hello bayas, What you’re describing that pulling type of pain in the lower abdomen every 20 minutes, urge to pass stool but only gas comes out is most likely a sign of Apana Vata imbalance in Ayurveda. Apana Vata controls the downward movement in the body, like urination, bowel movement, menstruation, etc. When it gets disturbed, the Vata gets stuck in the colon. This leads to this kind of discomfort bloating, frequent urge, and incomplete evacuation feeling.”

It’s a functional issue right now, not necessarily a serious disease but if not managed now, it can progress to IBS-like patterns. The good thing is Ayurveda is very effective in correcting these Vata-related gut issues quickly.”

Internal Medication: (for 2 weeks minimum): Hingvashtaka Churna – ½ tsp with warm water before meals, 2 times daily Abhayarishta – 20 ml with equal warm water after dinner Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp with warm water at bedtime Kutajghan Vati – 1 tab twice daily after food (only if loose stools start)

Diet Tips: Avoid raw vegetables, fruits, cold food, curd, fridge water for now Eat warm, soft food like rice, moong dal, cumin-water, ghee, lightly cooked vegetables Take warm ajwain-jeera-fennel water throughout the day Avoid heavy-to-digest food like wheat roti, chana, fried food, maida

External Support: Apply warm castor oil or sesame oil on lower abdomen before bath Light fomentation (hot water bag) on belly 10 minutes after meals Optional Tests (only if pain continues more than 5 days): Stool Routine Abdominal Ultrasound CBC and ESR

This looks more like a functional Vata-Kapha imbalance than infection, so with this line of treatment you should start feeling relief in 2–3 days itself. Keep your body warm, and avoid suppressing natural urges like fart or urine.

If anything changes or pain increases, do let me know immediately.

Take care, Regards, Dr.Karthika

Take Kutaj ghanvati 1-0-1 after food with water, help reduce feeling of going to toilet Tablet Liv-52 1-0-1 with water after food, This Will improve your digestion capacity, as gas in abdomen shows poor digestion capacity.

HELLO BAYAS,

Your reported symptoms - lower abdominal pulling pain every 20 minutes for 2 days -urge to defecate frequently , but only gas passes - no chronic illness - age= 45

These symptoms point towards a disturbance in Apana vata, a subtype of Vata dosha that governs the pelvic region, including the colon, urinary bladder, and reproductive organs.

Your symptoms suggest -Anaha= suppressed flatus, discomfort due to gas - Adhmana= gaseous distention in lower abdomen - Vibandha= constipation or incomplete evacuation -Possibly early stage of Grahani: A functional digestive disorder caused by mandagni (low digestive fire)

POSSIBLE CAUSES IN YOUR CASE -eating at irregular times - dry, cold, or gas-producing foods like cauliflower, chana etc - suppression of natural urges - emotional stress or overthinking - vata increases with stress - exposure to cold weather, sitting on cold surfaces - excessive travel or activity

AYURVEDA PATHOPHYSIOLOGY

DOSHA= vata(apana) is vitiated-becomes erratic, cold, and dry DUSHYA= agni(digestive fire) and Malas(waste products, especially faces) SROTAS AFFECTED= annavaha srotas(digestive tract),Purishavaha srotas(colon) SYMPTOMS= pulling pain, bloating, flatus without stool, urge to defecate repeatedly, discomfort

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN

1) AGNI DEEPANA AND AMAPACHANA (stimulating digestion and removing toxins)

-HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1 tsp with water water after meals =relieves gas, bloating , colic, kindles digestive fire

-TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with honey or warm water before mealls = digestive stimulant

-AJWAIN+ ROCK SALT -chew 1 tsp ajwain with a pinch of rock salt -follow with warm water =acts as a natural carminative

2) VATA ANULOMANA(normalising downward movement of vata)

-AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at night = softens stools, reduces bloating and vata disturbance

-ABHAYARISHTA= 20 ml + 20 ml water after dinner = mild laxative, balances apana vata, improves bowel habits

3) PAIN MANAGEMENT

-DASHMOOLA KASHAYA= 20 ml + warm water twice daily before meals =releieves deep seated vata related colic, supports apana vata balance

EXTERNAL OIL APPLICATION -Dashmoola taila =warm the oil, apply to lower abdomen and gently massage clockwise for 5-10 min -cover the area with a hot water bag

