I would suggest focusing on balancing the Vata dosha, which governs movement and can contribute to spinal degeneration and back pain. For this, regular oil massages with warming oils like Mahanarayan oil can help soothe and strengthen the spine. To manage hyperacidity and excessive gas, herbs like Triphala, Ajwain, and cumin can support digestion and reduce bloating. A diet of warm, easily digestible foods with mild spices, avoiding cold or heavy meals, and reducing the intake of acidic or fried foods will also be beneficial. Yoga poses that improve spinal alignment and digestion, such as forward bends and gentle stretches, along with pranayama to calm the mind and body, will help alleviate the symptoms. It is important to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized treatment based on your individual constitution.

Degeneration of the spine and back pain can be quite bothersome, especially when they don't let you sleep peacefully. Along with that, hyperacidity and frequent gas can really make things worse. Let's address these issues through Ayurveda. For your back pain, particularly due to degeneration, it's important to understand it might be Vata imbalance affecting your spine. Try gentle yoga exercises like Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) and Shalabhasana (Locust Pose), doing them in the morning or whenever you're comfortable. Be careful though – avoid any poses that aggravate pain. Abhyanga – a self-massage with warm sesame oil or Mahanarayan oil can be soothing. Do it before a warm shower and let the oil sit for 15-20 mins. Now, about the digestion woes... Hyperacidity and gas are often linked to a Pitta imbalance. Neem, Brahmi or Amla capsules might help cool things down inside. You can also chew some fennel seeds after meals to ease digestion and reduce gas formation. Sipping lukewarm water with a pinch of ajwain (carom seeds) and a few drops of lemon can aid in keeping acidity at bay. When it comes to diet, aim to eat warm, freshly cooked meals and avoid heavy, spicy, or oily foods that can ignite digestive fire. Eating at regular intervals and not skipping meals is essential too, your weekly menu can include more cooling sattu drinks or kitchari. Lastly, listen to your body – sometimes, a little change in sleeping position, like placing a pillow under your knees or using a firm mattress, can make a world of difference in how you feel when you wake up. If the pain continues or worsens, don't hesitate to see a professional for proper examination or treatment. These tweaks should fit in well with lifestyle without too much disruption. If you stick with them consistently, you'll likely notice improvements!
