Inguinal hernia usually requires surgery for full recovery, as it involves a weakness in the abdominal wall that cannot heal naturally. However, there are ways to manage symptoms and strengthen the surrounding muscles with Ayurveda and yoga. Avoid heavy lifting and activities that strain the abdomen. A fiber-rich diet is essential to prevent constipation, as straining during bowel movements can worsen the hernia. Herbal remedies like Triphala churna (1 teaspoon with warm water at night) can help maintain healthy digestion. Ashwagandha can improve muscle tone and strength when taken daily with milk or water (1 teaspoon). Yoga practices like Pavanamuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose) and Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-The-Wall Pose) can strengthen abdominal muscles gently. Avoid intense poses like Bhujangasana, which can put pressure on the hernia. Gently massage the abdominal area with warm castor or sesame oil to improve circulation and support the muscles. While these measures can alleviate symptoms, they will not close the hernia. For permanent recovery, it is advisable to consult a doctor or surgeon about minimally invasive surgical options.
