Testicular pain returned after lifting something heavy scared it might be serious again - #24724

Pranav

Hi, im a healthy 19YO Back in April 2024, I started having dull, aching pain in my left testicle around 5 to 6 out of 10 in intensity. I saw a urologist, got multiple tests done including ultrasound and urine analysis, but everything came back normal. Nothing serious was found. But the pain was chronic. Then in December 2024, after sitting for 3–4 hours during the day without much movement, I woke up that night with sudden, excruciating pain. It was terrifying, I genuinely thought it might be testicular torsion. I rushed to the ER, but again, all tests and scans were normal. After that, I started doing some light pelvic floor exercises (though not consistently), and eventually, by January 2025, the pain gradually faded. From January till June 2025, I was basically pain-free. But now just a week ago I lifted something heavy very quickly and awkwardly, and since then the pain has come back. It’s not constant or sharp, and there’s no swelling or redness, but it’s there mostly on the left, though sometimes I feel it on the right too, or even both sides. The pain moves around but stays around a 3/4 out of 10. More annoying than debilitating, but enough to worry me. I’ve started doing pelvic floor work again, but this time it doesn’t seem to be helping much. I’m getting scared, especially because my final exams are in two months. please help me understand what’s going on. Thanks :)

Your situation seems quite challenging, especially with exams coming up. Based on what you’ve described, it could be possible that lifting something heavy strained your pelvic area, which might have aggravated the underlying issue related to the muscles or nerves. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this might relate to a vata imbalance, often associated with pain, movement, and nerve-related issues.

Let’s explore some practical steps you can take:

Firstly, ensure your digestive fire or agni is balanced, as it’s crucial for overall health. Incorporate warm, cooked, easy-to-digest foods into your diet. Avoid foods that are cold, raw, or difficult to digest, as they may aggravate vata. Ginger and cumin in your meals might aid digestion and reduce bloating.

Hydration plays a role. Drink warm or room temperature water throughout the day to help maintain balance in the body. Ginger tea could also offer additional soothing properties.

In terms of lifestyle, try incorporating a daily routine of gentle yoga and pranayama (breathing exercises), which can help relax and balance the body. Poses like Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclined Bound Angle Pose) may be beneficial.

For topical relief, consider applying warm sesame oil to the lower abdomen and around the testicular area, followed by a warm compress. This can provide comfort and soothe vata imbalances.

Despite these measures, it’s crucial to be cautious and prioritize your health. Avoid lifting heavy objects and engaging in activities that may worsen your symptoms. If the pain persists, consult with a healthcare professional—particularly if there are changes in intensity or other concerning symptoms.

Remember, while Ayurveda can offer support, urgent situations should always be addressed promptly by medical professionals. Your well-being is most important, and managing stress and staying grounded will aid not just the body, but the mind, too, especially as exams approach.

Thank you for sharing based on your history it sounds like that the pain may be due to pelvic floor tension or nerve sensitivity since the reports are normal heavy lifting could have re irritated a nerve or muscle Avoid strain Do gentle pelvic floor stretches warm compresses and continue pelvic floor work If it persists or worsens follow up at urologist Focus on rest exam prep everything is going to be ok

Doing light pelvic floor exercises will really help. Avoid heavy lifting.and going on z wheelers on rough surface roads. Wear appropriate size, a little smaller underwear during the day, Take chandraprabha vati 1-0-1 after food with water Shilajit satva 2drops in the morning before breakfast with milk. Apply mahanarayan oil in testicular area.

Hello Pranav I can understand your concern and thanks for reaching out and sharing a detailed history - thats really helpful.

Based on follwing factors like ✅Normal Reports ✅Episodic testicular pain ✅ Pain aggrevated by prolonged sitting or lifting heavy objects ✅ pain relieving by doing pelvis exercises

We may suspect chronic pelvic pain syndrome Nothing to worry it is not infectious or not due to testicular torsion

👉IT MAY BE DUE TO ✔️ pelvic floor muscle tension ✔️nerve irritation ✔️ Referred pain from back ✔️ triggered due to wrong posture or lifting heavy weights

In cpss, no structural abnormality is there so your ultrasound came normal It is mostly neuromuscular

What you can do ? CONTINUE PELVIC MUSCLE RELAXATION EXERCISES- 1 Reverse kegels 2 stretches that helps- child pose Supine hamstring and hip stretches Practice this for 10 mins daily (even when you dont have pain)

