Hi, don’t worry — your symptoms of allergic rhinitis and sneezing can definitely be managed. But since this has been going on for 5 years, only internal medicines won’t be enough at this stage. You’ll need to include some Panchakarma treatments along with internal therapy for lasting relief. First, please get your CBC, ESR, and basic blood reports done and also mention your age, so we can tailor the treatment better. We’ll begin with a combination of internal medicines and Nasya therapy. In addition to the regular medicines, I also advise starting Agasthya Haritaki 12gm with warm milk or water at bedtime. Along with this, Marsha Nasya with Anu Taila for 7–14 days, preceded by proper Mukhabhyanga and Nadi Swedana, will help cleanse and strengthen the nasal passages.

Nasya Treatment (for 7–14 days): Mukhabhyanga – Gentle face massage with Dhanwantaram Taila or Ksheerabala Taila Nadi Swedana – Mild steam over face and forehead for 5–10 minutes Marsha Nasya – 6 drops of Anu Taila in each nostril (early morning, empty stomach or as advised) Post-nasya routine – Gargle with warm water + avoid exposure to cold/dust right after

Internal Medicines: Vyoshadi Vatakam – 12 gm with warm milk, twice daily Talisadi Choornam – with honey, twice daily before food Dashamoola-Katutrayadi Kashayam – 15 ml + 45 ml warm water, twice daily before food Agasthya Haritaki – 12 gm with warm milk or warm water at bedtime

Namaste Asha 🙏 I can understand your concern regarding Allergic rhintis and discomfort you must be facing due to frequent sneezing, watery discharge, nasal congestion, and irritation. But dont worry we are here to help you out 😊

Ayurvedic Persepctive -

In Ayurveda, this condition can be coreleated with Vata-Kaphaja Pratishyay.( pratishaya is rhinitis ) It often occurs due to: ✅Mandagni (digestive fire) leading to formation of Ama (toxins) ✅Aggravation of Vata and Kapha doshas ✅Poor immunity (Ojas kshaya) ✅Exposure to dust, pollen, cold foods, or climate change

Comprehensive Ayurvedic Line of Management

Main cause for Allergic Rhinitis is yoyr poor immunity so our main line of treatment will be as follows- 1 Improving your immunity 2 Reducing the intensity allergic response 3 symptomatic relief

1️⃣ Internal Medicines:

1 Agastya rasyanam 1 tsp morning empty stomach followed by warm water. To improve immunity 2 Dashmoolkatutreya ks tab 2-0-2 after food twice daily ** to reduce sneezing and post nasa dribbling l ** 3 Asthavin. Lehyam 1 tsp at bed time follwed by warm water ** to reduce exagerated response**


2️⃣ Nasya Therapy (Nasal Medicated Oil)

🩺 Pratimarsha Nasya – Daily instillation of: • Anu Taila – 2 drops in each nostril every morning

Relieves congestion, strengthens nasal mucosa & prevents recurrence


3️⃣ Diet & Lifestyle Recommendations

🍽️ Diet Tips: ✅ Include: • Warm, home-cooked, light meals • Ginger tea, turmeric milk • Tulsi decoction (Tulsi + Black pepper + Honey) • Amla, Ghee, Moong Dal

❌ Avoid: • Cold foods/drinks, curd, banana at night • Ice cream, carbonated drinks • Excess wheat, dairy, and fried food

Lifestyle changes- • Avoid early morning exposure to cold air • Do steam inhalation with tulsi + ajwain • Practice Pranayama – especially Anulom Vilom and Bhramari

Home Remedies:

1. Tulsi-Ginger-Honey Tea – Boil tulsi leaves and ginger in water, add honey when lukewarm

2. Turmeric + Honey Paste – ½ tsp turmeric with honey – take before sleep

3. Dry roast ajwain (carom seeds) in a cloth pouch and inhale fumes when congested

Allergic rhinitis can be well managed through Ayurvedic detox + Rasayana therapy + Nasya, especially if you act early. With proper care, many patients experience long-term relief without dependency on antihistamines.

HELLO ASHA,

Allergic rhinitis is a chronic hypersensitivity condition that requires a long term , multi pronged approach- especially when it has lasted as long as a 5 years and is resistant to medications.

Allergic rhinitis in Ayurveda is commonly correlated with - vata kapha disorder, primarily involving pratisyaya(rhinitis) -ama(toxins) accumulation - rasa dhatu dushti(derangement in bodily fluids) - agni mandya- low digestive fire

GOAL OF TREATMENT -reduced hypersensitivity to allergens - remove accumulated Ama(toxins) - balance kapha and vata -open blocked nasal and sinus channels - boost respiratory immunity.

