Help! Pain in Wrist, Elbow, Inner arm & Knee

[Guest guest]

A friend of mine is having pain/issues with his right arm (mainly

wrist) & left knee.

 

Issue with right wrist: (duration of this issue is since Dec 05)

Having savior pain in the lower portion of wrist joint on the path

from little finger to arm. This pain was aggravated in the month of

January & February (Living in Toronto, Canada).

Now the pain has extended to whole of his arm starting from the same

place in wrist running on the inner side to arm to the shoulder with

one intense pressure points at elbow (the inner side).

 

Issue with left knee: (duration of this issue is for more than 2 years)

Weakness & pain in the middle lower portion of the knee on the

backside of leg. He is having this problem for quite a while. He feels

most of the symptoms while doing movement with his ankle or he is

sitting on floor & tries to stand up he cannot put load on his left knee.

 

He went to one the allopathic doctors & the doctor is doing some

tests. In parallel the doctor suggested that my friend might be having

`Serotonin - Symptoms' & asked him to take Serotonin medicine.

Although I am a layman & based on my reading on net I am approx. 100%

sure my friend cannot have Serotonin-symptoms.

 

Some of the physical characteristics, which you might need to

determine his prakriti are:

6 feet tall

Medium built – neither over weight no under weight.

Dry skin

Medium level curly hairs

Sleeps for approx. 6hr a day (never more than that)

 

Please let me know if any more information is needed to help me in

helping my friend to come out of this problem.

 

Before you provide any suggested medicine/yoga-assana/natural process,

can someone suggest me what sort of diet should I recommend him in

general(vat/pit/kuf)?

 

Thanks

Dear Nitin

 

You have been already suggested some medication for your friend. His

history, aggravation of symptoms in cold location in winter suggests

that it is a case of aamvata as per ayurvedic terms, despite pains

being in different locations. He may be having some swelling too. You

have not mentioned his profession. Under the circumstances, you can

see some files in folder 'articles' Vata diet as well as Pitta diet

together can be followed. Noel has stored several files specific

diets according to doshas.

 

Regarding serotonin we cant comment as mixing the two terminologies

is not easy. Less sleep means both Vata problem as well as

possibilities of serotonin out of balance, based on limited modern

science knowledge of this author.

 

As a remote advise, this author suggests that you may also try some

exeercises. The pains initiating at the wrist joint and radiating to

shoulder also comes under Vatic disorders, but a possibility of

modern science name Carpal Tunnel syndrome, cant be ruled out. You

may check up if exercises given at follpwing websites help you. If

you find them useful, please post your experience to ayurveda.
