Hello Ketan, have you evaluated your son’s case from an ophthalmologist and the neurologist? Also please give details of his eye examination.
I’m sorry to hear about your child’s condition. To provide better guidance, I would need more details, such as:
What specific vision issues is your child experiencing (e.g., blurry vision, difficulty focusing, etc.)? Has your child undergone any neurological assessments or tests? If so, what were the findings? Is your child undergoing any current treatments or therapies for the neurological condition or vision issues? Are there any other symptoms related to the brain injury, such as developmental delays or motor skill issues? Once I have more details, I can suggest appropriate Ayurvedic remedies and therapies that may support your child’s overall health and well-being.
I’m really sorry to hear about your child’s condition. It’s a lot to handle especially since he’s just a little one. In Ayurveda, vision and brain function is kinda closely linked, and there’s several approaches we mix to help improve situations like this. But remember, combining Ayurveda with modern medical advice is essential.
Firstly, maintaining a balanced Vata dosha is crucial, since it’s often involved in nervous system health. For the little one, gentle abhyanga, or oil massage, can be helpful. Use warm sesame oil – it’s nourishing and comforting. You can do it a few times a week, but don’t massage the crown of the head too much, as it’s sensitive in infants.
Then, let’s focus on diet. If your kiddo’s starting to eat solids, make sure his food is warm, mushy and easy on the stomach. Avoid anything too dry or cold. Stewed apples, oatmeal, or moong dal soup are light and nutritious. These support agni, or the digestive fire, which in turn strengthens dhatus (tissues).
There’s herbs like Brahmi and Shankhapushpi, traditionally used for supporting brain function. But be super cautious with herbs and always consult with a pediatrician or trained Ayurvedic practitioner for exact dosages. Safety first, ya know?
Engage him in sensory activities to gently stimulate vision. Use brightly colored toys or contrasting patterns at a safe distance to encourage eye activity.
But most importantly, keep in touch with your doctor to monitor any changes. Ayurveda is great for support but always prioritize any critical medical advice you’re given. I trust you already are, but just a gentle reminder to make sure he’s regularly seeing an ophthalmologist and a neurologist, to get the best outcome possible.
It’s a journey, I know, and sometimes feels tough, but take each day as it comes and take care of yourself too. All the best with everything!
