HELLO SUNIL,
-unilateral one sided throat pain -pain while swallowing -acid reflux(occasional) -chronic acidity -neck discomfort
Thes symptoms suggest a combined issue of gastroesophageal reflux and localised throat inflammation that might be affecting one side of the pharynx/tonsil region. The neck pain might be referred pain due to inflamed lymph nodes, muscular tension or reflux induced irritation
DOSHA INVLOLVEMENT -PITTA=excess heat and acid prooduction -VATA= dryness, nerve pain, discomfort during swallowing
PROBABLE AYURVEDIC DIAGNOSIS
-URDHVA AMLAPITTA- acid reflux with upward movement=causing throat/voice box irritation
-KANTHASHOOLA- throat pain= may involve tonsil,phrynx, or larynx
-GRIVASHOOLA- neck pain= likely muscle tension or lymph nodes swellling
-AGNIMANDYA- weak digestion= leading to acid accumulation
#TREATMENT PLAN FOR 4-6 WEEKS
1)KAMDUDHARAS(PLAIN)- 125 mg after meals with honey or cold water= reduces pitta, burning sensation
2)SOOTSEKHAR RAS- 125 mg before meals with warm water= balances pitta-bata and acid control
3)SITOPALADI CHURNA+YASTIMADHU CHURNA(1:1 RATIO)- 1 tsp twice a day with honey= demulcent, anti-inflammatory for throat
4)AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA- 1tsp at bedtime with warm water= corrects amlapitta, support digestion
5)KANCHANAR GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice a day aftermeals= reduces glandular swelling, balance kapha
#EXTERNAL THERAPY
1)NASYA- use Anutaila 2 drops instill in each nostril after warm steam in the morning -helps relieve neck stiffness, throat congestion and support sinus and throat region
2)NECK MASSAGE-mahanarayan Taila massage on neck and upper back before bath reduces vata based muscle stiffness, improves circulation
DIET PLAN
FOODS TO INCLUDE- -warm water with fennel seeds= alkaline, soothes pitta -boiled rice with ghee= easy to digest -coconut water in morning= alkalising pitta soothing -lauki,tinda,ashgourd= light on stomach -soaked raisins, dates= nourish without increasing acid
FOOD TO AVOID -curd especially at night= increases kapha and throat congestion -pickles, fermented food= pitta aggravating -tea,coffee= irritate stomach and throat -fried,spicy,sour chutney= trigger acid reflux -bakery foods- block digestion, aggravate reflux
LIFESTYLE RECOMMENDATIONS -early dinner by 7:30 pm, avoid night time acid reflux -sleep with slightly elevated head, prevents acid from reaching throat -warm saline+turmeric gargles-2 times/week- antiseptic, soothes throat -avoid talking loudly or overusing voice- rest to inflamed vocal cords/throat -morning walk+pranayam(bhramari, anulom vilom)- reduces stress , improves circulation

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

When experiencing one-sided throat pain along with swallowing difficulties and acidity issues, these symptoms may relate to imbalances in the body’s natural elements and doshas. From an Ayurvedic perspective, it’s helpful to focus on balancing the Pitta dosha, as it’s often associated with heat and acidity in the body. The first step in addressing these concerns is moderating your diet. Eating a Pitta-pacifying diet can help alleviate symptoms. Favor cool foods and avoid spicy, acidic, and fried items. Incorporate foods like warm milk (make sure you are not lactose intolerant), cucumber, coconut water, and whole grains.
Herbal remedies can provide significant relief as well. Try soothing herbs like licorice root, which is known to help with throat pain and acid control. You can boil licorice in water, let it cool a bit, and sip like a tea. Fennel seeds can also help; chewing them after meals can ease digestion and reduce acidity.
In terms of lifestyle, strive to maintain a regular routine. Digestive issues often worsen with irregular patterns in sleep, diet, and stress. Practice deep breathing or pranayama in the morning - this can be calming and also supportive for digestive health.
Another great recommendation is gargling with warm water mixed with a pinch of turmeric and salt, to soothe your throat. Do this twice a day for best results. Be mindful, hydration is key, so make sure you’re drinking enough water throughout the day; this helps balance your body’s internal heat.
Yoga and gentle exercices can also improve digestion and reduce stress levels. Postures like “Trikonasana” (Triangle Pose) can support digestion, while “Bhujangasana” (Cobra Pose) is excellent for reducing acidity. Ensure you adopt these postures under guidance if you’re unfamiliar with them.
Keep a diary of your symptoms—sometimes it helps to see what aggravates or eases your discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it’s crucial to consult with a healthcare professional without delay. This is not something to ignore for too long as it might need more immediate medical attention. Remember, addressing both dietary and lifestyle factors holistically can create positive shifts in your health.
