Left puj calculus - #3190

Anonymous

I was recently diagnosed with a left PUJ calculus during a scan for abdominal pain. Can anyone explain what left PUJ calculus is and how Ayurveda can help manage it? The stone is about 6 mm, and my doctor suggested I wait and see if it passes naturally. However, I’m looking for Ayurvedic remedies to speed up the process and reduce the discomfort. Does Ayurveda offer treatments that specifically target left PUJ calculus, or is it more about overall kidney health? If you’ve dealt with a left PUJ calculus, what remedies or therapies helped you? Did you use herbal medicines, or were there specific dietary recommendations that worked? I’d also like to know if panchakarma therapies are useful in such cases.

A left PUJ (pelviureteric junction) calculus is a kidney stone located where the renal pelvis (the area where urine collects) meets the ureter (the tube leading from the kidney to the bladder). A 6 mm stone is on the smaller side and might pass naturally, but if there’s discomfort or difficulty in passing, Ayurvedic remedies can help facilitate the process and alleviate symptoms. Ayurveda typically focuses on reducing the stone's size, improving kidney function, and promoting urinary tract health. Herbs like Punarnava, Gokshura, and Pashanbheda are known for their ability to support kidney health and may help dissolve small stones. Increasing fluid intake, particularly with herbal decoctions like barley water or coconut water, can help flush out toxins and stones. A diet rich in hydrating fruits and vegetables, while avoiding excessive salt, spicy foods, and acidic substances, is recommended to prevent stone formation. Panchakarma therapies, such as Virechana (therapeutic purgation) or Swedana (sweating therapy), may also help detoxify the body and relieve symptoms associated with kidney stones. However, it’s important to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting any specific treatment to ensure it’s tailored to your individual health needs.

A left PUJ (Pelvi-Ureteric Junction) calculus refers to a kidney stone located where the renal pelvis (the area where urine collects in the kidney) connects to the ureter. Stones of this size (6 mm) may cause discomfort or pain and might pass naturally, though they can also block urine flow. Ayurveda offers several remedies to manage kidney stones, focusing on herbal treatments, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments to help dissolve stones and ease symptoms. Herbs like Gokshura, Punarnava, Pashanbheda, and Chandraprabha Vati are known for their diuretic, anti-inflammatory, and stone-dissolving properties. Drinking plenty of water and avoiding foods that increase Pitta (spicy, acidic, or fried foods) can also support the process. Panchakarma therapies like Virechana (purgation) and Basti (medicated enemas) may be helpful in detoxifying the body and improving kidney function, though they should be done under expert supervision. While Ayurvedic treatments can support stone removal and ease symptoms, it’s important to consult with both an Ayurvedic and a medical doctor to ensure a balanced approach.
