Your symptoms severe foot swelling, burning/pain, imbalance and falls suggest a combination of Vatavyadhi (neuropathy) with shotha (edema). This needs systematic management, not only pain relief. Also note: repeated falls and swelling can indicate nerve damage + possible metabolic/kidney involvement, so basic investigations (blood sugar, B12, kidney function) should be checked alongside treatment. Internal medicines Yograj Guggulu – 2 tablets, twice daily after food Dashmoolarishta – 20 ml + equal water, twice daily after food Ashwagandha churna – 5 grams with warm milk at night Punarnava Mandur – 2 tablets, twice daily after food (for swelling) 2. Nerve strengthening + pain control Mahayograj Guggulu – 1 tablet twice daily (if pain is severe) Balarishta – 15 ml + equal water, twice daily after food 3. External therapy (very important) Mahanarayan taila or Ksheerbala taila Gentle massage on legs and feet daily (15–20 min) Follow with warm fomentation (hot towel/steam) 4. If burning sensation is high Giloy satva – 500 mg twice daily Praval pishti – 125 mg twice daily Diet & lifestyle Avoid cold exposure, AC, cold water Take warm, easily digestible food (soups, moong dal, ghee) Reduce salt if swelling is significant Use support while walking (as you are doing)
