Hi!! First, I love your work. Especially for the Marines.

Second I saw requests were open so I decided to shoot my shot.

Admirals (any admiral you want to write for) trying to get their s/o to return Sengoku’s goat, like reader of fed up not getting cuddles from their busy admiral partner so has stolen the goat for cuddles and is refusing to give it back.

I just thought it was a cute idea. And now that I think about it I can’t remember the name of Sengoku’s goat.

Anyway, you are amazing, stay hydrated and I hope you have a nice day.

Marine Admirals React to You Harboring Sengoku’s Goat

Characters: Akainu, Kizaru, Fujitora

Taglist: @portalzoneschaos

This was so adorable to think about, I hope it wrote it right though. Thank you so much for being here and requesting, Have a nice day and be safe. <3

Akainu | Sakazuki

• At first he would disregard your reasoning behind stealing Sengokus goat, his first instinct is to chide you and get you to return it but much to his surprise, you don’t listen, and simply turn away to coddle the animal closer to you.

“ I said you need to give it back. “

You could feel heat of his devil fruit begin to fill the room at your refusal of his command. He stood with arms folded over his chest, the tightness of his teeth clenching together creating a grating noise.

“ And I said no! Just because you don’t get lonely doesn’t mean I don’t! “ The brash tone of your voice as you asserted yourself shocked him, and briefly his brows unfurled before he knelt down. He was silent, watching as you hid your face and only held the animal closer and coiled into a tight ball on your bed.

“ Use your words. Tell me what’s wrong. “ He spoke in a firm tone, but you knew he was trying to decode your behavior. Sometimes he was just emotionally constipated..

“ I’m lonely. You’re always gone and.. I miss you. “ Your tone dropped at the end and transitioned to a mumble, barely audible which made his frown deepen. You fought not to make eye contact when he didn’t respond, but got sidetracked when his hand softly pushed through your locks as he leaned down to leave a kiss.

“ I know I don’t have much time on my hands. There’s not much I can do about it. So how can I fix it? “ He sat attentively in front of you now, legs crossed and hands resting on his knees as he watched you sit up.

“Well.. maybe you could make allotted times to call me.. I miss your voice a lot.” You timidly spoke as your hands fidgeted at the request, bracing yourself for another excuse only for him to briefly nod.

“ I’ll look at my schedule and work it in. That way, it’s not impacting work and we have some form of time together. Is that fair ? “

“ … Yes. “

“ Good…. Now please get the goat off of our bed and out of the house. “

Kizaru | Borsalino

• Gets jealous of the goat-

• He would profusely apologize to you for being so busy, and obviously he would feel alittle guilty, but his Justice means that when he’s told to do something he does it. So in many ways work comes first, however….. he offers you something to help ease your anxiety about being alone.. ;)

The house was dark as usual when Kizaru slipped in, his coat slung over his shoulder and hand grazing the back of his neck as he rubbed it in fatigue. He almost managed to sit on you until a warning bleat startled him from his thoughts, and you from your slumber.

“ Shh !! “ You soothed the goat, rubbing its neck as you looked up to the source of its panic. Kizaru stood motionless, sighing deeply as he pushed the glasses back up that slipped to the tip of his nose from gazing down at you.

“ Why is there a goat on the couch? “

“ Because he was wandering around and looked lonely, and he pays more attention to me then you do. “ You muttered the last part, smiling when Kizarus hand playfully ruffled your hair.

He took a seat beside you, his smile growing when you curled into his side and hugged him, relieved at finally getting to feel him next to you. When you did manage to get attention it was in the later hours of the night, only to wake up again to the vacant spot next to you in the early mornings. It wasn’t easy being an Admirals spouse, in fact it was alittle lonely at times. But there were tid bits of moments where you were inseparable, and all you could do was appreciate each others presence.

This was one of them.

“ I miss you so much throughout the day. It’s so.. lonely here, the house is huge and it feels like I’m just some tiny bug.. “ A sigh breezed past your lips and you leaned into the warmth of his shoulder as he hummed in response, wrapping an arm around you as he leaned in to kiss your head.

He remained silent, his hand absentmindedly stroking your hair until he spoke.

“ … I could always get you pregnant- “

“ BORSALINO ? “ You shouted in confusion and astonishment, immediately pulling away which had startled the goat who bolted from the couch. A low, sultry chuckle escaped his lips as he rested his head on the back of the couch agian and closed his eyes, spreading his wing span along the top of the furniture.

“ Just a thought.. “

Fujitora | Issho

• I feel he would honestly be alittle sad that he let you get so lonely, his poor heart would break at the thought of you feeling so alone that you needed to focus your attention on something else.

• His solution would most likely be buying a pet <3

When he arrived home he noted how quiet it was while slipping his shoes off. As he traveled deeper into your home he heard you stifle a small sniffle, which immediately broke his heart in two.

“ Oh my poor dear, “ He reached out to touch you only to feel horns and a soft furry face that began to snuff at his fingers. You couldn’t help but laugh when he retracted quickly, his eyes opening with a visibly disturbed look appearing on his face.

When you made room for him to sit he instead pulled you into his lap and cupped your face. The feeling of the course pads of his thumbs running along your cheeks made them flush and you unconsciously leaned into his touch, tears subconsciously falling and collecting on his hands.

“ Poor thing.. I know I haven’t been home in so long.. how did you even manage to get uh… did you get a pet ? “

“ It’s Sengokus goat.. I’m not gonna give it back until you promise me I won’t be lonely anymore.. “ You shakily spoke, eyes still closed as he leaned in to kiss your forehead and wipe the tears that flowed away.

“ … Well.. I can’t guarantee that you won’t have moments alone.. So how about this, let’s go buy a pet. That way, when I’m away, you have someone to wait with. “

“ Any pet I want ? “

“ Any pet you want… just not Sengoku’s. “

For those who have moved north in recent years and are still grappling with the warmer conditions, Jerry offers a class in Sub-tropical Gardening 101.

The weather:

Just because you’ve moved to the warm sub-tropics, doesn’t mean you’ll no longer get frosts! And while there’s plenty of sunshine, summer rainfall can be patchy and erratic.

There are two main seasons: warm and cool.

* Warm runs from December to March and it’s generally wetter. Rainfall can be short and heavy.

* The cool season runs from May to November and that’s generally drier, with lower temperatures and less humidity.

Soil: Jerry recommends adding compost to the soil whenever sowing or planting to help combat these seasonal shifts. And always cover the soil with mulch to capture and store seasonal downfalls. Jerry uses chopped sugar cane.

Starchy staples - potatoes can rot or wither in Brisbane, so Jerry grows yams, arrowroot, sweet potatoes and bananas instead.

He recommends sweet potato and an easy plant for beginners; plant in a raised bed for good drainage, then feed monthly and water sparingly. Watch for grasshoppers and lift all your crop at harvest to avoid leaving food for weavils. Crop rotation avoids reinfestation, too. Plant in spring for harvest after 3-4 months. Don’t forget the new shoots are edible, too!

Leafy greens can go to seed quickly in the heat. They do best in the cool season but sowing for succession harvests helps, too. Jerry grows a range of greens, including Ethiopian cabbage, leeks, sweet leaf, kings salad, and herbs.

A good starter for beginners is celtuce, which tastes like a cross between celery and lettuce. As well as using the leaves, the stems can be peeled, sliced and stir-fried.

Fruit trees - Jerry says you need at least one exotic sub-tropical fruit and his pick is the papaya. You can eat the ripe fruit, make a lovely green papaya salad, the seed relieves constipation and the chopped leaves have a peppery taste. Treat as short-term perennials and replace every 2-3 years. To avoid fruit fly, pick the fruit green and ripen it indoors.

Tomatoes - in the subtropics the seed should be sown in March for planting in April or May because they grow better in the dry season. This also helps avoid fruit fly attack - until late September, at least. Grow cherry tomatoes to reduce the risk of caterpillar attack.

Frangipani - a sub-tropical must-have. Don’t limit yourself to the old-fashioned white flowers - there are hundreds of cultivars that will grow in the sub tropics, so enjoy them and the different fragrances they bring. They need full sun and excellent drainage. Feed with a slow-release fertiliser that’s high in phosphorous and potassium twice a year: in spring and summer.

Featured plants:

Winged yam (Dioscorea alata)

Banana (Musa cv.)

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas cv.)

Bok choy (Brassica rapa cv.)

Ethopian cabbage (Brassica carinata)

Leek (Allium ampeloprasum cv.)

* Sweet leaf (Breynia androgyna)

* Kings salad (Cosmos caudatus)

Rice Paddy Herb (Limnophila aromatica)

Fish Mint (Houttuynia cordata)

*La Lot (Piper sarmentosum)

Celtuce (Lactuca sativa cv.)

*Papaya (Carica papaya cv.)

Tomato ‘Grosse Lisse’ (Solanum lycopersicum cv.)

Frangipani (Plumeria cv.)

* Always check species before planting; they may be environmental weeds in your area.

Dreamwork is a powerful mystical practice for enhancing your perspective of reality, quality of your life, and imaginative abilities by bringing awareness to the content of your dreams.

This challenge intends to bring each participant into greater attunement with their dream worlds. This, then, allows increased ease in trusting your intuition, being bold enough to dream and manifest, creating more beauty and mystique to your life, catalyzing the healing of inner traumas and limiting beliefs, as well as just to developing an understanding of your own multidimensionality. (For more on developing your imagination/3rd eye, see here).

The challenge will span from July 21st to September 14th 2023 (offering 2 full months of skill development), and it is open to the public. However, I'm sharing details and guidance are available exclusively on Patron, such as a downloadable dream journal (cover page pictured above) & nighttime routine tips. Of course, you may take on the challenge at whatever date you like.

The Challenge Tasklist (see the more detailed version here):

Week 1: Recording Your Dreams: This is to gain a sense of familiarity with your dream worlds. Notice what kinds of themes come up. Notice how you tend to act. Notice what kinds of characters come up. Notice the locations. Each morning or after each slumber (naps included), your task will be to immediately write down your dream with as much detail as possible. Dream log pages are provided in the downloadable dream journal.

Week 2: Enhancing Your Inputs (Part 1): Emotional constipation, or blockages in your astral body, can be caused by lifestyle. You will be encouraged to approach your choices of food, music, pastimes, entertainment, etc. in a way that will let the energy in your astral body thrive. For example, signs of a healthier astral body include a slower (low stress) lifestyle, healthy communication, greater mindfulness, positive self-talk and self-esteem, healthy detachment, restful sleep, and, of course, more lucid dreams. Tasks will include certain meal upgrades, because digestive situations can be a major hindrance to optimal sleep quality, dream recall, and emotional processing (due to the gut-brain relationships).

Week 3: Moment to Moment Awareness: One of the major reasons why we are unable to continue consciousness into our dream states is that we lack true consciousness when we're awake, particularly of our emotional states. Remaining aware of how your emotions shift and how you're being emotionally affected by your perspectives & circumstances will allow you to remain in present moment awareness. The daily task will be to develop your awareness, just in the way that children tend towards, never attached too long to your emotional circumstances, without dismissing them.

Week 4: Dream Herbs: Certain herbs are able to enhance dreams, relax the nervous system, and strengthen meditative awareness. These will be employed in our challenge so that we can experience this relationship. Tasks will include different ways of working with the herbs, such as implementing a tea time.

Week 5: Visualization Boost: A large component of dreams are the visual component. Many people lately, with their constant attention to screens and stories in visual form (TV, videos, movies, etc), struggle to realize what their imaginations look like in particular. The tasks will include a series of meditations and methods of connecting to your own imaginal realm.

Week 6: Enhancing Your Inputs (Part 2): Further emotional/astral blockages will be able to be relieved by more lifestyle shifts. Tasks will include spending time on more fruitful hobbies, choosing & creating habits that fill your cup rather than deplete your energy, and working with the elements daily.

Week 7: Digital Detox: Eliminate some aspect of technology in some way. Maybe you will refuse to use your phone for the first two hours of the day, take a break from social media, take a rest from social media overall, or use the internet purely for uplifting content. A serious period of meditation may even be implemented. Whatever you do, that will be your task of discipline so that you can connect deeper to your imaginal realms.

Week 8: Constructing Your Imaginal World: You've gotten a good picture of your dream worlds now. It's time to integrate that so that you thoroughly bring up the value of your dreams. Tasks will encourage you to bring a deeper sense to your imaginal world, so that you have a deep interest of navigating it and learning from it, just as the physical world we're already all aware of. You may find that, in the process, you get a deeper sense of who you are multidimensionally, based on your skills, actions, and interactions in the astral plane. You may find communication with benevolent spirits, ancestors, elemental beings, creatures, pets, and so on.

Benefits of Jujube Honey Tea (And A Recipe!)

Jujube tea is a traditional herbal tea made from the dried fruit of the Ziziphus jujuba bush. The fruit is also known as Chinese date or red date.

For generations this tea has been widely regarded as being incredibly healthy and offering a dense nutrient composition, providing vitamin C and several polyphenols alongside vitamin Bs.

Jujube tea is used for its benefits in relieving constipation, strengthening the immune system, increasing circulation, etc. This tea has a lot of potential antioxidant abilities, with its high amounts of vitamin C. It’s believed to potentially be able to help decrease inflammation and oxidative stress in the body.

Elderly Care Home and Constipation In Seniors

Constipation is a widespread health problem that may affect anyone at any age; 22% of the population has it, but it's most frequent in the elderly, where 40% of senior individuals in India have it. It is a disorder that develops when a person has trouble passing feces, leading to irregular bowel motions, lumpy or hard stools, and a sense of incomplete evacuation. Hemorrhoids, anal fissures, and rectal prolapse are just a few of the issues that can develop from constipation if it is not addressed. These conditions can be painful and necessitate surgery.

