Amiya ji, your symptoms like tongue discolouration cheek, bleeding, pain, and swollen. Lymph nodes are serious and linked to long-term tobacco and alcohol use you must quit both immediately. Do test like oral biopsy after consulting either oncologist or ENT surgeon. Meanwhile, FNAC of lymph node is also required to rule out the serious disease, but it should be done after consultation either from oncologist or ENT surgeon do not delay. Everyone is precious to consultation and once confirm How’s your mouth opening.?? Are you able to take normal diet?? Since how long you’re suffering from this? Meanwhile, avoid spicy food, stay calm, and as soon as possible, consult and start the treatment, good luck

Immediately stop any addiction Take amla juice 10ml+ Aloe vera juice 10ml twice daily after food with water Take tablet Liv-52 1-0-1 after food with water Follow up after 1 month

Given the symptoms you have mentioned, especially considering your history of tobacco and alcohol use, it is very important to see a medical professional as soon as possible. The enlargement of lymph nodes, tongue discoloration, cheek bleeding, and ear pain are concerning symptoms that require an urgent consultation with an oral surgeon or ENT specialist to rule out any serious conditions, including cancer. In the meantime, adopting some supportive Ayurvedic practices can help you manage the symptoms while you seek professional evaluation. Since tobacco and alcohol can worsen Pitta dosha, try to reduce Pitta-aggravating factors in your diet. Avoid spicy, fried, and fermented foods, as well as caffeine and red meat, which can heat up the body further. Instead, consume cooling foods like cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens to help balance Pitta. Drink coconut water; it’s known for its cooling and soothing properties. In Ayurveda, the digestive fire or Agni is crucial for overall health. Strengthening your Agni can support your body’s natural healing processes. Chew a small piece of fresh ginger with a dash of rock salt about half an hour before meals to kindle digestive fire without overheating your system. For the sore and bleeding mouth, try an Ayurvedic practice of oil pulling. Swish a tablespoon of organic sesame or coconut oil in your mouth for about 10-15 minutes and then spit it out. It's traditionally believed to draw out toxins and help maintain oral health. Do this daily if possible. Avoid smoking and alcohol completely; they deplete the Ojas (vital energy), weakening the immune system and increasing inflammation and irritation in the body. After professional diagnosis, a tailored Panchakarma detox program could be of benefit, but only under the guidance of a certified Ayurvedic practitioner. Keep stress management as a priority; meditation and deep breathing exercises can help balance the mind and body, reducing stress-related Pitta aggravation. Don’t delay in seeking medical attention—it's crucial to address these symptoms promptly with a healthcare provider.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I’m Dr. Hemanshu, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic Surgery), with a focused interest in para-surgical interventions such as Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma. My academic and clinical journey is rooted in classical Ayurvedic surgical wisdom, complemented by a modern understanding of patient care and evidence-based approaches. With hands-on training and experience in managing chronic pain conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other ano-rectal conditions, I provide treatments that emphasize both relief and long-term wellness. I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.
