What to do for severe constipation and bloating after taking Nirgundi tablet for spine disc bulge? - #55781

Nirgundi Tablet is commonly used in Ayurveda for pain, inflammation, and spine or disc-related problems, but in some people—especially those with weak digestion, low water intake, or a Vata-dominant body type—it may trigger constipation, dryness, gas, or bloating. Since you developed severe constipation after even one tablet, your body may not be tolerating it properly at the moment. What you should do now Stop the tablet temporarily for 1–2 days Increase warm water intake to at least 2–2.5 liters daily Take light, warm, easily digestible food Avoid dry foods, bakery items, excessive tea/coffee, and spicy junk food Ayurvedic relief measures At night: 1 tsp ghee in warm milk or 1 tsp Isabgol husk with warm water For bloating: Warm ajwain + jeera water after meals Gentle walking after food helps gas movement Important For spine disc bulge, Ayurveda usually works best with a combination of: Vata-pacifying diet External therapies/oils Mild digestive support Proper medicine according to body constitution Do not self-medicate long term only by reading online suggestions, as digestion strength is very important before starting strong Vata medicines.
