I understand your concern. You’ve been dealing with long-term constipation along with gastric issues and fatty liver, and are already on allopathic medications. Ayurveda offers supportive measures that focus on improving digestion (Agni), balancing Vata, and cleansing the intestines. Here’s a simple, safe Ayurvedic Treatment Triphala Churna – 1 tsp at night with warm water or warm milk. Gently helps in chronic constipation. Best taken on an empty stomach. Isabgol (Psyllium husk) – 1 tsp with warm water before bedtime. Helps soften stools naturally. Avipattikar Churna –1 tsp with warm water after dinner. Useful for gastric acidity and liver support. Amlapittari Vati – 1 tablet after meals if you have acidity or burning sensation. Avoid heavy, oily, and deep-fried foods while taking these. External Therapies Abhyanga (oil massage) with sesame oil or medicated oils like Ksheerabala oil before bath, especially on abdomen and back. Stimulates bowel movement and calms Vata. Warm water enema (Greeva Vasti) occasionally, under Ayurvedic guidance, can help in chronic constipation without chemical laxatives. Diet Focus: Easy to digest, high-fiber, warm foods. Include daily Warm water – at least 6–8 glasses. Soaked almonds (4–5, peeled) in the morning. Fruits: papaya, pomegranate, apple (with skin), figs. Vegetables: bottle gourd, pumpkin, spinach, carrots. Whole grains: wheat, barley, millets (avoid refined flour). Lentils: moong dal, masoor dal. Use ghee in moderation. Spices: cumin, coriander, fennel in cooking – help digestion. Avoid Cold and dry foods (like crackers, cold drinks, chips). Excess fried/oily foods. Excess red meat and cheese. Too much processed sugar. Lifestyle Morning walk or gentle yoga – 20–30 mins daily. Squatting posture or foot stool while defecating helps bowel movement. Try warm water with lemon in morning to stimulate digestion. Eat at regular times, do not skip breakfast.

Hello Thanks for sharing what you’ve been going through. I get how draining it must be dealing with constipation every day for 10 years, being dependent on Dulcolax and suppositories. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

YOUR CONCERN You’re dealing with: – Really bad, ongoing constipation – Needing Dulcoflex to go – Not feeling empty after going – Lots of gas and bloating – Fatty liver (Grade-2) – Currently on Amlaycure DS How Ayurveda Sees It: It seems like: Pakvashaya gata Vata + Ama + Yakrit-Pleeha dushti which means: –Your colon (Pakvashaya) is dry, tired, and needs help –Your digestion is weak (Agnimandya) –Toxins (Ama) are causing problems in your gut and liver –Fatty liver is making less bile, which makes constipation worse –Using Dulcolax has made your colon lazy (Atibhedana janya Grahani) So, things won’t move without a push anymore. What We Want to Do – Get rid of toxins (Ama) – Fix your colon nerves – Get things moving naturally again – Help your liver work better – Stop needing Dulcolax THE AYURVEDIC PLAN 1️⃣First Up: Detox and Soften Things (2–3 weeks) 1. Avipattikar Churna 1 tsp with warm water before bed 2.Triphala Churna1 tsp at bedtime
3. Gandharvahastadi Kashayam 15 ml + 15 ml warm water at night
4Eranda Taila 1 tsp once a week with warm milk 5.Dulcolax =Stop using it slowly – don’t quit all at once! 2️⃣ Next: Help Bowel Nerves and Liver 1.Abhayarishta 20 ml after dinner
2. Liv 52 DS 2 tablets, twice a day 3.Punarnava Mandur 1 tablet, twice a day You can keep taking Amlaycure DS for your fatty liver. HOME REMEDIES Every morning: – Warm water in a glass – 1 tsp of soaked Isabgol husk – 5 soaked raisins At night: – 1 tsp of ghee in warm milk DIET PLAN (Super Important!) No: –Bakery stuff, biscuits; – Cheese; –Spicy or fried foods; –Tea or coffee at night Yes – Stewed apple; – Papaya; – Bottle Gourd; – Oats; – Moong dal; – Ghee every day Using Dulcolax for a long time can: – Hurt your colon nerves – Make you dependent on it – Make constipation worse Ayurveda can fix this. Your intestines aren’t weak – they’re just over-stimulated and dried out. We need to help them heal, not force them. Stick with this plan, and your colon should get back to its natural rhythm. Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate
