HELLO PRIYABRATA MAHANTA,

You have been having breathlessness after sneezing especially during episodes of common cold, and it’s been persisting for 2-3 months. while sneezing is common during a cold, feeling short od breath afterward is not normal and indicates a deeper sensitivity or weakness in your respiratory system.

This could be due to

ALLERGIC RHINITIS= sneezing triggered by allergens (dust. pollen) which also inflames airways

POST NASAL DRIP= muscus drips into the throat, irritating it and causing difficulty in breathing

ASTHAMATIC TENDENCY= mild asthma or bronchial hyper responsiveness(lung are reactive)

SINUS-RELATED BREATHING ISSUES= swollen sinuses and blocked nasal passages affecting airflow

UPPER AIRWAY INFLAMMATION- common cold viruses make the airways narrow temporarily

In Ayurveda , this issue is primarily a vata-kapha imbalance in the pranavaha srotas(respiratory channels)

-KAPHA= cough, sneezing, mucus, heaviness

-VATA= breathlessness, dryness, sudden snezing

When kapha blocks the respiratory tract with phlegm/mucus and vata becomes aggravated it causes sneezing followed by breathing difficulty due to disturbed flow of prana(life force)

TREATMENT GOALS -clear respiratory channels(remove mucus,reduce inflammation) -stabilize vata and kapha doshas -strengthen lung function and boost immunity -prevent recurrence and allergic sensitivity

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) SHITOPALADI CHURNA + TALISADI CHURNA= 1/2 tsp each + honey twice daily after meals for 6 weeks =clears, mucus, stops sneezing, strengthens lungs

2) YASHTIMADHU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with warm water in morning and night for 3 weeks =soothes airways, heals inflammation

3) VASAVALEHA = 1 tsp in morning for 3 months =strengthen lungs and immune system

4) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with honey 15 mins before lunch and dinner =clears excess kapha, enhances digestion

5) HARIDRA KHANDA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night =acts like natural antihistamines, reduces sensitivity

BRAND MEDICINES= dabur, baidyanath, vaidyaratnam, Arya Vaidya sala, etC

EXTERNAL TREATMENT

1) NASYA THERAPY = with Anu taila , instill 2 drops in each nostril in morning empty stomach =clears sinuses, prevents mucus buildup and sneezing

2) STEAM INHALATION -use tulsi leaves, ajwain or eucalyptus oil in boiling water -inhlae 5-10 min, twice daily =liquifies mucus, opens airways

3) CHEST AND BACK MASSAGE -use warm dhanwantaram taila -light massage on chest and back followed by warm towel compress =Balances Vata, relieves tightness in chest

HOME REMEDIES

1) TULSI GINGER TEA -boil tulsi, ginger, black pepper and a pinch of turmeric in water =sip warm 2-3 times daily

2) HONEY AND CINNAMON -mix 1 tsp honey with a pinch of cinnamon =take at night to ease cough and inflammation

3) AJWAIN SMOKE INHALATION -sry roast ajwain, warp in cloth inhale =clears nasal congestion

4) WARM MUSTARD OIL + CAMPHOR CHEST RUB =mild chest rub during cold can relieve tightness

DIETARY CHANGES

AVOID -cold food and drinks -curd, ice creams, banana, cheese -fried or heavy meals -sour or fermented foods -pickles, vinegar etc

INCLUDE -warm soups- moong dal, rice water -garlic, ginger, tulsi, turmeric -old rice, barley, green gram -warm water with lemon and honey -ghee nourishes lungs and vata

YOGA AND PRANAYAM daily light yoga helps open lungs and balance doshas

-Bhujangasana= opens Chest and lungs -Matsyasana= expands breathing muscles -Setubandhasana= improves lung function

PRANAYAM -anulom vilom= balances breath, calms nervous system -Bhramari= reduces throat inflammation, calms mind -Ujjayi= strengthen lungs

Avoid kapalbhati during cold or sneezing bouts

If breathlessness still continues, by 2 months of above treatment, it’s important to rule out medical issues with -chest X-ray -spirometry=to check for asthma or airway obstruction -allergy testing- to identify triggers like dust , pollen etc -CBC, ESR= to check for infection or inflammation

Your condition is not dangerous, but it’s a signal from your body that your respiratory system is sensitive and needs care

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