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) HARIDRA KHANDA= 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily In morning and night for 3-6 months = anti-allergic, reduces kapha, improves immunity.

2) SHITOPALADI CHURNA + YASTIMADHU + HONEY= 1 tsp + 1/2 tsp + 1 tsp honey, mix and take after meals twice daily for 3 months =stops sneezing, liquifies phlegm, soothes throat

3) TALISADI CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with honey after meals for 2 months =bronchodilator reduces congestion , PND

4) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water before meals for 8 weeks =improves digestive fire, burns toxins and enhances metabolism

5) CHYAWANPRASH= 1 tsp I’m morning with warm milk for long term = rejuvinator for respiratory system and immunity booster

6) PATHYADI KADHA= 20 ml with warm water after meals for 6 weeks = clears sinuses, headache relief, balance all three doshas

NASYA THERAPY -SHAD BINDU TAILA= 4 drops in each nostril daily morning after bath for 30-45 days =lubricates nasal passages, open sinuses, detoxifieskapha from head

IF FEASIBLE CAN GO FOR PANCHAKARMA FOR INSTANT RELIEF -VAMANA -BASTI

DIET TO BE FOLLOWED -warm, cooked food= moong dal, rice, cooked veggies - turmeric, ginger, black pepper - herbal teas- tulsi, licorice, cinnamon - cow ghee - lukewarm water throughout the day.

AVOID -cold raw food -ice creams, cold drinks, curd(esp at night) - bananas, oranges, guava -fried, oily, or stale food - milk + salt combination

PRANAYAM AND YOGA -anulom vilom= 10 min daily, balances prana, clears nasal blockages - bhramari= 5 min, soothes sinuses and nerves - jal neti= 2-3 timmes/week, physically cleans nasal passages -suryanamskar =5 rounds, boosts immunity , circulation

HOME REMEDIES -turmeric+ honey paste(1:1)= 1/2 tsp twice a day - tulsi-ginger decocotion= 1 cup daily -steam inhalation with ajwain twice daily - ghee drop in nostrils at night for dryness

EXPECTED TIMELINE

DURATION 2-4 WEEK= reduced sneezing, PND 2-3 month= less recurrence 4-6 months= long term control, tissue healing

DURING SEASONAL PREVENTION - repeat nasya, rasayana pre-winter and spring= prevent relapse

If Constipation or digestion is impaired, begin with TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp at night -for post nasal drip+ sinus pressure= mix of trikatu churna+ honey -avoid suppressing natural urges(like sneezing, yawing, burping)- worsen vata kapha disorders

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Allergic rhinitis, often rooted in an imbalance of the kapha dosha, can be persistent yet manageable with a dedicated Ayurvedic approach. Addressing this condition requires a multi-faceted strategy, focusing on diet, lifestyle changes, and specific herbal remedies designed to balance kapha, boost immunity, and support respiratory health. Here’s what you can do:

First, it’s crucial to alter your diet to reduce kapha accumulation. Favor light, warm, and spicy foods. Incorporate more ginger, garlic, and turmeric in your meals, as they help in reducing excess mucus. Avoid dairy products, refined sugars, and cold or heavy foods that can increase kapha and aggravate symptoms.

Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine to stimulate circulation and digestion. Yoga poses such as Bhujangasana (cobra pose) and Matsyasana (fish pose) are beneficial for opening up the respiratory passageways and improving lung capacity.

Nasya, a procedure in Ayurveda involving the administration of medicinal oils through the nostrils, can work wonders. Anu taila, a classical oil formulation, can help clear nasal passages when applied daily in the mornings. Consult an Ayurveda practitioner before starting, to ensure the right technique and oil choice based on your constitution.

Herbal formulations like Sitopaladi churna, Talisadi churna or Trikatu can provide relief. These blends work on clearing up the respiratory system and balancing kapha. Take them as advised by an Ayurvedic practiotioner with warm water or honey.

Practicing Pranayama, especially Kapalbhati and Anulom Vilom, enhances lung capacity and removes blockages in the nasal passages.

Maintain a regular sleeping pattern and try steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil or tulsi to relieve congestion.

Implementing these changes, while be patient, is often the key to success in Ayurveda. If your symptoms do not improve, please seek personal consultation with ayurvedic physician.
