4/20/2018 0 Comments PSEUDO GOUT TREATMENTAbout Pseudo Gout: Ayurvedic Treatment Of Pseudo Gout At Central India Pseudogout is a form of arthritis characterized by sudden, painful swelling in one or more of the joints. These episodes can last for days or weeks. The most commonly affected joint is the knee. Also called Calcium Pyrophosphate Deposition Diseases, the common term “pseudogout” was coined for the conditions similarly to gout. Both conditions are caused by crystal deposits within joints, although the type of crystal differs for each condition. It isn’t clear why crystals form in the joints and cause pseudogout, but the risk increases with age. Treatments can help relieve pain and reduce inflammation. While the cause of rheumatoid arthritis is not clear, it is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. The underlying mechanism involves the body’s immune system attacking the joints. This results in inflammation and thickening of the joint capsule. It also affects the underlying bone and cartilage.The diagnosis is made mostly on the basis of a person’s signs and symptoms. Causes Pseudogout: Ayurvedic Treatment Of Pseudo Gout At Central IndiaPseudogout results from the abnormal formation of calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals in the cartilage (cushioning material between the bones), which is later followed by the release of crystals into the joint fluid. When CPP crystals are released into the joint, they can cause a sudden attack of arthritis, similar to gout. The cause of abnormal deposits of CPP crystals in cartilage is unknown. They may form due to abnormal cells in the cartilage, or they may be produced as the result of another disease that damages cartilage. CPP crystals may be released from cartilage during a sudden illness, joint injury, or surgery. The abnormal formation of CPP crystals also may be a hereditary trait. Signs and symptoms: Ayurvedic Treatment Of Pseudo Gout At Central India The symptoms of pseudogout are similar to those of other diseases, especially gout, which is caused by a buildup of uric acid. They also mimic those of rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis. Symptoms include: 1.Swollen 2.Warm 3.Severely Painful Ayurvedic Treatment Of Pseudo Gout At Central India

According to Ayurveda vata dosha is responsible for all body activities like circulation, digestive ,sensory movement etc. Due to vataprakopak ahar-vihar, vata gets vitiated which cause disturbance in all the body functions of movements.

– Use hair oil daily – Use oil massage using Sesame oil or Mahanarayan Tailam for about 20 minutes to whole body and take hot water bath thereafter. The massage and bath just before bedtime will aid the sleep also.Oil massage calms down the Vata. Skin is an important seat of Vata, since it is widely distributed over the body. – Observe silence for a few days and note the change in ringing. – Tinnitus appears to have some connection with the number of hours one spends daily in front of computer monitor. The radiation emitted by monitor is hitting the user all the time. A number of cases having auditory or vision nerve problems are coming to light. – Do not travel or walk in an extreme cold climate. Do not take bath frequently. – Do not stop natural urges when body wants to eliminate the wastes. – To increase blood circulation, rub by a mud soap at bath time also gives the effect of massage. In addition, it cleanses the blood to some extent. – In addition, there are certain breathing techniques invented by Guru Padmasambhava two thousand years ago, which have to be learnt in presence of Guru. These are known to help in most of vatic ailments affecting the body. – Peace of mind and Vata vitiation are inversely proportional. In fact Vata dosha unbalance causes a vascillation and constantly thinking mind. Hence, in case of all Vata disorders meditation appears to help. – excess television watching, excess use of computers, or sleeping near an electrical outlet should be avoided. – Moderation in sensory activities.especially ear sense -avoid too much exposure to loud noises, music, speakers, and professional activities which involve high frequency sounds. Lifestyle adjustments are thus an essential part of the effective treatment of tinnitus. 4/16/2018 0 Comments LIVER CIRRHOSISThis is the condition in which fibrosis of liver occur which cause permanent damage of liver.

Depending upon which particular Dosha is vitiated, atisaar has been classified into Vataj, Pittaj, Kaphaj, Sannipatik, Bhayaj and Shokaj types in Ayurveda. Vataj atisaar (caused mainly by vitiated Vayu) is marked by painful loose motions with sounds & foam, gases and cramps. Pittaj atisaar (caused mainly by vitiated Pitta) causes motions with burning sensation at anus, offensive odour and varying colours like green, red, blue. Thirst, giddiness, sweating and fever are often present. Kaphaj atisaar (caused mainly by vitiated Kapha) shows sticky, oily, whitish motions with foul odour, nausea, lazy feeling and excess sleep.
