Hello I get why you’re worried. Dealing with pain, inflammation, numbness, and that weird tingling in your fingertips—especially at 64—can be stressful, and the idea of surgery doesn’t help.
Let’s talk through this together, step by step, so you know what your options are and what actually helps.
YOUR CONCERN
–You’re 64. Your fingertips hurt, feel inflamed, and sometimes go numb or tingle. – Right now, you’re taking Balaguduchyadi Kashayam and you want to know if you’re using it right, if there are other Ayurvedic treatments that might help, and whether you can skip surgery.
👉About Balaguduchyadi Kashayam:
Yes, this medicine fits your symptoms. Here’s how to take it: in the morning, before you eat, measure out 15 to 20 ml of the kashayam, mix it with the same amount of warm water, and drink it on an empty stomach.
- It works by calming inflammation, reducing Vata-Pitta aggravation, and easing nerve pain or burning.
What’s causing all this?
–From an Ayurvedic perspective, numbness and tingling point to a Vata imbalance, while pain and inflammation suggest Pitta is involved too. — This combination can show up as Vata Vyadhi, early joint issues (Sandhigata Vata), or nerve problems (Snayugata/Nadi Dushti). –Modern doctors might call this cervical spondylosis, peripheral neuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, or just age-related nerve changes. –Surgery usually only comes up if nerve compression gets really bad or keeps getting worse.
Extra Ayurvedic support you can add:
1. Maharasnadi Kashayam: 15 ml with warm water in the evening before food. Great for nerve pain, stiffness, and inflammation.
2. Yogaraja Guggulu: 1 tablet, twice a day after meals. Lowers inflammation, helps your joints and nerves.
3. Ashwagandha Churna: Half a teaspoon with warm milk at night. Strengthens nerves and helps prevent more degeneration.
4. Ksheerabala 101 (capsule or oil for oral use, but only if your blood sugar and blood pressure are okay): Excellent for numbness and neuropathy—
EXTERNAL CARE
–Massage your fingertips and hands gently twice a day with Ksheerabala Taila or Dhanwantaram Taila. –Afterward, use some warm water fomentation. This boosts circulation, feeds your nerves, and can bring sensation back.
Panchakarma—if you can, it’s worth it:
Before you even think about surgery, try therapies like Matra Basti or Ksheerabala Basti. If you have neck pain, Nasya helps. Many people avoid surgery with the right Panchakarma treatment.
DIET AND LIFESTYLE
–Eat warm, fresh meals. Add a little ghee, milk, moong dal, and rice. –Turmeric with ghee is also great. –Skip cold foods and drinks, cut back on tea and coffee, avoid staying up late, and try not to do the same hand motions over and over.
When do you actually need surgery?
Think about surgery only if the numbness keeps getting worse, you notice muscle weakness or finger deformity, your grip strength drops, or you’ve tried good treatment for 8–12 weeks and nothing’s changing. There’s no rush unless things are really declining fast.
Keep taking Balaguduchyadi Kashayam in the morning. Add the other recommended remedies one at a time. Try the local oil massages and, if you can, get Panchakarma. Check in with yourself after 6 to 8 weeks and see what’s changed.

Dr RC BAMS MS
With yograj gugulu 2 bd Take cow ghee 5 ml at empty stomach at morning
Balaguduchyadi kashayam can be taken in the morning before food diluted with equal quantity of warm water , It helps in inflammation nerve irritation and vata related pain.
Fingertip pain numbness and tingling usually indicates vata dominance along with nerve compression or degeneration , it is related to cervical spine carpal tunnel or long standing dhatu kshaya Surgery should be the last option unless there is severe nerve damage or loss of function
Along with the kashayam ,external oil application Daily massage of hands and fingers with ksheerabala taila before sleep .Keep the hands warm and avoid cold exposure.
Internally ashwagandha 1/2 tsp after food with warm milk Dashamoola aristha 3 tsp -0-3 tsp after meals
Before deciding for surgery I suggest nerve conduction study cervical spine evaluation and a trial of conservative ayurvedic management for a few weeks may improve without surgery when vata is pacified properly.
Yes, you can continue Balaguduchyadi Kashayam. It can be taken in the morning on empty stomach mixed with a little warm water (as advised). This medicine helps in inflammation and pain control.
Since you have fingertip numbness + tingling, it may be related to nerve compression / cervical issues / carpal tunnel or neuropathy, so along with kashayam supportive medicines will help.

1. Vitamin B12 level

4. RBS (Random Blood Sugar)
These tests help identify B12 deficiency and diabetic neuropathy, which are common reasons for fingertip numbness.

💊Medication💊
Tab. Ampachak Vati. 2 tabs twice a day before food. Cap. Palsinuron 2 caps twice a day before food. Syp. Maharasnadi Kwath 3 tsp twice a day before food with warm water.
Tab. Shankhavati 2 tabs twice a day after food. Suck and eat like hajmola

Balaguchyadhi Kashayam (Usage): YES, take it on an Empty Stomach. Dose: Mix 15ml Medicine + 45ml Warm Water. Time: Twice daily (Morning 6:00 AM & Evening 6:00 PM).
2. Additional Medicines (To Avoid Surgery): Since you have numbness and tingling, the nerve is compressed by inflammation. You need to dissolve the swelling to free the nerve. Ekangavir Ras: 1 tablet twice daily (After food). Action: This is specific for reviving numb nerves and treating tingling (Suptata). Kaishore Guggulu: 2 tablets twice daily (After food). Action: It reduces the deep-seated inflammation in the tendons that is pressing against your nerves.
3. External Therapy (Crucial): Murivenna Oil: Apply warm oil on your wrist, palm, and fingers. Bandage it lightly at night. This oil is famous for healing trapped nerves and ligaments.
4. Wait for 6 Weeks: Surgery (Carpal Tunnel Release) cuts the ligament. At 64, healing takes time. Try this protocol strictly for 6 weeks. If the numbness reduces even by 30%, you do not need surgery.

HELLO,
YOU ARE HAVING -pain and inflammation in fingrtips -numbness and tingling -possibly weakness or stiffness
In Ayurveda, this usually happens due to -Vata dosha disturbance (main cause of numbness, tingling, nerve pain) -Association of Kapha (causing heaviness, swelling, compression) -sometime ama (toxins due to weak digestion)
In modern terms, it can relate to -cervical spondylosis -carpal tunnel syndrome -peripheral neuropathy -nerve compression -diabetes related nerve issues if present
At this age, vata naturally increases, so nerve related symptoms are common
