Hello Nuraan ji,

I can understand your symptoms — severe headache, eye and hand itching, dry mouth, excessive thirst, nosebleeds, poor sleep, dizziness, and imbalance but dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅FIRST AND FOREMOST (Important)

Since your symptoms include nosebleeds, dizziness, and severe headaches, it’s wise to check for:

👉Blood pressure (BP) 👉Blood sugar level 👉Hemoglobin (for anemia) 👉Eye pressure (for glaucoma)

These can help rule out other physical causes while you follow Ayurvedic therapy.

✅IMMEDIATE HOME REMEDIES

✅ Cooling for Pitta

Mix 1 tsp coriander seed powder or soak 1 tsp coriander seeds overnight, strain, and drink the water in the morning.

Drink Amla juice (10–15 ml) daily with equal water — it cools and purifies blood.

Coconut water once daily helps reduce thirst and dryness.

✅ Headache and Burning Relief

Apply Sandalwood paste or rose water + chandan on the forehead twice a day.

Apply rose water or cow’s milk compress to the eyes for 10 minutes daily.

✅AYURVEDIC INTERNAL MEDICATION

1 Sutshekhar Ras 1-0-1 after food– for burning headache, acidity

2 Sarivasava 20 ml with equal water after food – for calm mind, better sleep

3 Brahmi Vati (Gold) 1 tablet after lunch – strengthens nerves, reduces dizziness

4 Kamdudha Ras (with Mukta) 1-0-1 with milk before food – cooling and thirst-reducing

5 Ashwagandha capsule 1 capsule with warm milk – (improves sleep and stability)

✅ Nasya (Nasal Therapy)

Put 2 drops of Anu Taila or pure cow ghee in each nostril morning & evening. ( Helps with headache, nasal dryness, dizziness, and sleep improvement.)

✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

Sleep by 10:30 PM — irregular or late sleep increases Vata. Avoid direct sunlight, loud noise, long screen time. Stay hydrated — sip room-temperature water frequently. Avoid anger, stress, and overthinking — they increase Pitta.

✅DIET MODIFICATION

✅ Include:

Ghee, milk, moong dal, pumpkin, bottle gourd, cucumber, pomegranate, coconut, coriander, and rice. Amla, fennel, and cardamom in diet.

❌ Avoid

Spicy, sour, fried, or oily food. Pickles, vinegar, fermented food. Strong tea, coffee, alcohol, and smoking.

✅YOGA AND RELAXATION

Anulom Vilom – 10 minutes (balances Vata & Pitta) Bhramari Pranayama – 5 minutes (relieves headache & tension) Shavasana – before sleep to calm mind

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO NURAN,

You have several symptoms that seems connected -repeated headaches that are sometimes so strong you cannot see -itching of eyes and hands -dry mouth ad constant thrist - nosebleeds from time to time -poor sleep , dizziness, and imbalance

All these are signs that your body’s internal balance- what Ayurveda calls the doshas- has become disturbed

In Ayurveda -Pitta dosha seems high- causing burning, thirst, dryness, nosebleeds and headaches -Vata dosha is also disturbed- causing dizziness, insomnia, and imbalance -Rakta dhatu is affected by excess pitta, which leads to itching and bleeding

So, the basic disturbance is a vata-pitta imbalance with rakta dushti (impure blood)

In modern terms, this may leads to -dehydration or electrolyte imbalance -high blood pressure -allergic tendencies - stress, poor sleep, and overheating of the body -possible blood sugar disturbance or liver irritation

TREATMENT GOALS -cool and calm the excess pitta -stabilize and nourish vata -purify and strengthen blood -relieve headache and dryness - prevent recurrence by long term dietary and lifestyle correction

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) SUTSEKHAR RAS= 1 tab twice daily with ghee for 6 weeks =classic remedy for pitta type headaches, acidity and dizziness cools and stabilize digestion

2) BRAHMI VATI= 1 tab twice daily with water for 8 weeks = calms mind , improve sleep, supports nerves and balance

3) PATHYADI KWATHA= 20 ml with equal water twice daily before meals for 8 weeks = main formula for chronic headache and eye problem

4) SARIVADYASAV = 20 ml with equal water after meals twice daily for 3 months =blood purifier, reduces itching and thirst , cools pitta

5) KHADIRARISHTA= 20 ml with equal water twice daily after meals =excellent for skin itching and blood impuriirtes for 2 months

GHEE WITH MILK= 1 tsp ghee in warm milk at bedtime= nourishes body , calms vata, improves sleep

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) HEAD OIL MASSAGE= CHANDAN BALA LAKSHADI TAILA -gently massage the scalp before bath 3-4 times a week =releives headache, cools pitta, and improves sleep

2) NASYA THERAPY= 2 drops of Anu taila In each nostril in the morning =prevents dryness and nosebleeds

DIET -freshly cooked, mildly spiced meals -cooling foods= ghee, milk, coconut water, cucumber, bottle gourd, pumpkin, moong dal, sweet fruits- pomegranate, grapes, watermelon -Whole grains like rice, wheat, barley -use ghee as the main fat- it nourishes and cools infused water -amla in small daily doses juice or powder- antioxidant and cooling

AVOID -spicy, sour, salty, ad fried foods -excess tea, coffee, alcohol, and red meat - long fasting or skipping meals -overheating, sun exposure, and staying up late at night

DAILY ROUTINE -maintain regular sleep 10 pm- 6am - avoid screens and bright light before bed - stay hydrated throughout the day with oil not ice cold water - avoid anger, arguments, and heat exposure

YOGA ASANAS - do gentle, cooling postures -shavasana -balasana -viparita karani -sukhasana

Avoid heavy, inverted or heat producing poses like surya namaskar in the sun

PRANAYAM -Sheetali and sheetkari= cooling breath techniques -Nadi sodhana= balances both sides of body and calms mind

HOME REMEDIES -coriander- fennel water= soak 1 tsp each overnight in 1 glass water, strain and drink in morning- reduces heat, thirst, and acidity -Aloe vera juice= 2 tbsp juice in 1 cup water on empty stomach-> cooling and purifying for blood -Sandalwood paste on forehead- apply durning headache, it draws out heat and calms nerves -Rose water= add few drops in drinking water or wash eyes with diluted rose water for itching -coconut water or buttermilk= hydrating and pitta pacifying drinks for daytime

Measure blood pressure as headache and nose bleedings liked with high bp

Your body is signalling that it is overheating, dehydrated and depleted- mentally not physically. This happens from stress, irregular lifestyle poor sleep or overheating foods

By following this Ayurvedic approach -you cool and cleanse the system -nourish and stabilize nerves and mind -purify blood remove itching and bleeding tendency - re establish natural rhythm of sleep, thirst, and digestion

The goal is not just to remove symptoms but to restore harmony between body, mind and environment

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

Your symptoms suggest a possible imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas, according to Ayurvedic philosophy. The dry mouth, persistent thirst, and headaches are often associated with Pitta, while dizziness and lack of balance can be related to Vata disturbances. These symptoms could also indicate an underlying medical condition. Immediate action for safety should be taken; consult a healthcare professional as soon as possible to rule out serious issues, especially due to the nosebleeds and severe headaches.

For managing symptoms, consider integrating Ayurvedic methods into your routine, start with a Pitta-pacifying diet. Consume cooling foods such as cucumbers, sweet fruits like melons, and fresh coconut water. Avoid spicy, oily, and fried foods that can aggravate Pitta. Try sipping on coriander tea to help soothe the internal heat.

To balance Vata, create a regular routine with set times for sleeping and waking to help calm the excess Vata energy. Warm, oil massages using sesame oil can be calming and grounding, applied gently to the scalp and body before a warm bath or shower. This might assist with your headaches and improve your sleep quality too.

Pranayama, or breath control practices, such as sheetali (cooling breath), can help reduce your bodily heat and work on your stress levels. This should be performed in a comfortable seated position for a few minutes daily. Ensure adequate hydration, too, but be cautious not to over-consume water in a short time; rather, sip throughout the day.

Keeping a diary of your dietary, sleep, and symptom patterns could be insightful when consulting with your health practitioner to provide a comprehensive understanding of your condition. Immediate medical advice is crucial for the severe headaches, nosebleeds, and dizziness to address any critical, potentially dangerous issues.

It sounds like you’re experiencing a combination of symptoms that include persistent headaches, itching, dry mouth, excessive thirst, nosebleeds, and balance issues. These could be due to a complex interplay of factors, including possible dosha imbalances.

In Siddha-Ayurvedic terms, these symptoms suggest a prominent imbalance of Pitta dosha, possibly leading to excess heat in the body. To begin addressing this, consider incorporating cooling and soothing practices into your daily routine.

First, prioritize a Pitta-pacifying diet. Favor fresh, cooling foods such as cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens. Avoid spicy and fried foods, as well as overly sour or salty dishes. Ensure you’re well-hydrated with water and cooling herbal teas like coriander or fennel.

For your headache and balance issues, try adding a consistent and gentle yoga routine focusing on calming and grounding poses. Pranayama, especially Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), can help balance energies. Incorporating meditation can also stabilize both mind and body.

Head and facial massages with cooling oils such as coconut or Brahmi oil can help soothe headaches and reduce heat. Do this daily in the evening to promote relaxation and better sleep.

Given the severity of your symptoms like frequent nosebleeds and severe headaches, it is important to see a healthcare professional promptly. These symptoms might indicate serious conditions like high blood pressure or other medical issues that need immediate attention. It’s crucial not to delay meeting with a doctor to rule out any underlying health problems.