**Practice 5-10 mins mindfulness or guided meditation

**INTERNAL MEDICATION THAT WILL HELP ** 1 Chandraprabha vati 2-0-2 after food twice daily 2 Balaristham 30ml-0-30ml after food daily

**SOS MEDICINE- if pain is more keep mahadhanwanthram gullika 2-2-2 in your mouth

If you ever get- ✅Sudden, severe pain ✅Swelling , redness or high fever ✅Vomiting with pain Rush to ER just to rule out torsion or any other acute issues

You r 19 , healthy and your testucles were cleared of serious causes. What you re expetrencing is common in many young men , often tied to pelvic floor imbalance , nerve tension and posture - not something dangerous

One of my patient’s son also had this problem he was even hesitated to tell his problem just i advised him some exercises and then since may be 9-10 months he didnt had any pain so dont worry

Hope you found this helpful 😊

HELLO PRANAV,

You’ve had testicular pain that: -was dull and chronic at first - became acute once(dec 2024) -then resolved, only yo return after lifting something heavy

PROBABLE CAUSES

1) PELVIC FLOOR DYSFUNCTION- HIGHLY LIKELY -the pelvic floor muscles support the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs - when these muscles are tight, overactive or fatigued, they can refer pain to the testicles or perineum. This often causes- a deep acting, dragging, or burning pain, -pain worsened by sitting, lifting, bowel movements -no obvious swelling or infection, making it hard to diagnose through scans

You mentioned light pelvic floor exercises helped you earlier. This is a strong clue that the pain may be muscular and nerve related.

2) REFERRED PAIN FROM LUMBAR SPINE OR GROIN MUSCLES -lifting awkwardly can strain - lower back muscles, groin, nerves like ilioinguinal or genitofemoral nerve

-These nerve pass through the inguinal canal and can refer pain directly to the testicle, inner thigh, or lower abdomen. -commong in athletic young men or students who sit a lot.

3) SUBCINICAL VARICOCELE OR SPERMATIC CORD TENSION -a varicocele is a dilated vein(like a varicose vein) in the scrotu. -sometimes, even if it’s not a big enough to be diagnosed in a standard ultrasound, it can cause -dull, dragging sensation, worse with standing or physical exertion - relief when lying down

The fact that lifting triggered recurrence hints at pressure buildup in the pelvic veins.

4) CHRONIC ORCHIALGIA/ NEUROPATHIC PAIN -defined as testicular pain> 3 months without identifiable cause -this can become a “central sensitisation” issue, where nerves remain hypersensitive even when no damage is present. -this can triggered again by stress, lifting, or inactivity.

In Ayurveda, your condition points towards a vata imbalance, particularly -APANA VATA governs= elimination, sexual function, testes, bladder, pelvic organs

when disturbed due to- overexertion, improper sitting posture, irregular eating/sleep, suppression of urges(like avoiding urination or defecation) Apana vata gets vitiated, leading to conditions like -vatakundalika= pain/twisting in testicles -shukrashmari= seminal gravel or blockage -gudabhramsha= pelvic muscle laxity - snayugata vata= tendon/muscle-related vata disorder

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) VRIDDHIVADHIKA VATI- 1 tab twice a day after meals with warm water = especially useful in conditions where vata has lodged in the groin or inguinal canal.

2) YOGARAJ GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice daily with lukewarm water = deep acting on muscular tension, pelvic nerve pain or myofascial trigger points(especially good if there’s associated back pain or stiffness)

3) RASNADI GUGGULU- 1 tab twice daily after meals = anti inflammatory, balances vata kapha, if testicular or pelvic pain is worsened after exertion or cold weather

4) SAHACHARADI KASHAYA- 15 ml with water before meals twice daily = nerve related groin/ testicular pain, especially radiating types

5) BRIHATVATA CHINTAMANI RASA- 125 mg with water mixed ghee once in morning = restore nerve strength, used in condition like chronic orchialgia

6) KANCHANAR GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice daily after meals = especially benefits in hidden varicocele or lymphatic congestion in the groin

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

1) OIL MASSAGE daily with Sahacharadi taila or prasarini taila =gently massage lower abdomen, inner thighs, and lower back

LIFESTYLE AND DINACHARYA -avoid lifting heat weights, prolonged sitting, and constipation -take warm sitz baths daily with a pinch of rock salt - maintain a regular sleep schedule and avoid excessive screen time

DIET -warm, cooked meals -avoid dry, cold, spicy, or processed foods -include= ghee, milk with turmeric or ashwagandha, cooked moong dal, dates, figs, soaked almonds -avoid caffeine and excessive tea

YOGIC SUPPORT regular, gentle yoga focusing on -pelvic floor release and hip mobility -supta baddha konasana=reclining bound angle pose -viparita karai= legs-up-the-wall-pose - ananda balasana= happy baby pose

PRANAYAM -anulom vilom - bhramari

SEEK IMMEDIATED MEDICAL HELP IG -sudden severe pain - swelling, redness, or fever -testicle feels firm, irregular or pulled up - nausea or vomiting with pain

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

HELLO PRANAV,

you’ve had -normal usg and urine test -pain improved with rest and light pelvic floor pain returned after lifting something heavy. This history suggest that your pain is likely musculoskeletal or nerve related rather than a disease or infection

POSSIBLE DIAGNOSIS -epididymalgia -referred pain from lower back or groin muscles -pelvic floor dysfunction or tension -varicocele - genitofemoral or iliolinguinal nerve irritation

HOW SERIOUS IT IS you’re not describing -sudden severe pain now like torsion -sweeling or rednes -systemic signs like fever or urinary issues That rules out emergencies, which is reassuring

However chronic or recurrent testicular pain still deserves good management-especially to protect your quality of life and focus during exams

MEDICAL RECOMMED -rest and avoid strain= no lifting, squats, or core workouts until pain settles -warm compress= 15 mins a day can relax tense muscles or veins -NSAIDs= if safe fr you, take for short term use of inflammation -pelvic floor relaxation> strengthening = relaxation exercise like deep diaphragmatic breathing or yoga childs pose over kegel as of now -try scrotal support /jockstrap -especialy when walking or sitting Long hours

INTERNALLY TAKE

- ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk after meals

-GOKSHURA TABLET= 50 mg twice daily after meals

-YOGARAJ GUGGULU= 2 tab twice daily with warm water

-CHANDRAPRABHA VATI= 2 tabs twice daily after meals

-DASHMOOLA TAILA EXTERNAL APPLICATION = around lower abdomen, groin and lower back - 2 times daily for 15 min

DIET -warm, light, grounding foods -avoid cold/raw/fried food -ghee or sesame oil can help calm internal vata -hydrate well-but avoid cold drinks

LIFESTYLE -stretching=hamstrings, hip flexors, lower back -yoga= childs pose, supta badhakonasana, leg up the wall -stress reduction= meditation, box breathing-tress can tighten the pelvic flOOR

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

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. Prasad Pentakota
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. 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. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

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.

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. 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. Haresh Vavadiya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor currently practicing at Ayushakti Ayurveda—which honestly feels more like a learning ecosystem than just a clinic. Being here has changed the way I look at chronic conditions. You don’t just treat the label—you go after the cause, layer by layer, and that takes patience, structure, and real connection with the person sitting in front of you. Ayushakti has been around 33+ years, with global reach and seriously refined clinical systems. That means I get to work with protocols that are both deeply rooted in traditional Ayurveda and also super practical for today’s world. Whether I’m managing arthritis, asthma, skin issues like eczema or psoriasis, hormone trouble, gut problems, or stress overload—my first step is always a deep analysis. Prakriti, doshas, ahar-vihar, past treatments—everything gets mapped out. Once I’ve got that picture clear, I create a plan using herbal medicines, detox programs (especially Panchakarma), Marma therapy if needed, and definitely food and routine corrections. But nothing’s random. Each piece is chosen for *that* person. And I don’t just prescribe—I explain. Because when someone knows *why* they’re doing a certain thing, they stick with it longer, and the results hold. One thing I’ve learned while working here is how powerful Ayurved can be when it's structured right. At Ayushakti, that structure exists. It helps me treat confidently and track results properly. Whether I’m working with a first-time visitor or a patient who’s been dealing with the same thing for 10 years, my goal stays the same—help their system return to a natural, sustainable state of balance. What I really enjoy is seeing how people’s mindset changes once they start to feel better. When they stop depending on just temporary relief and start building their health from within—that’s when the real shift happens. And being part of that shift? That’s why I do this.

Dr. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.
