Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment for Hepatitis

Hepatitis is a medical condition in which the liver gets inflamed and damaged due to various causes such as viral infection, drug reactions, over-dosage of drugs, exposure to chemicals, and chronic abuse due to alcohol consumption.  Hepatitis can be either acute or chronic if it persists for more than six months.  Acute hepatitis usually results in jaundice which can be either because of excessive breakdown of red blood cells as seen in malaria, or due to an obstruction of the bile flow either in the bile duct or within the liver itself.

Ayurvedic herbal medicines can also be given to treat and reverse damage due to drugs and chemicals as well as alcohol.  Herbal medicines which act on the liver as well as other vital organs such as the kidneys and heart need to be given in combination to treat such situations.  Chronic alcoholism also needs to be treated aggressively so as to help in an early remission of chronic hepatitis.  Acute or chronic hepatitis resulting from viral infection also need specific treatment with Ayurvedic anti-viral herbal medicines which are very useful in the treatment of viral hepatitis.

Most individuals having chronic hepatitis also need treatment with herbal immunomodulatory agents so as to improve the overall immune status and to maintain the health and vitality of the patient.  Chronic hepatitis can lead to cirrhosis of the liver which results in permanent damage and long-term complications which can lead to significant morbidity and mortality.  Hence, early institution of Ayurvedic herbal treatment in the management of chronic hepatitis is very important so as to provide early remission from the condition and prevent long-term complications.

Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment for Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is a medical condition related to abnormal bleeding from the uterus which is usually associated with ovulation failure and there are no other detectable organic causes for the condition.  A diagnosis of dysfunctional uterine bleeding or DUB is usually made only when all other known causes for uterine bleeding have been ruled out.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment for dysfunctional uterine bleeding is aimed at giving symptomatic treatment of the bleeding as well as treating the known causes for the condition.  Ayurvedic herbal medicines which have a specific action on the uterus, the ovaries, and the brain centers which regulate the working of entire genital system, are used in high doses for several months in order to provide complete relief from both the symptoms as well as any possible causes for the disease.  Herbal medicines regulate any possible dysfunction of the hormones in the affected individual and also reduce inflammation and treat any possible infection in the genital tract.

Since ovulation failure or a dysfunction of the ovaries is believed to be the prime cause for dysfunctional uterine bleeding, medicines which act specifically on the ovaries are used for about three to six months.  These medicines act on the ovaries and reduce inflammation and any possible fluid collection.  Herbal medicines also act on the ovaries and help them to function normally.  This helps in controlling and correcting the dysfunctional uterine bleeding.  In addition, medicines which act on the uterus also have an additional function of reducing inflammation and swelling in the mucosa of the uterus in addition to having a direct action of controlling the bleeding.

Most affected women complaining of chronic dysfunctional uterine bleeding also have other problems like weakness, giddiness, anemia etc. All these problems need to be treated with appropriate herbal medicines.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment can thus be judiciously utilised in the management and treatment of dysfunctional uterine bleeding.

Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment for Coronary Artery Disease

Coronary artery disease is a medical condition which causes a reduced blood supply to the arteries supplying the heart by a process known as atherosclerosis, in which fatty deposits accumulate in the walls of the arteries.  A partial block in the coronary arteries results in an attack of angina, while a complete block results in a heart attack.

Regular physical activity in the form of brisk walking, jogging, aerobic exercises, yogic asanas or a judicious combination of all the above-mentioned is important in order to reduce atherosclerosis and to reduce the long-term risk for an attack of angina or heart attack.  Individuals at risk also need to develop healthy eating habits and avoid foodstuffs containing high amounts of fat.  Stress can be reduced with the help of yogic asanas and breathing exercises as well as relaxation techniques.

Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment for Stroke

Paralysis or stroke is a medical condition in which damage or dysfunction of the various parts of the body occurs due to pathology in the brain which results either from a diminished blood supply (80 -- 85%) or bleeding in the brain (15 to 20%).  The blood supply to the brain vessels is usually reduced because of atherosclerosis or blood clots known as emboli.  The symptoms of paralysis or stroke include weakness or paralysis of limbs, paralysis of muscles of the face, difficulty in speaking, coordination problems, giddiness and problems with vision, sudden headache, and loss of consciousness.  Depending upon which part of the brain is affected and how much the severity is, paralysis can result in monoplegia (affecting one limb), hemiplegia (affecting upper and lower limb of one side), and paraplegia (affecting both lower limbs).

Acute paralysis is a medical emergency and usually needs to be treated in the intensive care of hospital in order to avoid serious complications and death.  Once the acute stage has subsided, Ayurvedic herbal treatment needs to be initiated at the earliest, possibly within three to four days of the paralytic attack so as to obtain maximum benefit from treatment.  Ayurvedic herbal treatment for paralysis or stroke includes both oral medication as well as localized therapy.  Local therapy is in the form of application of medicated oils, fomentation with medicated decoctions, and massage with various herbal ointments and pastes.  Local therapy helps in stimulating neuromuscular junctions and in strengthening muscles and tendons.  This treatment also provides stimulus to the brain and nerves to heal at the earliest.

Oral medication is initially provided to heal the damage in the brain, and to reverse the pathology of the condition.  Since an ischemic attack results in reduced blood supply, Ayurvedic herbal medicines are given to treat atherosclerosis and blood clots if present.  In case of hemorrhagic paralysis, treatment is given to heal and soothe damaged arteries and capillaries.  Further treatment is given to heal damaged nerve cells and to help in the process of regeneration.  Treatment is then continued in order to rehabilitate the affected individual, minimize the damage, and bring about recovery to the maximum extent possible.  Graded exercises and physiotherapy are also a must along with oral medication and massage.

Depending upon the extent and severity of paralysis, most affected individuals usually require treatment for periods ranging from two weeks to six months.  Ayurvedic herbal treatment can bring about substantial and significant improvement in people affected with paralysis or stroke.

It is important to treat damage and dysfunction of vital organs on a priority basis, while managing a patient affected with SLE.  Early treatment can prevent irreversible damage and serious complications later on in life.  Most individuals affected with SLE need aggressive and regular treatment for periods ranging from 6 to12 months.  The advantage of Ayurvedic herbal treatment is that these medicines can be used for prolonged periods without any serious adverse effects, and these medicines are known to provide substantial benefit to patients affected with SLE.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment thus has a significant role to play in the management and treatment of SLE.
