Anu ji ,What You Can Do: Safe, Natural Relief Plan

1. Release Pressure in Head and Jaw

Morning and evening routine (10–15 mins):

Jaw Release: Gently open and close your jaw; massage below ears with fingertips in circles.

Neck Stretches: Slow neck tilts and shoulder rolls.

Steam Inhalation with Ajwain or Tulsi: Helps open sinuses and Eustachian tubes.

Pranayama: Anulom Vilom and Bhramari (bee breath is excellent for tinnitus).

Consult ayurvedic ENT specialist, panchakarma works great in such cases

Diet- Eat small, frequent, warm meals.

Use digestive spices: jeera, hing, ajwain, fennel, coriander.

Avoid gas-forming foods: cauliflower, cabbage, rajma, chana, onion-garlic-heavy dishes.

Hello Anu ji, Thank you for sharing your concern. I can understand your concern regarding ringing in the ears (tinnitus), pressure from jaw to back of head, and bloating, acidity, burping, all this clearly points toward a Vata and pitta imbalance in Ayurvedic terms.

Don’t worry we are here to help you out😊

AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE

Your symptoms indicate: 👉Tinnitus ➡️ Which is due to Vata aggravation in head and ear region 👉Bloating, burping, acidity ➡️ Agnimandya (weak digestion) Aama( toxins) 👉High normal heart rate (85 bpm) ➡️ may relate to anxiety-type Vata-Pitta imbalance

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT

✅ Internal Medication

1 Acidonil 2-0-2 before food (For acidity, gas, heartburn) 2 Saraswatarishta 15ml-0-15ml after food ( Calms Vata, supports nerves & ringing) 3 Ashwagandha capsule 1 cap at bedtime ( For nerve calming & restful sleep) 4. Yograj guggulu 1-0-1 after food ( helps in tinnitus) 5 Avipattikar Churna 1 tsp at bedtime with warm milk (Relieves constipation, acidity and gas)

These will work to reduce pressure in head, regulate digestion, and calm nervous system.

✅EXTERNAL TREATMENT 1 vachalahsunadi taila - apply warm. Oil on head half hour before bath 2 bilva taila -put 2 drops in each ear

IF RINGING IS SEVERE YOU. HAVE TO DO PANCHAKRAMA ☑️KARNA PURNA- MEDICATED OIL WILL BE POURED COMPLETELY COVERING YOUR EAR FOR. NOURISHING AND PACIFYING VATA ☑️KARNA ABHYNAGA AND NADI SWEDA ( THIS WILL OPEN UP THE CHANNELS)

✅DIET MODIFICATION

✅ include Warm, soft, cooked meals Moong dal khichdi, vegetable soups Buttermilk with jeera at lunch Ghee in meals (1 tsp twice a day) Soaked raisins, figs (empty stomach)

❌ Avoid: Tea/coffee on empty stomach Fried, packaged or spicy foods Sour curd at night Late dinners (eat before 8 pm) Cold water and aerated drinks

✅. Lifestyle changes needed

➡️Wake up before 7 AM Aligns Vata rhythm ➡️5 min Anulom Vilom + Bhramari Pranayama ( Soothes tinnitus & mental stress) ➡️Avoid screen time before bed Improves nerve recovery

✅Home Remedies that you can try ✅ Cumin + Fennel tea – Boil ½ tsp each in 2 cups of water, reduce to 1 cup, drink twice daily for bloating and gas ✅ Massage jawline to occipital bone with warm sesame oil daily relieves tension in neck & ear canals

With consistently following the treatment you will definately see result in yourself😊👍 just be consistent

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

hello anu Sharma,

Your body is giving signals that Vata and Pitta are both aggravated, especially in your head, ears, and digestive tract. The pressure around the ears and back of the head, the tinnitus (ringing), and even that constant burping and acidity these are not separate issues. They’re part of a deeper gut–nervous system imbalance. Ayurveda calls this a Urdhwaga Amlapitta with Vata prakopa.

The thyroid adds a layer of metabolic and emotional sensitivity making your system more reactive to even minor shifts. So yes, you’re feeling overwhelmed, because your mind, gut, and nerves are all interlinked and overstimulated right now.

But here’s the hope, Ayurveda doesn’t just target one part we work on the whole system. With gentle herbs and regular routines, we’ll calm your gut, reduce that head pressure, balance hormones, and bring the ringing under control. It won’t be overnight, but yes you can come back to balance.

