It's common for the skin inside the mouth, like the retromolar trigone area, to become affected by tobacco consumption. This could potentially lead to various oral issues, so it's good that you're seeking a solution. First off, addressing your mother's tobacco addiction requires a holistic approach. Ayurveda suggests working on mind-body harmony to curb addictions. Tobacco creates a kind of imbalance in the doshas, primarily affecting Vata and Kapha. One must focus on balancing these doshas. Here are some steps that might help: Encourage her to chew on a mixture of licorice root (Mulethi) and fennel seeds. Licorice can help soothe irritations, while fennel helps in reducing cravings. Drinking an herbal tea made from Tulsi (Holy Basil) leaves, ginger, and cinnamon daily can be beneficial. Tulsi specifically detoxifies and purifies the body. An easily applicable method is oil pulling with sesame or coconut oil. Tell her to swish about a tablespoon of oil in her mouth on an empty stomach for 10-15 minutes daily. It aids in detoxification and oral health improvement. Conduct regular Pranayama (breathing exercises) like Anulom Vilom or Kapalbhati. These exercises help in reducing cravings by calming the mind and balancing the body's energies. For the existing retromolar trigone issue, applying a pinch of turmeric powder mixed with honey on the affected area can reduce irritation and promote healing due to turmeric’s anti-inflammatory properties. A simple triphala concoction, in warm water, especially at night might help in aiding detoxification and maintaining oral hygiene. It's important she stays hydrated, as water helps flush out toxins. Encouraging her to maintain a balanced diet consisting of fresh fruits, leafy greens, and whole grains will promote her overall well-being. Avoid excessively spicy or sour foods which could further irritate mouth lesions. If the condition of her oral health worsens or doesn't improve, do seek professional medical advice to rule out any serious conditions. Always remember, overcoming addiction isn’t easy. Support and encouragement from family can play crucial roles. Be patient with her progress.
