HELLO HITESH,
You are suffering from chronic bronchitis for more than 20 years . In Ayurveda this resembles “Tamaka Shwaas” (a type of respiratory disorder) and “kaphaja rasa” (chronic cough)
WHY IT HAPPENS -your throat and lungs get easily filled with excess kapha (mucus) -your digestion and metabolism may be weak, which causes ama (toxic residue) -seasonal changes, cold food, dust, or infection trigger inflammation -beacuse of age 65 years, immunity is naturally weaker, so repeated episodes come
SYMPTOMS YOU DECRIBED MATCH PERFECTLY -Sore throat -> watering nose-> throat congestion -> cough-> severe coughing bouts
GOALS OF TREATMENT -Stop the acute attack at an early stage before it reaches severe coughing -reduce frequency and severity of yearly episodes -strengthen lungs and immunity long-term -remove kapha+ ama from body and restore balance -treat associated skin itching linked to blood impurities and weak immunity
INTERNAL TREATMENT
1) FOR ACUTE EPISODES (early sore throat, congestion)
-SHITOPALADI CHURNA + TALISADI CHURNA= 1 tsp with honey twice daily after meals =loosens phlegm, reduces cough
-TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with honey before meals =improves digestion, burns ama, clears mucus
2) FOR LONG TERM MAINTENANCE (minimum 3-6 months)
-CHYWANPRASHA= 1 tsp daily with warm milk =builds immunity, nourishes lungs
-VASA AVALEHA= 1 tsp twice daily =very effective in bronchitis , reduces inflammation
-SHWASA KUTHAR RAS= 1 tab twice daily if attacks are frequent
3) FOR ITCHING SKIN (pruritus)
-NEEM CAPSULE= 1 daily =cleanses blood, reduces itching
-ALOE VERA JUICE= 2 tbsp daily on empty stomach =cools system, helps skin
EXTERNAL TREATMENTS
1) STEAM INHALATION= Add ajwain seeds or eucalyptus oil to burning water-> inhale 5-10 min. helps congestion
2) GARGLING= warm water + turmeric + salt, twice daily in sore throat
3) MASSAGE FOR ITCHING SKIN= coconut oil mixed with a pinch of camphor, apply at night
HOME REMEDIES -Chew 4-5 tulsi leaves daily -take turmeric milk at night -mix honey + ginger juice 1 tsp each- twice daily for cough -roast ajwain seeds, tie in cloth, and inhale fumes- helps blocked nose
DIET -favour=warm soups, light khichdi, ginger tea, black pepper, garlic, turmeric, old rice, green gram -AVOID= curd, banana, cold drinks, fried/oily food, heavy sweets, refrigerated food, smoking, exposure to cold wind -drink only warm water
LIFESTYLE -maintain regular daily routine, avoid day sleep -keep chest and throat warm scarf in winter -avoid dust, polluted, smoky areas -gentle oil massage sesame oil once a week to strengthen body
YOGA ASANAS -bhujangasana -ardha matsyendrasana -setu bandhasana =all help open the chest and improve lung capacity
PRANAYAM -anulom vilom= balances energy, clears lungs -bhramari= calms throat and mind -kapalbhati= only very gentle, not forceful, to avoid breathlessness
-Your condition is chronic but manageable -Ayurveda focuses on strengthening immunity, reducing kapha, and preventing recurrence not just temporary relief
DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU
DR. MAITRI ACHARYA