Treatment Plan (For 6–8 weeks at least)

1. Internal Medicines

Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water Brahmi Vati – 1 tab in the morning on empty stomach Saraswatarishta – 15 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner Kamdudha Ras (with Mukta) – 1 tab twice a day (soothing to both head and gut) Dashamoola Haritaki Lehyam – 1 tsp at night with warm water

2. Nasya (Nasal Drops - Very Effective)

Anu Taila – 2 drops in each nostril in the morning after steam (Helps drain the head, balance pressure around ears, and support tinnitus)

3. Diet & Lifestyle

Eat warm, light food. Avoid sour, fermented, spicy food No tea/coffee at night. Avoid lying down immediately after meals Sip warm cumin-fennel water throughout the day Do 10 mins of slow Anulom Vilom and Bhramari in a quiet space Walk 20 mins in open air, daily — your mind needs grounding too

shodana treatment : Mild Abhyanga (oil massage) weekly with Ksheerabala or Dhanwantaram Taila Keep head warm, avoid fans/cold air directly on head

Give your body a little time and trust you’re not broken, just imbalanced. Slowly, the ringing will reduce, the pressure will settle, digestion will get stronger, and you’ll start feeling clear in your own body again.

If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, regards, dr.Karthika

Tinnitus along with pressure around the ear and up to the head can be quite bothersome and often ties back to Vata and Pitta imbalance, based on Ayurvedic principles. Let’s see how we address this through Ayurvedic insights.

First thing is diet. Focus on a Vata and Pitta pacifying diet. Avoid overly spicy, acidic or fermented foods that can exacerbate these dosha’s imbalances, leading to bloating and acidity. Caffeine and processed food can also add to acidity, so better stay away. Prefer warm cooked meals with mild spices. Moong dal khichdi, a combination of rice and split yellow lentils, is great. Include ghee, which has a calming effect on Vata, and cooling herbs like coriander — add this to your food, or make a coriander seed tea to calm the system.

Routine plays a vital role, bring regularity in sleep and wake timings to balance agni (digestive fire). Practice oil pulling using sesame oil for calming nerve endings around the mouth and head. Swish a tablespoon of it for 10-15 minutes, spit and rinse. This might alleviate the pressure.

Introduce gentle yoga or pranayama like Anulom Vilom to soothe the mind and breath. Effective for calming mind, which directly impacts ear-related issues. A short evening walk can also do wonders to balance Vata, helping ease ringing and pressure. For immediate relief, pranayama like brahmari, especially focusing on exhaling through the nose with a humming sound, would directly target ear pressure.

You may consider Nasya, with Anu Thailam, where medicated oil is administered in nostrils. It’s best though to do this under guidance of a practitioner to ensure correct application.

Finally, ensure you are hydrated with room temperature water or warm herbal teas to assist digestion and detoxification, helping reduce overall bloat and acidity. Remember to check your posture - stress buildup or tension around neck and head due to poor posture, can add pressure sensation.

If symptoms persist or condition worsens, seeking professional medical assessment is essential, to rule out more complex underlying issues.

HELLO ANU SHARMA,

Tinnitus and pressure around the ear, jaw, and back of the head- especially when accompanied by bloating, acidity, and frequent burping- can be interconnected. These symptoms indicate a disturbance in vata and Pitta doshas, possibly aggravated by ama(toxins) and digestive imbalances

PROBABLE AYURVEDIC DIAGNOSIS -karnanada(tinitus) due to vata imbalance - Urdhwag amla pitta(acid reflux) contributing to head pressure -possibly Ama and agni Mandya (low digestive fire)

AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT

DIET -avoid spicy, sour, and oily foods= these aggravate pitta and vata -take warm, cooked meals easy to digest -avoid carbonated drinks, tea/coffee, and processed food -sip warm water throughout the day - include ghee in diet to pacify vata and nourish tissues - triphala at bedtime-1/2 tsp with warm water for detox and bowel regulation

HERBAL MEDICATIONS

FOR TINNUTUS AND HEAD PRESSURE

-SARIVADI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after food with warm water

-ASHWAGANDHA CAPSULES= 1 cap once at night with milk for calming vata and nerves

-BRAHMI GHRITA= 1 tsp in warm milk at bedtime to soothe the mind

FOR ACIDITY AND BLOATING

-AVIPPATIKAR CHURNA= 1/2 tsp before meals with warm water

-HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water after meals for gas and bloating

EXTERNAL THERPIES

1) NASYA KARMA= instill 2 drops of ANU TAILA in each nostril daily morning empty stomach

2) KARNA PURANA= warm Kshirabala Taila 2 drops in each ear

LIFESTLYE -follow a fixed daily routine, eat and sleep on time -avoid loud noises, overuse of earphones -reduce stress and anxiety-practice

PRANAYAM -nadi sodhana - bhramari =especially effective for tinnitus

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA
