Hello Amod,addressing urinary bladder issues such as incomplete emptying and frequent nighttime urination requires a comprehensive approach that focuses on balancing the body's doshas, particularly Vata and Kapha, which can affect urinary function. Given your age and the presence of chronic conditions like Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), it's essential to adopt gentle yet effective remedies that support urinary health while being mindful of your overall cardiovascular health. To start, dietary modifications can play a crucial role in managing urinary symptoms. Incorporate diuretic foods that promote healthy kidney and bladder function, such as cucumbers, watermelon, and celery. Increase your intake of fresh fruits and vegetables, which can help maintain hydration and support kidney health. Avoid excessive consumption of salt and processed foods, which can contribute to fluid retention and affect urinary health. In Ayurveda, certain herbs are beneficial for urinary tract health. Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris) is highly recommended for its ability to strengthen bladder function and promote the complete emptying of the bladder. You can take Gokshura powder (1 teaspoon mixed with warm water) daily or consider Gokshura capsules as directed. Additionally, Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa) is another excellent herb that helps in reducing water retention and supports kidney function; you can take it in powdered form or as a decoction. For the sensation of incomplete bladder emptying, consider using Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), which can help manage stress and support overall vitality. A typical dosage would be 1 teaspoon of the powder mixed with warm milk or water before bed. Hydration is important, but it’s also crucial to manage the timing of fluid intake. Try to reduce fluid consumption in the evening to minimize nighttime urination. However, ensure you stay hydrated throughout the day to promote proper kidney function. In addition to dietary and herbal interventions, lifestyle practices such as yoga can help enhance bladder control and reduce urinary symptoms. Poses like Kapalbhati and Bhastrika Pranayama can strengthen pelvic muscles and improve circulation, promoting better urinary function.
