HELLO,
Chronic runny nose and sneezing, especially when it happens repeatedly , is most commonly linked with vata kapha imbalance and often falls under a condition similar to vataja Pratishyaya or kaphaja Pratishyaya in Ayurveda. -vata governs movement and air flow -kapha governs mucus, structure and lubrication
WHEN THESE DOSHAS ARE AGGRAVATED -kapha increases overnight, accumulating in the sinuses and nasal passages -vata tries to expel it, leading to repeated sneezing in the morning
POSSIBLE TRIGGERS -sudden exposure to cold in morning -dust mites in pillows or bed -weather changes -eating cold or mucus forming foods-curd, banana, milk etc -low immunity or weak digestion
GOALS OF TREATMENT -balance kapha and vata doshas -strengthen the respiratory tract and nasal mucosa -improve immunity -improve digestion to reduce toxin formation -prevent recurrence through lifestyle and dietary discipline
TREATMENT INTERNALLY
1) SHITOPALADI CHURNA + HONEY= 1/2 tsp + 1 tsp honey twice daily after meals for 4 weeks =acts as expectorant, anti allergic, and improves immunity
2) HARIDRAKHANDA= 1 tsp twice daily with warm water for 6 weeks =anti-allergic, reduces sneezing and itching
3) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with warm water before meals for 4 weeks =improves digestion and reduces kapha
4) CHYAWANPRASHA= 1 tsp on empty stomach in morning for 3 months = rasayana to build immunity
5) AMALAKI CAPSULES= 500 mg at night for 8 weeks =builds immunity, reduces stress
NASYA THERAPY -SHAD BINDU TAILA= 4 drops in each nostril daily morning after bath for 30-45 days =lubricates nasal passages, open sinuses, detoxifieskapha from head
-STEAM INHALATION= water+ turmeric or ajwain seeds for 1-2 times/day =opens sinuses and melts kapha
-WARM OIL MASSAGE= sesame oil on face, neck and chest for 3 times/week =improves circulation, reduces vata
DIET TO BE FOLLOWED -warm, cooked food= moong dal, rice, cooked veggies - turmeric, ginger, black pepper - herbal teas- tulsi, licorice, cinnamon - cow ghee - lukewarm water throughout the day.
AVOID -cold raw food -ice creams, cold drinks, curd(esp at night) - bananas, oranges, guava -fried, oily, or stale food - milk + salt combination
PRANAYAM AND YOGA -anulom vilom= 10 min daily, balances prana, clears nasal blockages - bhramari= 5 min, soothes sinuses and nerves - jal neti= 2-3 timmes/week, physically cleans nasal passages -suryanamskar =5 rounds, boosts immunity , circulation
HOME REMEDIES -turmeric+ honey paste(1:1)= 1/2 tsp twice a day - tulsi-ginger decocotion= 1 cup daily -steam inhalation with ajwain twice daily - ghee drop in nostrils at night for dryness
LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIONS -wake up early -do gentle face and neck massage before bath -avoid cold exposure to head and chest especially in morning -wash bed lines, pillows, curtains frequently to avoid dust -drink warm water throughout the day -avoid daytime naps
EXPECTED TIMELINE
DURATION 2-4 WEEK= reduced sneezing, runny nose 2-3 month= less recurrence 4-6 months= long term control, tissue healing
DURING SEASONAL PREVENTION - repeat nasya, rasayana pre-winter and spring= prevent relapse
If Constipation or digestion is impaired, begin with TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp at night -for post nasal drip+ sinus pressure= mix of trikatu churna+ honey -avoid suppressing natural urges(like sneezing, yawing, burping)- worsen vata kapha disorders
Chronic sneezing runny nose is not merely a nasal issue; it reflects deeper immune and Doshi imbalances
Ayurvedic approach is not symptom-suppressive, but aims to correct root causes by aligning digestion, immunity, and nervous system
Consistency in following the protocol, especially in lifestyle and diet, gives long term and sustainable relief
Avoid overuse of antihistamines or nasal sprays which only provide temporary relief and suppress natural responses
DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU

For your recurring runny nose and sneezing issues, these symptoms are often linked to an imbalance in the Kapha dosha, which can lead to excess mucus and a damp, cold state in the body. Since you’ve found relief with Swasakalpa, it indicates that your body responds well to treatments that balance Kapha and support respiratory health. Recurrent issues suggest it might be helpful to incorporate consistent lifestyle and dietary changes along with episodic herbal support.
Firstly, monitor your diet to reduce Kapha aggravating foods like dairy, oily and fried items, and cold beverages or foods. Focus on warm, light, and easily digestible meals. Including more cooked vegetables, sweet fruits in moderation, and warm spices like ginger, black pepper, and turmeric can be beneficial. Making a restorative soup with these ingredients, including garlic for its properties to clear excess mucus, may provide relief.
Regular exercise also stimulates agni and helps keep doshas in balance. A daily routine of yoga or brisk walking might be beneficial in keeping mucus levels balanced. Breathing exercises like pranayama, especially nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), is supportive for respiratory health by clearing nasal passages and increasing lung capacity.
Consider setting up a humidifier in your space if the air is dry, which can sometimes make symptoms worse. Steam inhalation with a few drops of eucalyptus or mint oil tends to help in clearing nasal congestion, practice it few times a week or whenever you feel congested.
For a more structured approach, returning to Swasakalpa may be option but alongside, consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner to tailor a personalized plan, potentially including other herbs and formulation adjustments. If symptoms ever worsen suddenly or you experience difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately. Integrative monitoring can ensure both safety and optimal relief.
Start with- 1. Dasamoolakaduthrayam Kwath 20ml-0-20ml with 20ml water before food 2. Gud Marich Yoga (Take Jaggery+Kali marich in equal quantity and mix it,) 3gm twice daily after food 3. Halin drop capsule steam inhalation twice a day 4. Anu Taila Nasya 2-2 drop in each nostril morning and evening
