Sprain -Ayurvedic Treatment

Whatever be the age, gender or race, injuries are a part of human life and development. Bone fractures and injury to the internal organs are considered as emergency situations which can be fatal or disabling for the lifetime. But there are less serious injuries which may go unnoticed at the time of trauma but can be severe and disabling as the time goes by. There are many examples like sprain, a hairline fracture or a stress fracture etc. These will not cause immediate & serious signs like unbearable pain, discolouration or huge swelling like in the fractured bones. But if not diagnosed, managed & immobilised in a proper way, these can cause serious health problems of locomotor system in the long run. A sprain is a stretching or tearing of ligaments — the tough bands of fibrous tissue that connect two bones together in the joints. The most common location for a sprain is in the ankle.

Signos y síntomas

  • Pain/tenderness
    Swelling and/or bruising
  • Cold foot or paresthesia (possible neurovascular compromise)
  • Muscle spasm

Causas

Physical injuries or trauma.

Fisiopatología

The lateral ankle complex, which is composed of the anterior talofibular, calcaneofibular, and posterior talofibular ligaments, is the most commonly injured site. Approximately 85% of such sprains are inversion sprains of the lateral ligaments, 5% are eversion sprains of the deltoid or medial ligament, and 10% are syndesmotic injuries. The ATFL is the most likely component of the lateral ankle complex to be injured in a lateral ankle sprain. Osteochondral or chondral injuries of the talar dome should be considered when diagnosing an ankle injury.

During forced dorsiflexion, the PTFL can rupture. With forced internal rotation, ATFL rupture is followed by injury to the PTFL. Extreme external rotation disrupts the deep deltoid ligament on the medial side, and adduction in neutral and dorsiflexed positions can disrupt the CFL. In plantarflexion, the ATFL can be injured.

Remedios caseros

To treat a sprained ankle or leg at home, remember the acronym RICE:

  • Rest. Stay off your ankle or leg until you can get to the doctor or until the swelling goes away.
  • Ice. Put ice on the swollen area as soon as you can for 15 to 20 minutes. Then repeat every three to four hours.
  • Compression. Wrap your ankle or leg snugly, but be sure not to cut off circulation. Support stockings may be an option.
  • Elevation. Raise your ankle or leg above your heart (or as far above your heart as possible). Two pillows will usually give you the correct elevation. This encourages fluid to move away from your leg & prevent swelling.

Dieta

  • A evitar

Heavy meals and difficult to digest foods – cause indigestion.

Junk foods- cause disturbance in digestion and reduces the bioavailability of the medicine

Carbonated drinks – makes the stomach more acidic and disturbed digestion

Refrigerated and frozen foods – causes weak and sluggish digestion by weakening Agni (digestive fire)

Milk and milk products – increase kapha, cause obstruction in channels and obesity

Curd – causes vidaaha and thereby many other diseases

  • Por añadir

Comidas ligeras y alimentos fáciles de digerir

Green gram, soups, honey

Freshly cooked and warm food processed with cumin seeds, ginger, black pepper, ajwain etc

posturas de Yoga
