Which medicine use to reduce tumor mass because surgery chemotherapy radiation therapy not possible - #31545

I understand you’re looking for guidance based on Ayurveda for your mother’s condition. Her situation, with a tumor in the cervix that has spread to the pelvic region, causing severe pain, leg swelling, and bowel issues, is very serious and requires a comprehensive, integrated approach.

Ayurveda can be a complementary therapy to help manage symptoms and improve her quality of life, but it should be done in conjunction with conventional medical treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery, as advised by her oncologist.

Ayurvedic Perspective on Cancer and Symptoms In Ayurveda, cancer is often described as Granthi (minor tumor) or Arbuda (major tumor). It’s seen as a profound imbalance of the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), with a particular emphasis on the aggravation of Vata and Kapha.

Kapha aggravation can lead to the overgrowth of tissues and the formation of the tumor mass itself.

Vata aggravation is responsible for the pain, dryness, and obstruction. The leg pain, swelling, and constipation are classic signs of a severely imbalanced Vata dosha.

The Ayurvedic approach would focus on three main areas:

Balancing the Doshas: Primarily Vata and Kapha, to reduce the growth and spread of the tumor and alleviate symptoms.

Detoxification (Shodhana): To remove toxins and accumulated waste (ama) that contribute to the disease.

Strengthening and Rejuvenating (Rasayana): To build the body’s strength and immunity (Ojas) to tolerate the disease and its treatments.

Managing Her Specific Symptoms with an Ayurvedic Approach

1. Abdominal Pain and Leg Pain/Swelling (Iliac Compression) The pain and swelling you describe are likely due to the tumor compressing nerves and blood vessels, including the iliac vein. This is a very serious complication. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this is a severe Vata imbalance, with obstruction (srotorodha).

Warm Oil Massage (Abhyanga): Gentle massage with warm, Vata-pacifying oils like sesame oil or medicated oils like Mahanarayana oil can help. This should be done very gently on the legs and back to soothe the nerves and improve circulation.

Lifestyle: Keeping the legs elevated when resting can help with the swelling. Simple, gentle movements (if she is able) can also help with circulation.

2. Constipation (Tumor Mass Attached to Intestine) The bowel obstruction is a critical issue that requires immediate medical attention. It’s essential that her doctors are managing this. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this is a type of Pureesha Avrita Vata, where the Vata dosha is blocked by a physical obstruction (the tumor mass).

Ayurveda emphasizes a gentle approach to constipation, especially in a case like this.

Diet: Focus on warm, cooked, and easily digestible foods. Avoid raw vegetables, dry foods, and cold drinks. Soups, stews, and well-cooked vegetables are excellent choices.

Hydration: Ensure she is drinking plenty of warm water.

Herbal Remedies: Certain mild laxatives and herbs can be used, but extreme care is needed due to the tumor’s location. A very gentle approach with something like Triphala

Abdominal Massage: A gentle, clockwise abdominal massage can help stimulate bowel movement, but this is a very sensitive area and should only be done with extreme caution.

The Importance of Integrated Care Given the severity of your mother’s condition, the most effective path forward is an integrated one.

Prioritize her conventional treatment: Ensure she is following all recommendations from her oncologist. This includes any procedures, chemotherapy, or radiation, which are critical for her survival and to reduce the size of the tumor.

Do not attempt to self-medicate or use any strong herbal remedies

The wrong herbs or therapies could interact with her medication or worsen her symptoms. The goal of Ayurveda in this situation is to support her body, reduce pain, and improve her quality of life alongside the primary medical treatment.

Weather the biopsy has done for this tumor?? How much the approx size of tumour?? VRIDDHIBHADIKA vati Triphala guggulu-1 tab each twice daily after food with lukewarm water Dashamoola aristha- Abhaya aristha-2 tsp each with equal quantity of water twice daily after food Haritaki churna-1 tsp with warm water at bedtime

Hellooo namaste.,

I can understand how painful and worrying this situation must be for you and your mother. Let me explain it clearly.

Your mother has a cervical tumor that has already spread in the pelvic area and is now pressing on nearby organs and blood vessels. Because of this:

•	The intestine is getting compressed, leading to difficulty in passing stools.
•	The pelvic veins are also compressed, which is causing swelling and pain in the legs.
•	Abdominal and pelvic pain is mainly due to the tumor pressing on nerves and tissues.

In such cases, this is not something that can be managed by Ayurveda alone. Immediate oncology (cancer specialist) care is absolutely necessary. Depending on the stage, they may suggest surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy to reduce the tumor load and relieve compression.

Ayurveda can support with • Pain relief and comfort measures • Digestive support to ease constipation (e.g., light diet, mild laxatives if advised) • General immunity and strength building

Please do not delay consulting a cancer specialist (oncologist) immediately. Since the tumor is already spreading and blocking stools, waiting longer will increase complications. Ayurveda can be supportive later for strength, digestion, and pain, but the primary and urgent step is modern medical cancer care.

Investigations needed right away: • MRI Pelvis / Abdomen (if not already done) • Biopsy / Histopathology (to confirm type and stage) • Blood tests (CBC, Renal & Liver function, Tumor markers if advised)

I want to reassure you you are doing the right thing by asking and seeking guidance early. Please take her to a good cancer hospital as the first step. After the emergency treatment is started, I can guide you with supportive Ayurvedic medicines for pain, digestion, and strength.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika
