Ayurvedic Treatment of Neuralgia

Neuralgia is a medical condition characterized by stabbing pain in the nerves of the face. The intensity of the pain depends on the level of nerve damage, which may be caused by diabetes mellitus, multiple sclerosis, infections, shingles, or old age.

Types of Neuralgia

Neuralgia is broadly classified into three types:

1. Trigeminal Neuralgia

2. Post-Herpetic Neuralgia

3. Parasthetica Neuralgia

Ayurvedic treatment of these conditions depends on their actual cause and may vary accordingly. According to Ayurveda, neuralgia occurs due to an imbalance in the ‘Vata’ (air element) in the body, which plays a significant role in its occurrence. However, ‘Pitta’ (fire element) can also contribute to neuralgia in some cases. Thus, Ayurvedic treatment focuses on balancing these elements.

Ayurvedic Herbs Used in Neuralgia

Ayurvedic treatment for neuralgia involves the use of specific herbs and medicines. Ayurvedic oils help restore the balance of Vata in the body. Some of the most effective herbs for neuralgia include:

• Ashwagandha
• Brahmi
• Curcumin
• Agnitundi

These herbs work synergistically to control pain and inflammation in the trigeminal nerve. Ayurvedic herbs also enhance microcirculation within the nerves, ensuring optimal nerve function.

Home Remedies for Trigeminal Neuralgia Disease

Certain home remedies can help relieve neuralgia pain at the primary level:

• Always eat a balanced diet.
• A balanced diet should contain sufficient protein, carbohydrates, and omega-3 fatty acids, which help in trigeminal nerve treatment.

Understanding Trigeminal Neuralgia

Among the types of neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia is the most common. Identifying its causes and symptoms can help in early treatment and relief.

What is Trigeminal Neuralgia?

Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition where stabbing pain radiates from both sides of the trigeminal nerve. The pain is often throbbing, piercing, and unbearable. It usually affects one side of the face, but in rare cases, both sides may be impacted.

Symptoms of Trigeminal Neuralgia

• Throbbing pain in the face
• Pain triggered by talking, eating, brushing, or shaving
• Presence of trigger points on the face that intensify pain

Ayurvedic Outlook for Neuralgia

There is no specific cure for neuralgia, but maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle can prevent its onset. Ayurvedic treatment can help eliminate the root cause of neuralgia, ensuring long-term relief.

Medical Astrology and Neuralgia

In some cases, individuals suffer from neuralgia despite being in good health. This could be due to planetary positions in their birth chart. According to Medical Astrology, each of the nine planets is associated with certain diseases, and the 12 houses in the horoscope represent different aspects of life, including health and disease.

Astrological Causes of Neuralgia

• Malefic planets in benefic houses can cause chronic diseases.
• Benefic planets in the 6th, 8th, or 12th house may lead to health issues.
• Certain planetary combinations influence nerve disorders and neuralgia.
