HELLO YOGESH KUMAR,
AGE- 53
CONDITION- varicose veins( bilateral, clustered, swollen, no pain)
DURATION- 5 years
CHRONIC ILLNESS- diabetes(important for circulation and wound healing)
PREFERANCE- no surgery
Varicose veins are primarily due to-
-vata vyadhi(abnormal movement and stagnation of vata)
-aggravation of Rakta dhatu and Meda dhatu
- Dhamani pratichaya(thickening or bulging of veins due to improper flow and waste accumulation)
In Diabetes, Madhumeha leads to Ojas depletion weakened circulation, nerve implantation, nerve impairment and slower wound healing .
TREATMENT GOAL
-reduce venous congestion and swelling
- strengthen vein walls
- balance vata (main culprit in varicose veins), while supporting pitta(inflammation) and kapha(stagnation)
-protect skin and nerves compromised by diabetes.
INTERNALLY START WITH
1) KAISHOR GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice daily after meals
= Anti inflammatory, blood purifier
2) PUNARNAVA MANDORR- 2 tabs twice daily after meals
=reduces edema, improves circulation
3) SARIVADYASAVA- 15 ml with equal water after meals
= pitta-vata balance, blood detox
4) CHANDRAPRABHA VATI- 2 tabs twice daily after meals
= diabetic support, urinary clearance, venous strength
5) MANJISTHADI KASHAYA- 20 ml with water twice daily before meals
=improves microcirculation, venous strength
6) TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water
=mild detox, supports bowel function
EXTERNAL TREATMENT
1) SAHACHARADI TAILA= strengthen nerves and veins, reduces pain and stiffness
2) NIRGUNDI TAILA= anti-inflammatory, relieves swelling
3) MAHANARAYAN TAILA= deep tissue nourishment, relaxes veins
4) KUMARI TAILA= skin rejuvination, prevents ulcers
= warm oil slighlty
-massage gently upward on legs from feet to thing , avoiding heavy pressure
- let it absorb for 20-30 minutes
-wash off with warm water
avoid on open ulcers or infected skin. Do not use very hot oil
IF FEASIBLE GO FOR PANCHAKARMA AS IT IS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE IN YOUR CASE
- LEECH THERAPY
- BLOOD LETTING
- MEDICATED ENEMA
YOGA AND ASANA
yoga helps improve blood return, relieve venous stasis, and strengthen leg muscles
ASANAS
-Viparita karani(legs up the wall)- 10-15 mins/day
-Tadasana= improves balance, strength
-Pawanmuktasana= enhances abdominal and venous circulation
-Setu bandhasana= elevates legs and reduce venous pooling
-Paschimottanasana= helps in compression and blood movement
Avoid standing poses for long durations. Do not hold poses too long if swelling increases
DIET TO BE FOLLOWED
INCLUDE
-warm, light meals= reduces kapha and vata
- garlic, turmeric, ginger= natural blood thinners
-bottle gourd, ridge gourd, bitter gourd= light on digestion, support sugar control
-green gram, barley, red rice= light grains, good fiber
-amla= rejuvinator, antioxidant
-triphala= gut detox, and helps with digestion
- buttermilk(diluted, spiced)= improves digestion and metabolism
AVOID
-deep fried, sour, fermented food= aggravates pitta, leads to inflammation
-cold drinks, ice cream, curd at night= triggers kapha and congestion
- long fasting or heavy meals= disturbs vata
- constipation= leads to increased abdominal pressure, worsens varicosity
SOME SYMPTOMS WHICH YOU SHOULD NOT IGNORE
-watch for sudden pain, ulcers, bleeding or dark skin patches
-swelling or color change may indicate venous insufficiency or diabetic complications
-if symptoms worsen, vascular evaluation or minimally invasive treatment may be needed-e.g sclerotherapy or laser ablation
DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU

Varicose veins occur when valves in your veins become weak. Then blood will accumulate there and vein swells. Clusters of bulging veins, swelling, heaviness and may see skin colour changes.
In ayurveda these can be correlated with siraja granthi. It is due to the vitiation of vata and rakta.
Along with medication some exercises also will improve your condition.
1. Sahacharabaladi kashayam (Kottakkal) 15 ml + 45 ml lukewarm water twice daily before food.
2. Kaisora guggulu 1-0-1 with kashayam.
3. Triphala choornam 1 tsp with warm water at night.
4. Sahacharadi tailam for external application. Apply oil from foot to hip area.
⚡ Avoid sitting and standing for long hours, always take some rest in between activities.
⚡ Wear compression stockings.
☘️ Elevate legs above heart level for 15- 20 minutes. You can do this before going to bed.
☘️ Raise your legs without bending knee for 10 times.
🚶Walk 30 minutes daily, it will improve blood circulation.
☘️ Sit and move your ankles up and down.
☘️ Stand straight and lift heels up and return to floor.
Stay calm and healthy. Drink more water.

For managing varicose veins with Ayurveda, it focuses on balancing doshas and improving circulation. Since you mention swelling without pain, the goal will be to reduce inflammation, strengthen veins, and boost your vascular health. One key to addressing varicose veins is understanding your Agni, or digestive fire, which plays a crucial role in overall health.
Start by assessing your diet. Favor warm, cooked foods over cold, raw options to support digestive fire. Incorporate anti-inflammatory spices such as turmeric and ginger. Both of these can be added to teas or meals. Avoid heavy, greasy, or processed foods as they can exacerbate symptoms. Hydration is critical, aim for warm rather than cold beverages.
Herbs like horse chestnut (Ashvagandha) have been traditionally used to support venous integrity. Consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner to find the proper dosage suitable for your constitution. You can consider Triphala for improving digestion and encouraging detoxification.
Pranayama, particularly gentle breathing exercises like Anuloma Viloma, can improve blood circulation. Postures in yoga can help too; legs-up-the-wall pose (Viparita Karani) facilitates venous return and reduces swelling by letting gravity work in favor of circulation. Practice these daily.
Topical treatments include gentle massage using Ayurvedic oils such as sesame or mustard oil. Guduchi and guggulu, both of which are revered for aiding in circulation, might be infused in these oils—a suggested consultation with an expert might be needed.
Lifestyle changes may also help reduce strain on your legs. Avoid standing or sitting for long durations without movement, elevate feet periodically to aid in blood flow, and consider wearing compression garments for support.
However, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional if symptoms get worse, or if there are other changes such as pain or color changes, requiring immediate attention. While Ayurvedic methods can support vascular health, some forms of varicose veins require close monitoring.

NAMASTE YOGESH JI,
Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins that are most commonly seen in the legs due to poor circulation and valve function in the veins. Since you've been dealing with this for 5 years and also have diabetes careful management is important.
Ayurveda can help reduce symptoms and progression, but complete cure (as in removal of veins) without surgery is usually not possible.
In Ayurveda, varicose veins are generally linked to a vitiation of vata dosha, specifically apana vata, along with rakta dhatu dushti(impairment of blood tissue). the veins lose their elasticity and become enlarged due to poor blood circulation and aggravated vata.
INTERNALLY START WITH
MORNING(EMPTY STOMACH)
- RASONADI KASHAYA- 20 ml with warm water
= balances. vata kapha, strengthens blood vessels, excellent for improving circulation
-GOTU KOLA CAPSULE- 1 cap with lukewarm water
= strengthens vein walls, promotes circulation, anti-inflammatory
-MANJISTHA CAPSULE- 1 cap with warm water
= blood purifier, helps reduce vein discolouration and swelling
* AFTER BREAKFAST
-PUNARNAVADI GUGGULU- 2 tabs with warm water
= reduces water retention and swelling, supports circulation
-KAISHOR GUGGULU- 2 tabs with warm water
=blood purifier, anti inflammatory, reduces swelling in veins
*EVENING(30 MIN BEFORE DINNER)
-MAHAMANJISTHADI KASHAYA- 20 ml with warm water before dinner
= deep blood purifier , ideal in long standing venous disorders
-HARIDRA CAPSULE- 1 cap with warm water
= anti inflammatory , reduces pigmentation and venous ulcers
*AFTER DINNER
-TRIPHALA GUGGULU- 2 tabs with warm water
= mild detox, supports bowel health, improves venous tone
-SAPTAVIMSHATI GUGGULU- 1 tab with warm water
= indicated in chronic wounds, ulcers, varicose ulcers
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS
-SAHACHARADI TAILA OR NIRGUNDI TAILA= warm slightly , apply gently upward strokes on varicose veins, leave for 30-60 min, then wash off with lukewarm water. use once daily before bath
AVOID deep pressure massage on veins
PANCHAKARMA ADVISED FOR BETTER AND EARLY RELIEF
-RAKTAMOKSHANA
-VIRECHANA
-MASSAE
-BASTI
DIET RECOMMENDATIONS
-include= warm, lightly spiced, cooked foods, ghee, ginger, garlic
-avoid= cold, dry foods, fried foods, sour curd, fermented food
-drink warm water infused with cumin, or coriander
-control blood sugar strictly, as uncontrolled diabetes worsen circulation.
LIFESTYLE AND YOGA
-avoid prolonged standing and sitting
-elevate legs while sleeping or resting
-wear compression stockings
-leg movements every 30 mins if sedentary
YOGA ASANA
-viparita karani
-tadasana
-pawanmuktasana
-paschimottanasana
PRANAYAM like anulom vilom and bhramari are helpful to improve circulation and reduce oxidative stress.
While Ayurveda may not completely remove the varicose veins, it can effectively reduce symptoms like swelling, prevent complications and improve vein health over time without surgery.
