Kshaya Rogam - #5582
I’ve been reading about kshaya rogam in Ayurveda, and I think it might describe the condition my uncle has been facing. He’s 62 and has been dealing with significant weight loss, fatigue, and persistent cough for the last six months. Modern doctors suspect a lung-related issue, but I want to know if kshaya rogam aligns with his symptoms. What exactly is kshaya rogam, and how is it diagnosed? Does Ayurveda describe kshaya rogam as being caused by a specific dosha imbalance? From what I understand, kshaya rogam might be related to weakness and depletion of bodily tissues, but how is it treated in Ayurveda? What are the best remedies for kshaya rogam? Are there specific herbs or treatments like rasayanas to restore energy and strength in someone with kshaya rogam? I’ve also read that diet plays a significant role in managing kshaya rogam – what foods are recommended, and which ones should be avoided? Can kshaya rogam be completely cured with Ayurvedic treatments, or is it more about managing the symptoms? If anyone has experience dealing with kshaya rogam, please share how you approached it with Ayurveda.
