Condition which you describe above is due to imbalance of vata Pitta or also vata Kapha imbalance 1) Yogaraja Guggulu- two tablet twice daily 2) Sahacharadi Kwath- 15 ml with 45 ml lukewarm water before food 3) Ksheerabala (101)- 5 to 10 drops With warm milk 4) Pinda Thailam- gently application over the feet and legs 5) Sahacharadi Thailam- warm and apply to the lower back Since physical activity triggers the pain, avoid heavy lifting, forward bending, and long periods of standing. Use a heating pad on the lower back, but avoid high heat on the feet if they already feel like they are “on fire.” Use room-temperature Pinda Thailam for the feet instead. Avoid standard physiotherapy until the acute inflammation subsides. Switch to very gentle Sukshma Vyayama (subtle joint rotations) only if they do not cause pain.

Pare com a fisioterapia e os exercícios imediatamente. O exercício agrava o dosha Vata (movimento). Como os seus nervos já estão altamente inflamados, o alongamento e os exercícios agem como um trauma físico, piorando a sua dor significativamente. O nervo ciático precisa de repouso absoluto e lubrificação, não de tração. Diagnóstico: Esta é uma clássica Gridhrasi (Ciática) severa, impulsionada por um forte agravamento de Vata e Pitta. O Vata bloqueado está causando a dor profunda na lombar e a dormência nos dedos. O Pitta (calor/inflamação) está atacando as terminações nervosas, causando a sensação insuportável de “fogo” na sola dos pés. Prescrição Ayurvédica Para curar isso, precisamos acalmar o calor que está queimando os nervos e nutrir a região lombar de dentro para fora. 1. Sahacharadi Kashayam Dose: 15 ml misturados com 15 ml de água morna. Horário: Duas vezes ao dia, 30 minutos antes das refeições (com o estômago vazio). Ação: Esta é a principal decocção ayurvédica para desbloquear o Vata na parte inferior do corpo. Ela atua diretamente na descompressão do nervo ciático e alivia a dormência até os dedos dos pés. 2. Trayodashang Guggulu Dose: 2 comprimidos duas vezes ao dia. Horário: Após as refeições, com água morna. Ação: A melhor medicina clássica para inflamação dos nervos, dor ciática crônica e rigidez na região lombar e quadril. 3. Kamadudha Ras (Simples) Dose: 1 comprimido duas vezes ao dia. Horário: Após as refeições. Ação: Esta é uma medicina fria (Sheeta). Ela neutralizará imediatamente o excesso de Pitta no seu sangue e interromperá a sensação de queimação e calor excessivo nos seus pés. Cuidados Externos e Regra Crucial Aplicação Local: Aplique suavemente óleo Mahanarayana morno (ou óleo de gergelim puro) na região lombar. Não faça massagens profundas ou vigorosas, apenas espalhe o óleo levemente sobre a pele. Para o Fogo nos Pés: Aplique Ghee de Vaca puro e frio (manteiga clarificada) diretamente na sola dos pés todas as noites antes de dormir. Isso puxará o calor e acalmará as terminações nervosas. Repouso: Evite curvar-se para a frente, levantar pesos e sente-se com a coluna sempre apoiada. Regards Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma
