Appendix Lump - #6806
My sister was recently diagnosed with an appendix lump, and the doctor said it’s likely due to inflammation from appendicitis that didn’t fully resolve. She’s been experiencing pain in her lower right abdomen, especially after eating, and sometimes it radiates to her back. The doctor suggested surgery if it doesn’t improve, but we’re exploring other options first. Does Ayurveda have treatments for an appendix lump, or is it better suited for general digestive health? I read about digestive herbs like Haritaki and Pippali being useful for reducing inflammation, but I don’t know if they’re strong enough to address something like an appendix lump. Would Panchakarma or Basti treatments help with an appendix lump? We’re trying to avoid invasive procedures if possible, but we also don’t want to delay treatment if the condition could worsen. Does anyone here have experience managing this condition with Ayurvedic remedies? If there are specific dietary recommendations or lifestyle tips for managing an appendix lump, we’d love to hear about those as well. Should she avoid certain foods, or focus on eating more easily digestible meals? We’re feeling a bit lost and would appreciate any advice from those who’ve dealt with this before.
