Thank you, George, for clearly explaining your condition. I can understand how frustrating and uncomfortable it must be to deal with such a reaction from so many common foods a year. The digestive system becomes more sensitive and when this is combined with long-term imbalances in diet or past lifestyle habits, it’s start showing up in multiple ways, food intolerance, bloating, itching, and skin darkening. from what you have shared, it is very clear that your body is struggling to properly process and eliminate certain types of food, especially heavy oily or Farman table. Once the signs like bloating, gas at night, skin, hitching and burning sensation in thecolon area, suggest that your digestive fire has been become irregular and sensitive. This has likely led to buildup. Talk digested waste in the body which is now irritating, both your skin and internal organs According to Ayurveda digestion is the foundation of health. When digestion is not balanced. It doesn’t lead to gas or bloating. It affects the blood skin joints and Dwan mind. Let’s start by making sense of your symptoms. You mentioned that carbohydrates, pulses, fried and fatty foods and most fruits are triggering floating and stomach upset. These are all either Farman table or heavy to digest items as we ate the ability of the gut to break down such foods naturally declined, especially if digestion is weak or if there is a chronic inflammation in the intestine. When food is not properly digested, it stays in the gut longer for months produces gas and releases irritants that affect both the cut lining and the skin. This also causes toxins to enter the blood stream which can lead to allergic reactions, itching or even skin, darkening and thickening as you mentioned around the Car area, the calf skin darkening could also be related to Poor circulation or Venus information, which again connects to internal heat and dryness overtime burning in the colon at night,along with gas formation shows that the accumulated gas is not only irritating your sleep but also affecting the sensitive mucosa of your rectal area

Now coming to your solutions first and four, most importantly, you will need to completely reset your digestion for at least 3 to 4 weeks. Stick to a very simple and soft that this means only warm, freshly cooked food, preferably in semi solid or well cooked form. Avoid all fruits, Raw salads fried items, packet, snacks, and anything that comes from the fridge. Start your day with warm water, even better if boiled and cold slightly. you may add a pinch of dry ginger or fennel seeds in the boiling water sip this water throughout the day instead of plain water for breakfast have soft rice porridge. aur a lightly cooked moong dal Khichdi with a pinch of cumin avoid bread, biscuits, milk, Aunty in the morning mid morning, if you’re hungry, you can take a few soaked almonds that have been peeled or some cooked apple or beer, depending upon what you tolerate for lunch, eat only well cooked rice or soft wheat Pulka with one vegetable and millet. Dal avoid rajma Channa or A Daal don’t eat curd or milk You can have butter milk in a diluted form with pinch of rocks, salt, and roasted cumin powder. If you want something so you can use a little lemon juice on food just before eating dinner. Should be early around sunset or before 8 PM and very light Khichdi with a teaspoon of ghee and boiled vegetables is ideal

Ghee is important in your case because it helps reduce internal dryness and soda. The lining. It also improves skin moisture from the inside. Make sure to use pure home-made or trusted sources of Desi Koogi in small amounts award, mustard oil or refined oils for now cook with a little coldpressed, coconut or sesame oil, add spices like cumin, coriander, and fennel, two year food to help digestion, but stay away from strong spices like red chilli or Garam Masala

No regarding your skin symptoms, apply coconut oil, or castor oil mixed with little turmeric to the calves once a day, this can open the skin and reduce inflammation. If the hitching is too much. You take a bath with water boiled with Neem leaves and cool to worm temperature. Do not use harsh soaps. Use mild herbal soap just gram flour with turmeric while bathing.

For your digestion and gas problem in mild herbal combination of dried ginger fennel, and Ajwain equal parts can be taken as a pinch before or after meals, if gas and burning or too strong, take a little warm water with a pinch of rock salt and cumin boiled in it before lunch for night, taking half teaspoon of cow ghee in warm water before sleep, help reduce colon irritation and shooters gas buildup, it also supports BOWEL health and skin healing over time

When it comes to lifestyle, avoid sleeping in daytime and avoid heavy dinner late at night. Go for short, slow walk after meals. It will help your direction and circulation, especially to your legs if possible, raise your legs slightly when lying down by placing a pillow under the CALVES, this will help with the skin darkening and circulation.

No talking about herbal internal support, depending upon your strength and digestion, a gentle combination of harps that so the gut lining reduce internal heat and helps in clearing toxins, maybe useful Giloyghan vati -one tablet twice daily after food with warm water Amlaki rasayana-teaspoon with warm water daily once Avipattikara churna-1/2 with water before meals are very beneficial. In your case, strong detox or progression should be avoided. Instead, you need to slow clearing the toxin through light and calming of internal heat.

Sleep is very important. You said gas formation at night is affecting sleep. That happens when the digestion is incomplete and mentation continuous even after lying down. So please finish dinner before 7 PM. Take a short walk and drink a cup of warm water with a pinch of fennel before Sleep try to avoid lying down immediately after eating.

Avoid watching TV later at night, if your mind is calm and die is quite sleepy improve. This will also help produce information and skin reactions.

Healing at your age is possible, but it takes patience and consistent effort. You do not need complicated diets or harsh medicines. All your symptoms are linked to a common cause.-30 sensitive digestion, internal heat and talks in buildup if you take care of this with one routine and correct, you will start seeing improvement, not only your stomach but also in the skin

Take this steps for at least a month and then says your symptoms. If the response is good. Then further herbal support and deep cleansing can be done under observation. You’re not alone and you’re not helpless. Your body is asking for support teenage clear way and Ayurveda the tool to help you respond. Naturally, please keep faith in process and take one day at a time. I am here if you need more guidance, thank you.

