When it comes to healing a bone fracture, Ayurveda can indeed offer some pretty supportive approaches. You’ve already mentioned Hadjod (Cissus quadrangularis), which is well-regarded traditionally for aiding bone healing. It’s believed to promote bone health through the stimulation of osteoblasts or bone-forming cells. You wanna use it, you might find it in the form of tablets or powders. It’s effective, but consistency, like daily usage, is crucial here.
Ashwagandha is another good companion in the healing journey - not just for it’s adaptogenic properties but also for helping with inflammation and pain relief. Think of it like a little stress buster for the body. It’s generally safe, but, again, the correct dosage matters.
You asked about calcium-rich herbs. Absolutely, herbs like Shatavari and even foods like sesame seeds can be quite helpful. They provide the minerals necessary for bone strength.
Topical applications? Bala Taila can indeed be soothing and supportive. Massaging this oil around the affected area gently can aid in reducing pain and promoting healing due to its nourishing properties. Just be gentle, you don’t wanna press too hard on the fracture area.
Panchakarma therapies like Basti (medicated enema) can be beneficial, but they should be conducted under the guidance of an experienced practitioner. Not every Panchakarma technique suits everyone, especially in states of acute illness or injury.
For improvements, patience is key. Generally, visible signs of healing might take a few weeks, but the full process varies person to person. And side effects? Stick to recommended doses and timings, and usually, you’re good, but consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner ensures it’s tailored to one’s body constitution (prakriti).
Trust your instincts but back them with expert advice, especially when it’s about your uncle’s health, so while some remedies are generally safe, having a professional guide will offer a personalized approach.
