how to make ayurvedic pain relief oil at home - #25279
I am really struggling with this awful back pain that just won’t go away. A few months ago, I hurt my back lifting something heavy at work, and since then, it’s been like a rollercoaster of pain. I’ve tried over-the-counter meds, and they barely do anything! A friend suggested that I try ayurvedic remedies, and I heard that making your own stuff can be super effective. Like how to make ayurvedic pain relief oil at home seems like a cool idea! I looked up a few recipes but got super confused with all the ingredients and methods. Do I need special oils or herbs? And how long does it take for the oil to be effective once I make it? Can I use it daily? I just want some relief without all those harsh chemicals. Also, can I mix in my own essential oils for scent or extra healing? Help! I'm just hoping there’s an easy way to do this at home because I can't keep dealing with this pain!

X Ray - Can Ayurveda Help Heal My Bone Injury Faster? - #16462
A few weeks ago, I slipped in the bathroom and landed straight on my left wrist. At first, I thought it was just a minor sprain, but the pain kept getting worse, and my wrist started swelling. I finally went to the doctor, and they took an X ray, which showed a small fracture. They put my arm in a cast and told me to rest for a few weeks, but I’m worried about how long it will take to heal completely. This isn’t the first time I’ve had bone issues. A couple of years ago, I had an ankle injury, and even though the X ray showed it was fine after a few months, I kept feeling stiffness and discomfort for a long time. That’s why I want to do something different this time—something that actually helps my bones heal properly. I read that in Ayurveda, fractures and slow bone healing could be linked to Vata imbalance. Does that mean I need to change my diet or lifestyle to recover faster? Another thing I noticed is that even before this injury, my joints would crack a lot, and I had occasional knee pain. When I looked into it, I found that weak bones could be a sign of poor calcium absorption, not just a lack of calcium itself. Could Ayurveda help improve bone strength so I don’t keep getting injured? Are there any specific herbal remedies or oils that can speed up bone recovery after an X ray confirms a fracture? I also don’t like taking too many painkillers because they upset my stomach. Are there Ayurvedic alternatives for managing pain and reducing swelling? Some people recommended Mahanarayan oil and Dashmool, but I’m not sure how to use them correctly for bone healing. If anyone has experience using Ayurveda for bone recovery after an X ray diagnosis, please share what worked for you. How long did it take to feel normal again? Are there any exercises or treatments I should start after my cast is removed to regain full movement in my wrist?
