Thank you for sharing clearly. Crohn’s with multiple ulcers, severe constipation, mucus, and difficult stools indicates a Vata-Pitta dominant Grahani / Pakvashaya disorder in Ayurveda — where intestinal dryness, inflammation, and impaired mucosal healing coexist. This condition needs long-term constitutional care, not just symptom relief. Important Medical Note: Continue your gastroenterologist’s care. Ayurveda works best as supportive, healing therapy, not replacement in Crohn’s. Butter Therapy (Colon Lubrication) Take ½–1 tsp homemade cow’s butter early morning on empty stomach with Natural sugar (if non diabetic; if diabetic then avoid sugar) Follow with warm water ✔ Excellent for dry, hard stools, ulcer healing, Vata pacification Soaked Raisins (If non diabetic) Soak 6–8 black raisins overnight Eat in morning + drink water ✔ Gentle stool softener CAN ABHAYARISHTA BE TAKEN? Yes — but cautiously Useful when constipation is severe However, in Crohn’s with ulcers, strong laxatives may worsen irritation ✔ If used: Dose: 10–15 ml with equal warm water at night Frequency: Only on days when stools are very hard (not daily long-term) Long term medicines: 1. Panchamruta parpati- 1 pinch with 1 glass butter milk daily for 48 days. (1 hour before food) 2. Shankh vati 1-0-1 (15 mins Before food) After 15 days 1. Bilwadi Avaleha 1tsp daily in the morning at around 10 AM.
