HELLO,
After your ear surgery you experienced vertigo- a spinning sensation, imbalance, nausea, and difficulty walking
This happens because the inner ear controls both hearing and balance. During or after surgery , the inner ear or the nerves that connect it to the brain can get irritated or temporarily inflamed
As a result -the vestibular system becomes disturbed -the brain receives confused signals about movement -you feel dizzy, off balance, and sometime nauseous Over time, most people improve- but if dizziness persist for months, it means your body’s balance mechanism hasn’t fully healed, and the nervous system remains weak
In Ayurveda, this condition is related to a disturbance of Vata dosha, mainly the subtype called Prana vata (controls brain and sense organs) and vyaana vata (controls movement and ciruclation) -vata aggravation happens after surgery a form of trauma, fasting, or weakness -pitta may also be aggravated due to inflammation or surgical heat -kapha can become blocked, leading to heaviness and ear congestion
In Ayurveda vertigo is compared with 'Bhrama" (giddiness) or “prasveda-bhrama” (vertigo with sweating and nausea)

Balancing issues and dizziness following ear surgery may result from disturbances within the inner ear, affecting vata dosha, potentially causing imbalance. Ayurveda can offer support to alleviate symptoms and improve overall well-being. Implementing a few tailored lifestyle and dietary changes might be benefecial for you.
Firstly, dietary considerations are vital. Favor warm, cooked foods that are easy to digest. Opt for meals that are grounding and nourishing, such as soups, stews, and rice dishes. Avoid excessive cold, raw, or heavy foods that might disturb the vata dosha further. Including herbs like ginger and turmeric can assist digestion and reduce inflammation.
Incorporating daily routine practices can further support balance. Begin the day with oil massage—Abhyanga—using warm sesame oil, focusing on the head and feet to pacify vata. Follow with a warm shower to relax muscles and improve circulation. Practicing gentle yoga or tai chi may help improve balance and coordination slowly reinforcing steadines in your body.
Herbal remedies like Ashwagandha and Brahmi may benefit nerve function and mental clarity. Preparing a concoction of Brahmi leaves, consumed in the morning, might assist in grounding the nervous system. However, consult with an Ayurvedic professional before starting any herbs.
Additionally, prioritize adequate and regular rest. Ensure a consistent sleep schedule with about 7-8 hours of rest daily, as improper rest can aggravate vertigo symptoms.
Remember to periodically consult your healthcare provider, particularly if there’s no improvement or if symptoms worsen. While Ayurveda can complement treatments, medical supervision remains crucial, especially post-surgery.
