Successful Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment of Chronic and Recurrent Pancreatitis

Pancreatitis is a medical condition in which there is inflammation and damage to the pancreas due to gall stones, or alcohol binges along with fatty food consumption. The pancreatic juices which are responsible for the digestion of food can cause auto-digestion of the pancreas due to the inflammation process. An acute attack can be dangerous, with the potential for serious complications like infection, peritonitis, abdominal rupture and septicaemia.

An acute attack is best treated in an intensive care unit of a well equipped hospital. However, recurrent attacks of pancreatitis can be effectively treated with Ayurvedic herbal medicines. Ayurvedic treatment can also reverse the damage and inflammation to the pancreas and prevent recurrence of attacks. Early commencement of Ayurvedic treatment can bring about a full recovery and prevent permanent damage.

Ayurvedic treatment is equally effective in both adults as well as children. An average of about 6 months of treatment is required for most patients. It is important to reduce weight and avoid intake of alcohol, tobacco, and fatty foods. Patients with gall stones need to be treated aggressively with Ayurvedic medicines.

Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment of Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic and recurrent skin disease characterized by itchy, inflamed, scaly patches which may cover a major part of the skin. This disease is believed to be an autoimmune disorder, in which the body’s immune system itself targets some specific organs or systems in the body, causing inflammation and damage. Inflammation, itching and recurrent breakout of skin rash can cause serious psychological stress, which can further aggravate and fuel the condition.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment can tame and gradually cure this condition using a systematic approach of detoxification, rejuvenation, and specifically targeting the skin and subcutaneous tissues with healing herbs. Chronic infection, inflammation, heavy metal toxicity, high levels of stress, and faulty diet and damaging lifestyles are important concerns which need to be addressed aggressively. While treating the condition with appropriate herbs, physicians advise patients about the daily food intake and dos and don’ts.

Recurrence is common with this condition and stress is a major contributing factor. This needs to be treated both by taking adequate medications as well as modifying attitudes, work styles, long term goals, and adopting a spiritual outlook. Exposure to adequate sunlight and fresh air is also very important for long term health.

Depending upon severity, patient compliance and response to medicines, average treatment time ranges from about 4 to 12 months.
