📌 Most Likely Condition From your symptoms: Alternating loose motion & constipation Long duration (>5 years) No specific trigger Good appetite Chronic bloating This strongly suggests Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS – Mixed type). In Ayurveda, this resembles Grahani with Vata predominance. ⚠️ Important About Current Medicines Flygel (Metronidazole) This is an antibiotic. It should NOT be taken repeatedly for years unless infection proven. Frequent use can: Disturb gut flora Worsen IBS Cause more bloating Omeprazole (empty stomach long term) Long-term use can: Reduce stomach acid Affect digestion Cause B12 deficiency Increase bloating These medicines control symptoms temporarily but don’t cure root cause. 🌿 Ayurvedic Treatment Plan (Safe & Practical) 1️⃣ For Bloating + Gas ✅ Hingwashtak Churna ½ teaspoon With first bite of lunch & dinner With ghee Improves Vata, reduces gas. 2️⃣ For Alternating Motion ✅ Kutajghan Vati 1 tablet twice daily after food (If loose motion tendency more) OR ✅ Bilwadi Churna ½ tsp twice daily 3️⃣ For Chronic Grahani / IBS ✅ Takra (Buttermilk Therapy) Daily after lunch: Buttermilk + roasted jeera + pinch rock salt This is very powerful for IBS. 4️⃣ Night Support (If Constipation) ✅ Triphala (Low dose) ½ tsp at night with warm water Not high dose. 🥗 Diet Rules (Very Important) ✔ Eat at fixed times ✔ Avoid overeating ✔ Reduce tea/coffee ✔ Avoid frequent outside food ✔ Avoid very cold water ✔ Avoid eating when stressed Eat: Moong dal Rice + ghee Light sabzi Curd only in day 🧠 Very Important – Stress Connection IBS is 50% gut, 50% mind. If: Anxiety Overthinking Emotional stress Symptoms worsen. Add: 15 min walking daily Deep breathing Early sleep.

Hi, I hope you understand the medicines you described taking are not intended for regular use. You are suffering from a condition ayurveda describes as grahani. It’s treatment lies in improving your digestive health and metabolism. Atleast 2 months of regular treatment and monitoring is necessary. Start with * kaiduryadi kashayam 15ml twice daily before food mixed with 60 ml luke warm water * Dadimashtak choorna 3 gm twice daily after food mixed with butter milk * Draksharishta 30 ml twice daily after food * Dhanwantaram gulika 2tab+lasunadi vati 1tab thrice daily before food These will gently support your digestive health until we can start using stronger medications and ghee preparations intended for permanent solution. Stick to fresh boiled or steam cooked food items without much spice salt oil and masala.

HELLO, Based on your symptoms- long term loose motions alternating with constipation, bloating, gas and acidity- This closely resembles Grahani roga (similar to IBS) in Ayurveda. Since it is more than 5 years, it indicates chronic Agnimandya (weak digestive fire) with vata-pitta imbalance You are taking Flygel and Omeprazole, but long term relief requires correcting digestion, not only suppressing symptoms AYURVEDIC VIEW -Irregular digestive fire -Vata aggravation-> gas, bloating, constipation -Pitta aggravation-> loose motion, acidity, -Accumulation of Ama (toxins) in gut AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT 1) CORRECT THE DIGESTIVE FIRE Morning (empty stomach) -warm water + 5-7 drops lemon + 1 tsp honey OR -jeera water (boil 1 tsp cumin in 1 glass water) BEFORE MEALS -small piece of fresh ginger + pinch of rock salt INTERNAL MEDICATIONS 1) Kutajghan vati= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for loose motions 2) Hingwastaka churna= 1/2 tsp with warm water after meals for gas relief 3) Avipattikar churna= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime for acidity and bowel regulation 4) Buttermilk with roasted jeera + rock salt at lunch very important If more constipation dominant -1 tsp Triphala churna at bedtime with warm water DIET- very important -Eat at fixed timings -warm, freshly cooked meals only -moong dal, rice, khichdi best -bottle gourd, ridge gourd, pumpkin AVOID -cold water -curd at night -fried, spicy, bakery foods -tea/coffee excess -eating late night LIFESTYLE -walk 20-30 mins daily -avoid sleeping during day -reduce stress very important in IBS type cases -practice Anulom vilom and vajrasana after meals SPEICAL SIMPLE REMEDY - YET VERY EFFECTIVE -Daily after lunch -buttermilk + roasted jeera powder + pinch of hing This alone improves Grahani in many chronic cases HOW LONG FOR IMPROVEMENT? -Gas and bloating-> 2-3 weeks -Bowel regularity-> 1-2 months -Complete gut correction -> 3-6 months Consistency is key DO FOLLOW HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU
