Reversal of Avascular Necrosis with Ayurveda

Avascular necrosis can have a debilitating effect on individuals diagnosed with this condition. Joints that go through avascular necrosis develop a type of arthritis that is extremely painful. This may progress to the point where mobility is limited or restricted. Further, avascular necrosis also has the potential to cause deformities in joints – for example, the jaw is a joint that can be significantly damaged by avascular necrosis. Is there something that can help in the reversal of the Avascular Necrosis with Ayurveda? Let’s discuss this in detail.

In Ayurveda, Avascular Necrosis is known as “Vatarakta”. It generally occurs due to overuse of a limb, an injury, or an accident. It may also occur after surgery on a particular part of the body – all of these pose a threat to the blood vessels as well as the bone. Symptoms of Avascular Necrosis include pain, swelling, and stiffness in the affected area; loss of muscle mass; and deformity. The cases of Post-Covid Avascular Necrosis are on a rise and in this time, Ayurveda gives hope to everybody, with reversal of avascular necrosis in the following case study of Mr. Azad.

In Ayurveda, avascular necrosis is treated by improving the functional status of the damaged joint so that it can move without too much discomfort or pain. In addition, Ayurvedic treatment also aims at boosting the overall health of the affected person so as to minimize the risk of further complications. And the reversal of Avascular necrosis with Ayurveda is just like a cherry on the cake.

Reversing osteonecrosis with Ayurveda: A scientific Approach

Avascular Necrosis: Bone Death

Osteonecrosis, or bone death, is well known for patients who were on steroids, usually in the form of avascular necrosis (AVN) in the hip joint. Associated risk factors are corticosteroids, alcohol abuse, thin bones, pre-existing joint damage due to trauma or arthritis. The use of anabolic steroids can also lead to this disease.

Bone death because of loss of blood supply is not restricted to the hip joint. Cancellous bone is also at risk, for example in the tibia (shin) or the vertebral bodies of the spine. However, this type of osteonecrosis is unknown among athletes who use anabolic steroids.

Army personnel, serving the nation by his duties in Army- Azad is a teetotaler. A volleyball player. When he first felt pain after a game, he related it to his game only. Because he had never thought or heard about the condition of Avascular Necrosis.

Because he had no history of alcohol, doctors also didn’t give a thought to the AVN. He went for a medical check-up. The doctor examined him and thought this is just muscular pain. The doctor suggested him some pain killers and anti-inflammatory medicines.

But the pain was worsening every day.

He started limping.

Earlier he played regularly, for years and now walking for 100 meters became a challenge for this person!!

Very late, he went to a higher medical facility of the Indian Army. There he came to know about Avascular Necrosis of the left hip joint.

And now started the suggestions for surgeries. Somebody told him for Core Decompression and another surgeon suggested for Total Hip Replacement. But nobody suggested to him something which will help with the Reversal of Avascular Necrosis.

But Azad made his mind. To not to opt for surgery. He searched everywhere and came to Sukhayu Ayurved with the hope to get rid of the disease.