HELLO GEORGE THOMAS,

AT THE AGE OF 72, YOUR BODY IS NATURALLY EXPERIENCING A REDUCTION IN DIGESTIVE CAPACITY,WHICH IN AYURVEDA IS DESCRIBED AS THE WEAKENING OF “AGNI”(DIGESTIVE FIRE).

THIS WEAKENED AGNI IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF “AMA” FORMATION- PARTIALLY DIGESTED, TOXIC RESIDUES THAT ACCUMULATE IN THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT AND TISSUES, LEADING TO SYMPTOMS SUCH AS BLOATING, GAS, BURNING IN THE COLON, SKIN ITCHING AND FOOD INTOLERANCE.

THE FACT THAT YOU ARE REACTING NEGATIVELY TO COMMON FOOD GROUPS LIKE CARBOHYDRATES, PULSES,FATTY FOODS, AND FRUITS SUGGESTS THAT YOUR GUT LINING IS INFLAMED AND HYPERSENSITIVE.

AYURVEDA RECOGNIZES THIS STATE AS A MIX OF VATA AND PITTA IMBALANCE,WHEREIN THE ERRATIC NATURE OF VATA(GAS, BLOATING, DISTURBED SLEEP,DRYNESS)COMBINES WITH THE SHARP, PENETRATING QUALITY OF PITTA(BURNING SENSATION, SKIN INFLAMMATION, FOOD REACTIONS).

OVERTIME,THIS CHRONIC IMBALANCE HAS LIKELY CAUSED RAKTA DUSTI(IMPURITIES OF BLOOD), LEADING TO THE DARK, THICKENED PATCHES ON YOUR CALF SKIN, WHICH ARE SIGNS OF LONG-STANDING ALLERGIC REACTION AND DISTURBED METABOLIC WASTE PROCESSING.

YOUR CONDITION IS NOOT JUST A SURFACE-LEVEL DIGESTION PROBLEM BUT A DEEPER SYSTEMATIC IMABALNCE THT REQUIRES MULTI-LEVEL HEALING. THE GAS FORMATION ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT,POINTS TO A DISTURBED APANA VATA, THE SUBTYPE OF VATA RESPONSIBLE FOR LOWER ABDOMINAL FUNCTIONONG AND SLEEP REGULATION.WHEN APANA VATA IS BLOCKED OR DISTURBED DUE TO AMA AND PITTA AGGRAVATION, IT STARTS MOVING UPWARD WHICH CAUSES GAS,DISCOMFORT IN THE COLON, AND SLEEP ISSUES.

BURNING IN THE COLON AT NIGHT IS A CLASSIC SIGN OF PITTA ACCUMULATION IN THE LARGE INTESTINE, AGGRAVATED BY POOR DIGESTION, FRIED/OILY AND SUPPRESSED TOXINS.

FROM AN AYURVEDIC STAND POINT, THE ENTIRE GUT NEEDS TO BE DETOXIFIED, THE DIGESTIVE FIRE REKINDLED, AND THE PITTA-VATA BALANCE RESTORED TO ADDRESS BOTH THE INTERNAL DISCOMFORT AND EXTERNAL SKIN MANIFESTATION

SO TREATMENT IS TO AIM AT 1)REMOVE TOXINS AND IMPROVE DIGESTION 2)BALANCE PITTA AND VATA DOSHA 3)DETOXIFY AND PURIFY THE BLOOD 4)RESTORE GUT FUNCTION AND REGULARIZE BOWEL MOVEMENTS 5)REJUVINATE TISSUE AND STRENGTHEN IMMUNITY

Addressing food intolerances and allergic reactions through an Ayurvedic approach requires a holistic understanding of your individual constitution and imbalances. Your symptoms suggest a potential aggravation of the Pitta dosha, with signs such as skin itching, burning sensation, and digestive disturbances like bloating and gas.

First, let’s address the bloating and gas issues. Prioritize foods that are light and easy to digest, such as well-cooked grains like rice or quinoa, and steamed vegetables like zucchini and carrots. Avoid foods known to disturb your digestion like fried items, fats, and certain pulses you’re sensitive to.

To support your agni, or digestive fire, consider starting your meals with a small piece of fresh ginger sprinkled with lemon juice and a pinch of rock salt. This simple practice can help stimulate digestion. Drink warm water throughout the day to promote digestion and absorption while avoiding ice-cold drinks, which can further dampen your digestive fire.

For the itching and skin thickening, topical application of a soothing herbal paste made from sandalwood and neem, slightly moistened with rose water, can help. Apply this paste to the affected areas and leave it on for about 15-20 minutes before rinsing off with warm water. This blend helps to soothe inflammation and alleviate itching.

Incorporate cooling and calming practices in your routine, such as gentle yoga and meditation, to help balance Pitta and reduce overall stress. Avoid exposure to heat and make sure to wear cooling, breathable fabrics.

Since your symptoms also include a burning sensation in the colon, it would be beneficial to include fennel and coriander tea into your daily routine. These herbs are known for their cooling properties and can soothe the digestive system.

Please remember, If symptoms persist seem severe, or interfere with daily life, consider consulting a healthcare provider for tailored guidance. Your safety and well-being are important, and timely professional advice can prevent further complications.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. 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.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

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. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

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. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.
