I am experiencing pain in hip joints since two daysafter trying a simple exercise involving raising of legs I am 52 years old and have a history of neck and back pain for which I am successfully taking orthoherb daily. Can you suggest a simple home remedy or nedicines available in Kerala for this left hip joint pain.

This looks like Vata aggravation (Vata vriddhi) in the hip joint due to strain from exercise, especially with a history of spine issues. 1. External care (most important) Gentle massage with warm sahacharadi oil oil Follow with mild hot fomentation (hot water bag) for 10–15 min Do this 1–2 times daily 2. Internal support Sahacharadi kwath tab - 2 tab twice a day after meal Yograj Guggulu or Mahayograj Guggulu – helps reduce Vata and joint pain Dashmool Kwath – for inflammation and stiffness (Available easily in Kerala Ayurvedic stores) 3. Home remedies Take 1 tsp castor oil with warm milk at night (2–3 times/week) to pacify Vata Add dry ginger (saunth) in warm water after meals 4. Activity advice Avoid leg-raising or strain exercises for a few days Do only gentle stretching once pain reduces Avoid cold exposure and sitting on hard surfaces

Thank you doctor for your expert prescription. Will actt on your advice. All the best

This pain is mainly due to aggravation of Vata Dosha caused by strain from exercise. In Ayurveda, sudden pain in joints and muscles is usually Vata-related. —Diagnosis: Vata aggravation (Vataja Sandhi/Mamsa Shoola – hip strain) —Rx: 1) Rumalaya Forte Tablets 1 tab BD after food 2) Aimil Rumalaya Liniment Local application over left hip 2–3 times daily with gentle massage 3) Shallaki Capsules 1 cap bd after food 4) tab trifla 1 tab at night —Advice: Local Abhyanga ( mahanarayan taila)+ mild swedana (oil massage + heat) Avoid strain/exercise for few days Take warm diet, avoid cold exposure –Follow up: after 5–7 days

Hello, It sounds like that leg-raising exercise may have strained the soft tissues or aggravated the joint, which is quite common when introducing new movements at 52. Since you already find relief with Orthoherb, your body likely responds well to anti-inflammatory Ayurvedic formulations. ​From an Ayurvedic perspective, this is viewed as Vata Vyadhi an aggravation of the Vata dosha (the element of air and movement) in the Sandhi (joint). The exercise likely caused a localized imbalance, leading to “Shoola” (pain) and stiffness. ​Home Remedies ​Local Snehana (Oiling): Gently apply warm Dhanwantharam Thailam or Sahacharadi Thailam to the left hip area. Do not massage vigorously; use light, circular strokes. ​Swedana (Heat): After oiling, apply a warm compress or use a hot water bag for 15 minutes. This helps the oil penetrate deeper and relaxes the muscles. ​Rest: Avoid any leg-raising or strenuous lower-body movements for the next 3–4 days. ​ Prescription : ​1. Rasnadi Kashayam (Tablet or Liquid) This is a flagship Kerala formulation for lower-body joint pain and Vata disorders. ​Dose: 2 tablets (or 15ml liquid mixed with 45ml lukewarm water) twice daily, 30 minutes before food. ​2. Ksheerabala 101 Capsules Specifically effective for nerve-related pain and joint inflammation associated with aging. ​Dose: 1 capsule twice daily after food. ​3. Murivenna (External Application) A renowned “first-aid” oil from Kerala used for strains, sprains, and joint pain. ​Usage: Apply warm over the hip joint before bathing or at bedtime.
