Adenomyosis and lymphatic swelling can be quite complex, reflecting potential imbalances in doshas and dhatus. Chronic adenomyosis typically involves a disruption of vata and kapha doshas, affecting rasa and rakta dhatus which govern the circulatory and lymphatic systems. The persistent lymphatic swelling might suggest accumulation of ama, or toxins, further burdening the body’s natural drainage pathways.
First, addressing the diet is crucial. The patient may benefit from a vata-pacifying diet, rich in warm, cooked, and easily digestible foods. Encourage consumption of spices like ginger, cumin, and turmeric, which can aid in balancing vata and enhancing agni for better digestion. Avoid cold, raw, and heavy foods that might aggravate kapha and contribute to the swelling.
Ayurvedic formulations such as Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa) can be beneficial for lymphatic system health. It supports decongestion and helps in reducing ama. The patient may take it as a decoction or capsule with the guidance of a trained practitioner. Also, consider using formulations like Ashokarishta to support female reproductive health and mitigate adenomyosis symptoms.
Regular abhyanga, or self-massage with warm sesame oil, may help stimulate lymphatic circulation and reduce swelling. Encourage practices like gentle yoga and pranayama, which promote circulation and balance vata.
Monitor symptoms closely, keeping in mind that severe swelling or acute symptoms need immediate medical attention to rule out any serious complications. Seek professional medical assistance if there is no improvement, as treatment may need to integrate more conventional medical interventions alongside Ayurvedic care. Always consult with a qualified healthcare provider familiar with the patient’s condition and history.
