HELLO!!

according to ayurveda joint pain & local swelling is one of d symptoms of Amavata.
in which all joints are involved with severe pain ,swelling,local hot feeling,mild fever& constipation etc..

are small joints of hands & legs are involved?
what is duration of pain?

if it is since long time it always take more time to cure than regular.


sometimes, you can take pain killers if pain is very severe, but dont discontinue Ayurvedic treatment.


you can take 1.rasnaerandadi kasay vati 1tb twice a day
2.yograjguggulu 2tb thrice a day
3.kaishore guggulu 2 tbs thrice a day with warm water

also, Panchakarma like basti, pottali sweda will certainly help u a lot!!

last but important try avoid constipation always.

Have a very Good Health..!!
