Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the hip is emerging as a significant concern in India, driven by factors such as alcohol and steroid use, trauma, and underlying conditions like diabetes and sickle cell anemia. The incidence of AVN is rising, and the impact of COVID-19 may further accelerate this trend due to its effects on overall health and circulation.
According to Ayurveda, Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the hip is caused by Vata and Pitta dosha imbalances. Aggravated Vata can disrupt circulation, compromising bone health, whereas Pitta can promote inflammation and tissue deterioration. Ama (toxins) from poor digestion or stress can further impede critical energy, causing bone tissue degradation.
Ayurveda treats Hip AVN by addressing the underlying causes of the problem using holistic approaches. Herbal medicines such as Ashwagandha, Guggulu, Shallaki (Boswellia), and Hadjod (Cissus quadrangularis) can aid with hip AVN by lowering inflammation, increasing bone strength, and improving blood circulation. These herbs promote joint health and naturally reduce degeneration of the bones.
Panchakarma treatments for hip AVN include Abhyanga (therapeutic oil massage) to increase circulation, Swedana (herbal steam therapy) to reduce stiffness, Basti (medicated enema) to nourish bones and joints, Raktamokshana (bloodletting therapy) to detoxify, and Pinda Sweda (herbal bolus therapy) to relieve pain and inflammation. These treatments promote pain relief, regeneration, and increased mobility.
Dietary changes centered on anti-inflammatory foods and calcium-rich alternatives promote bone health. Additionally, lifestyle adjustments such as yoga, meditation, and pranayama improve circulation, reduce stress, and promote recovery. This method helps to recover balance, relieve pain, and promote bone regeneration.
