Glossitis is the inflammation of the tongue. The causes of glossitis vary from simple to complex. It can appear in several forms, such as acute glossitis, where the condition arises suddenly, or chronic glossitis, which persists over a longer period. Understanding the types of glossitis is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment. Ayurvedic treatments for glossitis often include herbal remedies, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments aimed at reducing inflammation and promoting overall oral health.

Der Patient muss in einer meditativen Haltung mit aufrechtem Kopf und aufrechter Wirbelsäule sitzen, wobei der Körper entspannt ist. Der Patient muss ein Nasenloch (z. B. das linke Nasenloch, wenn er die rechte Hand benutzt und umgekehrt) mit dem Daumen verschließen und durch das andere Nasenloch vollständig ausatmen. Wiederum muss er durch das andere Nasenloch tief einatmen, während das gegenüberliegende Nasenloch noch mit dem Daumen verschlossen ist.
