Your symptoms suggest vata and aam imbalance affecting joints, leading to stiffness and swelling. It shows vata dosh imbalance as pain, stiffness. Kapha dosh imbalance as morning stiffness. Aam accumulation suggest swelling. Condition may be Sandhi vata ( osteoarthritis) Aam vata( similar to rheumatoid arthritis) I prefer investigation:- C-REACTIVE PROTEIN. RA FACTOR. RX- maharasnaadi kwath -10ml after food twice daily for 15 days. It reduced inflammation. Simhanad gugglu 2 tablets twice a day with lukewarm water after meal. Dashmool kwath for swelling and pain. 10ml twice a day with lukewarm water. Trikatu churna 1-2 gms daily twice a day before meal (15-20 minutes) with lukewarm water. Avoid Cold , heavy , spicy and oily food which are heavy to digest and make aam in body . Avoid prolonged standing and sitting. Gentle yoga knee stretching and rotations will help.

Hi, I understand your discomfort, and based on your symptoms, this appears to be a condition involving Vata–Kapha dushti, which is causing pain, stiffness, and swelling in your leg. What you can start with (initial Ayurvedic approach) First, we need to lighten the system (Langhana) and improve digestion, as this is the base of treatment: Take light food for 2–3 days, preferably moong dal (green gram) based diet → This helps in reducing Kapha and clearing channels Medicines (general guidance) You may consider the following: Hingwashtak Churna – 1 tsp with the first bite of food Simhanada Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily Dashmoola Kwath – 2 tsp twice daily Avipattikar Churna – 3 grams at night After 3 days: Start Erand (castor) oil – 1 tsp at night These help in: Correcting digestion (Agni) Reducing Ama (toxins) Pacifying Vata and Kapha Relieving stiffness and improving movement Advice I would strongly recommend that you consult an Ayurvedic physician personally before continuing medications. Ayurveda does not work in a generalized way— we always: Take detailed history Assess Prakriti, Agni, and Dosha status Perform proper Pariksha (examination) This is essential to completely eradicate the disease from its root, not just manage symptoms. Please take this as initial guidance, and do seek a proper consultation for a personalized treatment plan. Thank you, and I hope this helps you feel better soon .
