Most probably your swelling of leg is associated with kidney issue, so in this stage I can't suggest you internal medicines without a direct detailed consultation. For externally you can apply * Jatamayadi churnam- Make paste with Rice washed water and heat up the paste, let it cool down, in normal temperature you can apply the paste for 45min, then wash it off.

Right leg swelling, especially if you've been dealing with it for such a long time, suggests looking at underlying causes. Since you've mentioned a connection to liver and kidney issues, it's crucial to address these conditions and get appropriate medical attention from professionals who can assess it further. In the meantime, Ayurveda can offer some supportive measures to help manage symptoms. First, understand that from an Ayurvedic perspective, leg swelling can be associated with imbalances in the doshas, particularly Kapha, which oversees fluids and can cause water retention in tissues. Ensuring that digestion (Agni) is strong is essential, as poor digestion can accumulate toxins (Ama) and worsen the problem. Consider incorporating these suggestions into your daily routine: 1. **Dietary Adjustments:** Reduce salt intake, as excess salt can cause fluid retention. Focus on fresh fruits, vegetables and grains. Include spices like ginger and turmeric that can support circulation and digestion. 2. **Herbal Support:** Begin with mild diuretic herbs such as Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa). This can help to reduce water retention. Triphala is another option that supports digestion and detoxification. 3. **Lifestyle:** Encourage daily moderate exercise, such as walking or yoga, which can improve circulation and help alleviate swelling. Elevating your legs when sitting can also be helpful. 4. **Medications and therapies:** Consider consulting with a skilled Ayurvedic practitioner for therapies like gentle massages with warm oil, such as mustard oil or sesame oil, depending on your dosha balance. 5. **Hydration:** Ensure you stay well-hydrated by drinking warm water and herbal teas. Avoid cold beverages, which can aggravate Kapha. 6. **Medical Supervision:** It's important not to overlook the continued consultation with your healthcare provider about your liver and kidney health. These organs have significant roles in fluid balance and toxicity in the body, and any imbalance needs ongoing assessment and treatment by medical professionals. Quick improvements are unlikely, so be patient and consistent with these approaches. Always consult with healthcare providers for severe symptoms, and ensuring they have a thorough understanding of any treatments you use, including Ayurveda.
