Hello Thanks for telling us about what’s going on with your body. That shoulder blade and lower back pain that gets worse when you stand? Sounds like it could be a nerve, muscle, or disc issue. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊 YOUR CONCERN – Really bad pain in your left shoulder blade. – Really bad lower back pain. – The pain gets worse when you stand up. – It’s been happening for months. It points to irritated nerves and muscle spasms. What Ayurveda Says: This thing is called “Vata Vyadhi with Asthi–Majja Dushti.” In simple words: – Vata dries out and squeezes your nerves. – Weak muscles can’t hold up your spine. – Discs aren’t getting enough lube. – Nerves are ticked off → causing pain, stiffness, and burning feelings. Standing makes Vata put even more pressure on your spine. What We’re Trying to Do: – Calm down those angry nerves. – Give your spine and discs some love. – Chill out those muscle spasms. – Stop it from getting worse. – Stay away from surgery. Ayurvedic Plan: 1.Yograj Guggulu – 1 tablet, twice a day after you eat. – It cuts down on joint and nerve swelling. 2. Dashmoolarishta – 20 ml, twice a day after you eat. – Ease deep muscle and nerve pain. 3 Rasrajeshwar Ras – 1 tablet, morning and night after you eat. – Make spinal nerves stronger. 4. Ashwagandha + Shatavari powder – ½ tsp each, at night with warm milk. – Mend nerve tissue. EXTERNAL CARE Abhyanga (oil massage) Massage these spots every day: – Neck – Shoulder blade – Lower back Use Mahanarayan oil. After the massage, treat yourself to some hot water thing. Easy Things You Can Do at Home – 1 tsp of castor oil at night. – Turmeric milk every day. – Don’t sit for too long. Diet Plan Eat: – Warm, oily stuff – Ghee and milk – Rice and dal – Ash gourd and pumpkin Don’t Eat: –Cold stuff –Dry snacks – AC –Walking too much Don’t blow this off — spine pain can mess you up. Ayurveda can turn things around if we start now. Wishing you a speedy recovery, Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate
