Doctors’ responses
Nause , feeling not tasty post stent removal might be due to antibiotics , Give him Hingwastaka churna-1/2 tsp twice daily after food Sithophaladi churna- 1/4 th tsp with honey after food CHYWANPRASH- 1 tsp once daily Avoid oily spicy heavy foods Khichdi dal soft vegetables and warm soups
Impaired Agni (Digestive Fire): The lack of taste, nausea, and poor appetite can point to a weakened digestive fire and the accumulation of Ama (toxins/undigested material).
Vitiation of Kapha and Pitta Doshas: Nausea and lack of taste can involve an imbalance of Kapha (linked to mucus/sluggishness) or Pitta (linked to acidity/bile). The cough also points to a likely Kapha or Vata imbalance in the respiratory system.
Post-Procedure Weakness: Any medical procedure, including stent removal, and the prior cold/cough can cause general physical weakness and affect digestion and immunity.
General Ayurvedic Home Suggestions (Supportive, Not a Cure)
While waiting for a consultation, you can try some very gentle supportive measures:
For Lack of Taste (Aruchi) and Vomiting Sensation (Chhardi):
Ginger and Lemon: Offer a small piece of fresh ginger (about 1/4 inch) to chew slowly with a pinch of rock salt (sendha namak) 10-15 minutes before meals. This is a classic Agni stimulant.
Light Diet: Give very light, warm, and easily digestible foods, like:
Moong Dal Khichdi: Made with very little ghee and mild spices (turmeric, cumin, coriander).
Vegetable Broth: Warm, clear soup made from mild vegetables.
Warm Water: Encourage him to sip on warm water throughout the day.
Spiced Water: Boil water with a pinch of cumin (jeera), coriander (dhania), and fennel (saunf) seeds. Let it cool slightly and ask him to sip this water, which can help digestion and taste.
Mint/Cardamom: Chewing a few fresh mint leaves (Pudina) or sucking on a piece of cardamom (Elaichi) can help with nausea and taste.
For the Cough:
Honey and Ginger Juice: Mix 1 teaspoon of fresh ginger juice with 1 teaspoon of honey. He can have this mixture 2-3 times a day. Note: If he has diabetes, use this remedy sparingly and monitor blood sugar, or consult his doctor.
Turmeric Milk (Haldi Doodh): Give him a glass of warm milk with 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder at night. Turmeric is anti-inflammatory and helps with the respiratory system.
Tulsi Kadha (Herbal Decoction): Boil a few Tulsi (Holy Basil) leaves, a small piece of ginger, and 2-3 black peppercorns in water. Strain and give it to him warm, maybe with a little honey.
Crucial Next Steps: Consult his Cardiologist: Since your father had a stent removed, any new or persistent symptom, especially poor eating, needs to be reported to the doctor managing his cardiac health to rule out any complications. Do not stop any prescribed allopathic medication.

Following stent removal, it’s not uncommon for the body to experience various reactions, which can also affect the sense of taste and induce nausea. The symptoms your father is experiencing, like tastelessness and nausea, could be attributed to vitiated doshas, especially Pitta and Kapha imbalance that may have exacerbated due to prior cold and cough. In Ayurveda, realigning the doshas can help in restoring normalcy.
To deal with nausea and enhance taste, consider the following: Start the day with a well-boiled ginger tea—just a few slices of ginger boiled in water for 5-10 minutes can stimulate digestion and enhance taste. Add a teaspoon of honey once it’s lukewarm. Meanwhile, incorporating agni enhancing spices like cumin, coriander, and fennel in meals can help improve digestive fire. These should be added to his regular food or consumed as a warm, spiced buttermilk drink in the mid-afternoon.
Focus on light, easily digestible meals such as moong dal khichdi or rice gruel. Ensure consumption of warm, cooked, and mildly seasoned foods to avoid further aggravating Pitta dosha. Avoid cold, raw, or spicy food items as they can further upset the balance. Between meals, sipping warm water helps in balancing Kapha and aids in digestion.
Perform gentle pratimarsha nasya using Anu taila—a couple of drops in each nostril at bedtime can also help alleviate any persisting cold or cough symptoms, promoting clearer respiratory health.
However, if symptoms of nausea persist or worsen, or if there are other concerns about the side effects post-procedure, it is crucial that you consult with the treating physician immediately for appropriate medical evaluation. While these Ayurvedic measures can support recovery, they should not replace conventional medical advice.

HELLO PRABHARKAR,
After a stent removal (whether from kidney, bile duct,or heart ), the body goes through a lot -medications (especially antibiotics, painkillers, or anesthesia) can disturb digestion -stress, fear , or weakness after the procedure can affect mental and physical balance -if he had a cold or cough before removal, it means the Kapha dosha was already high -after the procedure, this disturbance affects the digestive fire
In Ayurveda, this weak digestive fire leads to -mandagni (weak digestion) -ama formation (accumulation of undigested toxins) -aruchi (loss of taste or interest in food) -utklesha (nausea or vomiting feeling) -kasa (cough)
This is a mixed imbalance of vata (due to invasive procedure), kapha (due to cold and mucus), and pitta (due to medicines and inflamation )
TREATMENT GOALS -rekindle agni -remove toxins -balance vata kapha -restore strength -prevent recurrence

2) MILD STEAM THERAPY -after massage with hot water bath =helps remove ama and improves body flexibility
3) NASYA= 2 drops of Anu taila in each nostril daily in morning after steam =clears kapha, improve taste and smell, relieves cold related symptoms

-The condition is reversible and common after stent-related procedures -In Ayurveda, the focus is not just on removing the symptoms but reviving agni, balancing doshas, and strengthening the system from within -It usually take 3-4 weeks for complete recovery with consistent diet, lifestyle and mild herbal support -continue to keep him mentally relaxed and cheerful- emotional calmness plays a big role in recovery

The feeling of nausea and loss of taste after a stent procedure can be concerning, and given that these symptoms, along with the residual cough, may be interlinked with the procedure and recent illness, it’s essential to first consider if these are side effects that need urgent medical evaluation. If the symptoms are severe or persist, promptly consulting his cardiovascular specialist or primary healthcare provider to ensure his recovery is on track remains crucial.
While he is under medical supervision for these concerns, there are some Siddha-Ayurvedic approaches that might help ease his comfort. Taste and digestive issues like nausea are often tied to imbalances in the doshas, particularly pitta and vata. Elevating digestive agni could help with appetite and reduce nausea. Consider starting with basic dietary adjustments:
1. Incorporate small amounts of ajwain or cumin seeds before meals to stimulate appetite and digestion. Chewing on a pinch could increase digestive fire slightly and aid nausea.
2. Encourage sipping warm water mixed with a little fresh ginger juice throughout the day unless otherwise advised by his doctor. This can pacify any vata imbalances and alleviate cough and cold symptoms.
3. With meals, include a few drops of freshly squeezed lemon juice to revive tastebuds and improve saliva secretion.
For cough, using steam inhalations with eucalyptus oil might help clear nasal congestion and soothe the respiratory tract. However, if breathing difficulties occur, get professional medical assistance without delay.
Before implementing these, verifying with his healthcare provider is wise given his recent procedure and current symptoms. This ensures these remedies align with his medical status and prescribed treatments, prioritizing safety and effective recovery.
