AVP Dhanwantharam Mezhupakam can indeed be beneficial for joint issues, particularly those linked to vata imbalances, which align closely with the symptoms you’ve described. If you’re experiencing throbbing pain, it’s possible that vata dosha has aggravated in your joints, causing dryness and inflammation. This specific formulation contains herbs like Dhanwantharam and others, traditionally used to alleviate joint pain, improve flexibility, and reduce inflammation.
In practice, this oil is often used for external application rather than internal use. You would typically warm a small amount of the oil and gently massage it into the affected area. This can be done once or twice daily, ideally before taking a warm bath or shower. The warmth helps the oil penetrate into the tissues, providing relief and nurturing the joint areas. Consistent use over several weeks may offer significant benefits.
Regarding digestion, while Dhanwantharam Mezhupakam isn’t directly indicated for digestive issues, its effect on vata could indirectly support agni, or digestive fire, as balancing vata may reduce abdominal bloating or discomfort sometimes associated with vata disturbance.
Before starting, check if you have any allergies to the ingredients. It’s generally safe when used externally, but if skin irritation occurs, discontinue use. Also, consider discussing with an Ayurvedic practitioner to confirm that it aligns well with your unique prakriti and current health condition.
While using Ayurvedic approaches, keep your doctor informed, especially as you may need their guidance if the pain escalates. It’s also crucial not to solely depend on this if symptoms persist or worsen, as it might require additional or different interventions.
