper spine area - but avoid any movement that causes pain.

4. Sneha Therapy: Abhyanga, or self-massage with warm sesame oil, can help soothe vata imbalance. It works best when done daily or a few times a week before a warm shower.

5. Stress Management: Given your symptoms of dizziness and numbness, balancing your mental state is essential. Meditation and mindfulness practices can help establish calmness and support overall healing.

It is important to address these symptoms holistically, and for your safety, keep coordinating with healthcare professionals to monitor any serious underlying issues, such as heart conditions which need immediate attention. Ensure that any therapies incorporated into your regimen are safe and suitable for your specific condition.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Nayan Wale
I am working in medical field for total 7 years, out of which around 4 years was in hospital setup and 3 years in clinic practice. Hospital work gave me strong base, long duty hours, different type of cases, emergencies sometimes, and learning under pressure. Clinic work is different, slower but deeper, where I sit with patients, listen more, explain things again n again, and follow them over time. In hospital I handled day to day OPD cases, routine management, and also assisted seniors when things got complicated. That phase shaped my clinical thinking a lot, even now I sometimes catch myself thinking like hospital mode when a case looks serious. Clinic practice on the other hand taught me patience. Patients come with chronic issues, expectations, doubts, sometimes fear, and I had to adjust my approach accordingly. I focus on practical treatment planning, not just diagnosis on paper. Some days I feel I should have more time with each patient, but I try to balance it. My experience across hospital and clinic helps me understand both acute care and long term disease management. I still keep learning everyday, reading, observing patterns, correcting myself when needed, because medicine never stays same for long, and neither should the doctor.

I am a doctor with about 07 years of experience working in Ayurveda ENT OPD, along with research and teaching responsibilities, and this mix has shaped how I look at patient care and learning both. My day to day work mainly focus on diagnosing and managing ENT-related conditions through Ayurvedic principles, and honestly the OPD work keeps me grounded because real patients always teach more than books do. I am involved in clinical research related to Ayurveda ENT, trying to understand what actually works in practice and where we still need clarity, sometimes the results are slow and that can be frustrating but it matters. Alongside this, I am also engaged in teaching, guiding students and young doctors, which forces me to stay updated and question my own understanding again and again. Teaching is not always smooth, some concepts take time to explain properly and I still rethink my methods. My approach with patients is simple and practical, I try to listen carefully, explain things in a clear way, and choose treatments that are realistic to follow. I belive Ayurveda ENT care works best when treatment plans are individualized, not copied from a textbook. Over the years, experince in OPD, research, and classroom has slowly come together, though I know learning never really stop!! I am still curious, still cautious, and still committed to improving how I treat ENT conditions through Ayurveda, even when answers are not very straight forward.

Dr. Suraj Amber
I am practicing Ayurveda for about 8 years now, feels strange saying that because honestly the learning never stops. My work is all about finding balance in the body, not in some abstract way, but literally working with each person’s unique prakriti and the vikriti they’re dealing with at that moment. I follow the classical principles — herbal formulations, Panchakarma therapies, diet corrections, lifestyle tweaks — but nothing is “one size fits all”. Each treatment plan is shaped by the person infront of me, their health history, and the small details you only catch when you really listen. Over time I’ve worked with people dealing with digestion troubles, joint pains, hormonal shifts, stress-related health dips, and even stubborn chronic stuff that didn’t respond much to other methods. My approach is to go for the root cause first, because treating just the symptoms feels like putting tape over a crack... it hides it for a while but doesn’t fix it. That’s also why I focus on prevention — if you stop the imbalance before it grows, you save a lot of pain later. I keep my learning alive by reading classical Ayurvedic texts and joining continuing education whenever I can fit it in (sometimes late nights with too much chai). And I try to pass that clarity on to patients, explaining why a certain herb or therapy is chosen, what changes they might notice, and how they can keep supporting themselves after treatment ends. For me, this is more than just work. It’s a way of living… making choices every day that keep the mind, body, and emotions in some kind of harmony. My goal is still the same as day one — offer care that’s authentic, safe, and actually works for the long run, while making sure the person feels heard and understood through the whole process.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Haresh Vavadiya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor currently practicing at Ayushakti Ayurveda—which honestly feels more like a learning ecosystem than just a clinic. Being here has changed the way I look at chronic conditions. You don’t just treat the label—you go after the cause, layer by layer, and that takes patience, structure, and real connection with the person sitting in front of you. Ayushakti has been around 33+ years, with global reach and seriously refined clinical systems. That means I get to work with protocols that are both deeply rooted in traditional Ayurveda and also super practical for today’s world. Whether I’m managing arthritis, asthma, skin issues like eczema or psoriasis, hormone trouble, gut problems, or stress overload—my first step is always a deep analysis. Prakriti, doshas, ahar-vihar, past treatments—everything gets mapped out. Once I’ve got that picture clear, I create a plan using herbal medicines, detox programs (especially Panchakarma), Marma therapy if needed, and definitely food and routine corrections. But nothing’s random. Each piece is chosen for *that* person. And I don’t just prescribe—I explain. Because when someone knows *why* they’re doing a certain thing, they stick with it longer, and the results hold. One thing I’ve learned while working here is how powerful Ayurved can be when it's structured right. At Ayushakti, that structure exists. It helps me treat confidently and track results properly. Whether I’m working with a first-time visitor or a patient who’s been dealing with the same thing for 10 years, my goal stays the same—help their system return to a natural, sustainable state of balance. What I really enjoy is seeing how people’s mindset changes once they start to feel better. When they stop depending on just temporary relief and start building their health from within—that’s when the real shift happens. And being part of that shift? That’s why I do this.

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Harsh Khandelwal
I am a fresher doctor stepping into practice with lot of curiosity and some nervousness too if i’m honest. My training gave me a foundation in Ayurveda principles, where health is not just the absence of illness but a balance between doshas, agni, dhatu & mind. I might not carry decades of expereince yet, but I hold patience and dedication which sometimes matter more than numbers. During study years I worked through cases of common disorders, watching how small changes in ahara-vihara and simple herbal formulations could transform patient comfort. It showed me that ayurveda is not about complicate plans but about restoring rhythm of body. I keep strong interest in musculoskeletal disorders like joint pain, stiffness, backache, where lifestyle corrections plus treatments like abhyanga, swedana and panchakarma therapies show amazing recovery. Also conditions of women health—PCOD, infertility, menstrual irregularities—are areas I want to focus deeply, as these affect daily living so much yet often stay under-discussed. I also learned about auto-immune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, aamavata, psoriatic arthritis, how tricky they are, and I feel motivated to study and treat them further with careful, step by step methods. As a fresher, I know my journey just starting. I am still shaping my skills, still questioning which approach work best, sometimes even re-checking basic things twice. But I believe this stage is also strength, because I come with open mind, no rigid habits, and eagerness to listen. I do not rush into decisions, rather I take time to observe each case, to connect symptoms with underlying dosha imbalance. I feel each patient teach something new and every treatment outcome is like a page added in my learning. I may not be perfect yet, but I am commited to honesty in my care, keeping focus on natural healing, preventive health, and respecting both modern diagnostics and traditional ayurveda wisdom. For me it is about building trust slowly, showing patients that even a fresher can hold responsibility with sincerity, and growing together step by step.

Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.