RECOMMENDED DIET -moong dal khichdi with ghee- easy to digest, balances all doshas - boiled vegetables= ash gourd, bottle gourd, carrots - rice gruel with cumin and rock salt - warm water with ginger, fennel or cumin throughout the day -buttermilk with roasted cumin and hing after lunch

FOODS TO AVOID -cold water and refrigerated food= increases vata, weakens digestion -curd at night= heavily increases kapha and vata - pulses like chana, rajma, urad dal= gas forming - cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli= faltulence - fried and spicy food= disturbs digestive fire, increases pitta-vata - tea, coffee, carbonated drinks= irritate vata and colon

LIFESTYLE RECOMMENDATIONS -wake up early by 6 am, bowel habits tend to improve with routine - take a short walk after meals - gentle yoga poses *pawanmuktasana *apanasana *vajrasana after meals -Use a hot water bag over the abdomen for pain relief - keep abdomen warm, avoid sitting on cold surfaces

DON’T -avoid excessive physical exertion -avoid suppressing urge to urinate/pass stool -don’t delay meals or overeat

DO FOLLOW

THANK YOU

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Stomach pain and a frequent urge to use the toilet can be quite discomforting. Based on the symptoms you’ve described, it could possibly indicate an imbalance in the Vata dosha, characterized by irregular or excessive movement within the body, often affecting the digestive system. This imbalance could lead to symptoms like the pulling pain and the sensation of needing to pass stool but only passing gas.

To address the discomfort, consider including warm, cooked, and easily digestible foods in your diet, as these can help pacify Vata. Foods like cooked rice, khichdi (a porridge made from a mixture of rice and lentils), and soups can be soothing to your digestive system. Avoid cold, raw, and dry foods until the symptoms subside, as they can aggravate Vata.

Ginger tea or warm fennel tea after meals may also help in relieving the gas and promoting digestion. Chewing on a small piece of fresh ginger with a dash of rock salt before meals might stimulate your digestive fire, known as ‘Agni’, which is important for effective digestion and assimilation.

In terms of lifestyle, try to avoid rushed activities and create a sense of calm in your routines. Practicing gentle yoga or deep breathing exercises might also support the calming of Vata dosha.

If the pain continues without improvement, and especially if it increases in intensity, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional to rule out any serious underlying causes. Immediate attention is needed if any new symptoms arise, like fever, vomiting, or severe and persistent pain. Seeking a professional opinion ensures that you receive the appropriate care needed for your condition.

HELLO BAYAS,

SYMPTOMS -pulling pain in lower abdomen (not pricking)-> indicates vata imbalance, particularly apana vata -pain occurs every 20 minutes-> suggests vata vitiation with Vamana vata disturbance affecting gut motility -feeling of urge to defecate often, but only flatus is released -> points to adhmana (bloating) and vibandha (incomplete evacuation) -chronic illness=none- good for response to natural therapy

AYURVEDIC DIAGNOSIS

PULLING PAIN- vata vyadhi especially apana vata= dry, mobile, irregular sensation

GAS BUT NO MOTION= adhmana/anaha= obstructed vata in colon

FREQUENT URGE= apana vata dushti= imbalanced downward movement

NO APPETITE, HEAVINESS= mandagni(low digestive fire)- poor digestive fire leads to toxin accumulation

STEP 1= STIMULATE DIGESTION AND REMOVE TOXINS

-HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with ghee before meals thrice daily =reduces gas, improves digestion

-AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water at bedtime =helps with bowel evacuation

-SHANKHA VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals =for abdominal cramps, gas

-TRIKATU CHURNA= 1 pinch with honey before meals =boosts digestion

take for 15-30 days

STEP 2= after 15 days of step 1- pacifying apana vata

-DASHMOOLA KWATHA= 20 ml with warm water twice daily after meals =reduces pain, vata pacifier

-ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm milk at bedtime =strengthen apana vata

EXTERNAL THERAPY

-OIL MASSAGE with mahanarayan taila=daily before bath

-Warm castor oil pack on lower abdomen=15-20 mins daily

-Hot water bag fomentation after meals

DIET PLAN

MORNING(empty stomach)= warm water with 1 tsp ghee or cumin tea

BREAKFAST= soft rice kanji or moong dal porridge, with pinch of ajwain

MID-MORNING= roasted fennel seeds or pomegranate

LUNCH= warm khichdi(moong dal+rice), cooked vegetables like pumpkin, bottle gourd, carrot

EVENING= jeera ajwain tea or warm lemon water

DINNER= soft rice, moong dal soup, 1 tsp ghee

BEFORE BED= 1 tsp triphala churna with warm water and ghee

this is sample diet plan, plan your diet accordingly

AVOID STRICTLY -beans like rajma, chole, chana -milk products - raw salads - carbonated drinks, bakery items - leftover food -cold or refrigerated items - cabbage, cauliflower, potato

LIFESTYLE

-wake up by 6-7 am -yoga daily= pawanmuktasana, apanasana, vajrasana, malasana, suryanamskar -10-15 mins walk after meals stimulate digestion -avoid afternoon naps= increases kapha worsens digestion -sleep by 10 pm= prevents vata aggravation at night

PANCHAKARMA ADVISED -basti-medicated enema= best and very effective -virechana

TIMELINE OF RELIEF

DAY 1-3= reduced bloating, better digestion DAY 4-7= reduced pain frequency, better bowel movement WEEK 2= restored agni, minimal or no gas improved comfort WEEK 3= vata stability and digestive health

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

Dr. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.

I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

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. 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. Neha Saini
I am Vaidya Neha Saini and Ayurveda’s not just my work—it’s kind of like my language of healing, a thing I live by, day in and out. I did my BAMS from Shree Krishna Govt Ayurvedic College in Kurukshetra and later finished MD in Ayurveda from Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, Pune (that place had a different kind of energy honestly). With more than five yrs of clinical experience under my belt, I’ve kinda shaped my path around treating chronic issues, long-drawn imbalances and lifestyle disorders that modern life throws at people without warning. My way of working isn’t about chasing symptoms. I try to understand what’s really going on underneath—it’s like the root cause matters more than just quieting the noise. I use classical Ayurvedic principles but I also keep an eye on modern clinical understanding, ‘cause you can’t ignore how medicine’s growing every day, right? Most of my cases come in with problems like skin conditions—psoriasis, eczema, sometimes hormonal stuff like PCOS or thyroid weirdness, joint stiffness, back pains, post-stroke situations, or nervous system setbacks that need slow but steady support. And for all that, I plan treatment around them, not some fixed protocol. Which means a mix of herbs, Panchakarma detox when needed, food tweaks, even small shifts in daily routine… all matching their prakriti and vikriti. I also do online consults 'cause a lot of folks don't always get to travel or access real Ayurveda nearby. I just feel like everyone should have a shot at natural healing, even if it's through a screen. One thing I try hard to never skip: listening. Really listening to people. Sometimes they don’t even know how to say what's wrong, but they feel it—and that matters. For me, trust is the main pillar, and treatment flows from there. Ayurveda for me isn’t a toolkit or a clinic-only thing. It’s like—how you eat, sleep, breathe, connect with seasons or stress. It’s everywhere. And everytime someone walks in confused, tired or just stuck with some health loop, my aim is to sit beside them—not ahead—and figure the way out together. Not fast fixes, but deep, steady change. That's what I show up for every single time.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

I am working in Ayurveda field from some time now, started out as a general physician at Chauhan Ayurveda Hospital in Noida. That place taught me a lot—how to handle different types of patients in OPD, those daily cases like fever, digestion issues, body pain... but also chronic stuff which keeps coming back. After that I moved to Instant Aushadhalya—an online Ayurveda hospital setup. Whole different space. Consultations online ain’t easy at first—no pulse reading, no direct Nadi check—but you learn to ask the right things, look at patient’s tone, habit patterns, timing of symptoms... and yeah it actually works, sometimes even better than in person. Right now I’m working as an Ayurveda consultant at Digvijayam Clinic where I’m focusing more on individualised care. Most ppl come here with stress-related problems, digestion issues, joint pain, that kind of mix. I go by classic diagnosis principles like prakriti analysis, dosha imbalance and all, but also mix in what I learned from modern side—like understanding their lifestyle triggers, screen time, sleep cycles, food gaps n stress patterns. I don’t rush into panchakarma or heavy medicines unless it’s needed... prefer starting with simple herbs, diet change, basic daily routine correction. If things demand, then I go stepwise into Shodhan therapies. My goal is to not just “treat” but to help ppl know what’s happening in their body and why its reacting like that. That awareness kinda becomes half the cure already. Not everything is perfect. Sometimes ppl don’t follow what you say, sometimes results are slow, and yeah that gets to you. But this path feels honest. It’s slow, grounded, and meaningful.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.
