Diabetes can cause nerve damage and poor circulation, especially if a person has difficulty managing blood sugar levels. This can lead to foot ulcers, blisters, pain, and foot infections. The combination of sensory and motor peripheral neuropathies results in uneven foot pressure load and poor gait. Over time, hyperkeratosis of the compressed skin will form a hematoma and break due to neuropathy and increased pressure load, eventually developing into an ulcer that is difficult to heal. Studies on diabetic foot ulcers and diabetic neuropathy patients at Dr.Nambiars Advanced Ayurveda situated at Aundh, Pune are really encouraging. The result and the duration in healing of the diabetic foot ulcers depend on the degree of damage happened and the amount of oxygenated blood supply being received by the tissue. In case of severe diabetic foot ulcer or gangrene, the patient need not ampute the whole leg or a larger area, but precisely can operate and remove only the part that are completely dead or necrosed. The rest of the part can be saved from amputing and would remain healthy. The existing wound can heal faster than before by administering the method of treatment and medications developed at Dr.Nambiar's Advanced Ayurveda, Aundh, Pune.

OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is a condition where the patient is obsessed or stuck-up with one particular thought process or involved in some action/ work repeatedly. In some patients this condition may develope suicidal tendency, depending on the kind of thought that troubles them. Though many patients are aware of their problem and desperately wish to come out of it, they are compelled to continue a hapless life, without finding an effective remedy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Aversion therapy alone is proving to be less effective or ineffective in many cases in managing the OCD problem. We realize that it can't just be done with mental exercise alone, as it has much more to do with the body as a whole on physical, mental and spiritual well-being . Advanced Ayurvedic approaches on OCD cases at Dr.Nambiar's Ayurveda have shown significant changes in their behavior and thought process. it is observed that, over a period of time, the patient is able to overcome the condition gradually. There are significant improvement noted in their ability to suppress /overpower the negative thought with the positive one. The frequency of the episodes start receding to a good extend and they eventually, lead a normal life leaving behind their compelled obsessiveness to one particular thought or action. - Dr.Nambiar’s Advanced Ayurveda Aundh, Pune.

Do you experience Pain, tingling sense, numbness in one or both hands, wrist and fingers then it might be due to the compression of a nerve against the bony structure mostly the median nerve that passes in-between the small carpel bones inside the wrist that extends up to the finger tips. This disease is called as CTS or Carpel Tunnel Syndrome. Any kind of over usage of hand and wrist repeatedly for a longer period by bending laterally or rotating is the main cause of this problem. People from IT sectors or whoever uses the mouse in a wrong position, housewives, maids and laborer are the mostly affected. This could be treated successfully in a couple of week without surgery / cortisone injection, at Dr.Nambiar's Advanced Ayurveda. Earliest the measures taken, quicker the relief you achieve. HOW TO AVOID CTS - Practice warm-up exercise for hands and wrist every time before starting any manual work, by 1. slowly rotating hands in clockwise and anti- clockwise direction. 2. stretching wrist by holding both hands together with crossed fingers for about half a minute each.

Osteoporosis is the loss in bone mass. The bones become more porus and brittle. As a result, bones become weak and may break from a fall or, in serious cases, from sneezing or minor bumps. This can affect both male and female but most likely in female after menopause or hysterectomy due to sudden decrease in estrogen, the hormone that protects from osteoporosis. Certain medications increase the rate of bone loss including some antiseizure medications, chemotherapy and glucocorticosteroids. Every woman who crosses 45 yrs of age having moderate to severe pain in long bones, hips, knees, spine should undergo a BMD test. If your report says that you are orthopenic, then its time to change your lifestyle and food habbits because you still have time to reverse it and escape from osteoporosis in future. No wonder pill can recover you out of this generalised deficit by just poping up calcium or vit-D suppliments. but a collective approach can defenitly heal you from within.

Burning sense in feet, numbness in limbs are the alarming symptoms of neuropathy one should never ignor. This is peripheral neuropathy that affect the peripheral nervous system either due to diabetes called diabetic neuropathy or due to any compression at the root of particular nerve as seen in spondylosis/ disc bulge, brachial neuralgia, carpel tunnel syndrome or due to lack of blood suppy to specific area/ part of the body. Perpheral nerves can be rejuvenated and retrieviated back to earlier condition. The damaged neurons can be regenerated by specific ayurveda therapy and medication. If the neuropathy is due to diabetes then with special care and attention treatment for diabetes is administered paralelly and the blood sugar level is brought down with ayurvedic medicines. During the course of treatment the symptoms like lack of tactile sense starts regaining, the hyperasthesia, burning sense slowly diminishes in there intensity. The nerve degeneration and debility should be treated without much delay, so that the nerve functions can be restored in no time, just like the famous saying- 'Stich in time saves Nine'.

Takayasu's disease, "aortic arch syndrome," "nonspecific aortoarteritis," and "pulseless disease is a form of large vessel granulomatous vasculitis with massive intimal fibrosis and vascular narrowing, most commonly affecting often young or middle-age women of Asian descent, though anyone can be affected. It mainly affects the aorta (the main blood vessel leaving the heart) and its branches, as well as the pulmonary arteries. Females are about 8–9 times more likely to be affected than males. Takayasu's arteritis is similar to other forms of vasculitis, including giant cell arteritis which typically affects older individuals. Due to obstruction of the main branches of the aorta, including the left common carotid artery, the brachiocephalic artery, and the left subclavian artery, Takayasu's arteritis can present as pulseless upper extremities (arms, hands, and wrists with weak or absent pulses on the physical examination). Treatment with certain specific ayurvedic compounds and therapies are found to be significantly effective in arresting the progression of the disease and recuperating the overall health and body function.

The fact that we have'nt ever realised is that 95 % of the joint diseases do not require surgery. Any kind of inflamation associated with or without pain in joints are called as Arthritis. Among the types of arthritis, the commonly seen are - Osteo-arthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Gout arthritis, Psoriatic arthritis and Septic arthritis. Dificiencies in vitamins & minerals  especially calcium and vitamin-D can also lead to certain joint diseases.  There are few viral diseases that affect the immunity, cause weekness and debilitate the joint function like chikungunia. Joint deformity caused over a period of time either due to excess wear and tear or as a result of chronic degenerative joint diseases  may require surgical intervention to restore mobility. Therefore in such cases partial or total joint replacement are recommended. Majority of the cases who are recommended with Joint replacement surgery are Osteo arthritis or AVN sufferers. Osteo- arthritis is a degenerative joint disease. Osteo arthritis in the initial and 2nd degree can be treated and restored to its normal function and in 3rd degree  the process of degeneration could be arrested /deleyed and maintained with effective ayurvedic therapies and certain exercises. In 4th degree of OA where the miniscus  between the knee joints are worn out and the bones touch each other to erode their surfaces and the joint goes out of alignment then knee replacement is the last resort. It is true that maximum of the joint diseases do not require surgery but among the rest of them which required surgery some are because of our negligence, ignorance  and lack of awareness about the disease and its proper treatment. If proper measures are taken in the very early stage, we can arrest or deley even the degenerative joint diseases like osteo-arthritis and Avascular-necrosis which are  recommended with surgery after the condition deteriorates to the 3rd or 4th stage. Thus preserving and maintaining the wellness of joints should be given a priority.