A low-fiber diet, a lack of exercise, certain medicines, dehydration, and underlying medical problems including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and hypothyroidism are just a few of the many things that can cause constipation. Due to the broad presence of risk factors such a sedentary lifestyle, bad eating habits, and a lack of knowledge about preventative measures, constipation is becoming a significant problem in India. These issues are given utmost importance at the elderly care home with a doctor on call at their service. 

Consuming a high-fiber diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes is essential to avoiding constipation. Regular physical exercise, such as brisk walking or yoga, can help to encourage regular bowel motions. However, constipation can occur as a side effect from several drugs, including opioids, antidepressants, and antacids.

Speak to your healthcare provider about precautions or other choices if you're on any of these drugs.

Constipation signs include:

weekly bowel motions of little more than three

straining when having a bowel movement

eructation of lumpy or firm stools

an impression of an incomplete evacuation

abdominal discomfort or bloating

It's critical to get medical assistance if you have any of these symptoms so that your constipation's underlying cause may be identified. Changing one's lifestyle can help with some cases of constipation, while other situations could need medicine or other medical attention.

Numerous herbal treatments are available in India to aid in the prevention of constipation. Triphala, a herbal mixture made up of three different fruits, has been used for generations as a constipation treatment. Other well-liked all-natural treatments for constipation include ginger, castor oil, and aloe vera juice.

In India, a number of drugs are sold that can relieve constipation in addition to natural therapies. Constipation is frequently treated using the synthetic sugar lactulose, which attracts water into the colon. Other drugs that can induce bowel motions include bisacodyl and sodium picosulfate. However, because they might have negative side effects including diarrhea and stomach cramps, these drugs should only be given while a doctor is present.

Elderly care home provides the best possible diet to the seniors including a high-fiber diet that contains fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes to avoid constipation. Regular physical exercise, such as brisk walking or yoga, as well as maintaining hydration can help to encourage regular bowel movements. But as a side effect, several drugs, including antacids, opioids, and antidepressants, might make you constipated. Talk to the doctor on call at the elderly care home about preventive measures or other choices if you're on any of these drugs.

Finally, constipation is a common health problem in India, especially among the elderly. It is brought on by a number of things, including a low-fiber diet, inactivity, certain drugs, dehydration, and underlying medical disorders. Adopting a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, a high-fiber diet, and adequate water is crucial to preventing constipation. To identify the underlying reason and avoid any problems, it's critical to get medical assistance if you're exhibiting constipation symptoms. In India, there are a number of herbal treatments and pharmaceuticals that can aid with constipation, but they should only be taken under medical supervision.

It's critical to understand when to seek medical attention for constipation at elderly care homes, particularly if the symptoms last longer than two weeks or are accompanied by other unsettling signs and symptoms like blood in the stool, stomach discomfort, or unexplained weight loss. At The Golden Estate, you are given an opportunity to change your lifestyle with the best professionals always at your disposal.

Ayurvedic Medicine for Constipation - Kabj Hari Churn, its ingredients and benefits

In Ayurveda, constipation is a commonly recognized digestive disorder that is referred to as "Vibandha" or "Malabaddhata." It occurs when there is difficulty in passing stools, and the bowel movements become infrequent and challenging. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, views constipation as an imbalance in the body's doshas (biological energies) and attributes it mainly to an aggravation of the Vata dosha.

The concept of doshas in Ayurveda:

Vata: Governs movement, including bowel movements. It is dry, light, cold, and rough in nature.

Pitta: Governs digestion and metabolism. It is hot, sharp, and intense.

Kapha: Governs structure and lubrication in the body. It is heavy, slow, cool, and stable.

Causes of constipation according to Ayurveda:

Vata imbalance: The primary cause of constipation is an aggravated Vata dosha. When Vata becomes imbalanced, it can lead to dryness and sluggishness in the colon, resulting in difficult bowel movements.

Poor diet: Consuming foods that are dry, cold, and lacking in fiber can contribute to constipation. Additionally, irregular eating habits and excessive intake of processed and refined foods can disrupt proper digestion.

Lack of physical activity: Sedentary lifestyle and insufficient physical activity can slow down digestion and lead to constipation.

Suppression of natural urges: Ignoring the urge to defecate or suppress it due to various reasons can cause an imbalance in the colon.

Dehydration: Inadequate water intake can result in dry and hard stools, making them difficult to pass.

Mental factors: Stress, anxiety, and emotional disturbances can also influence bowel movements through the gut-brain axis.

Warm, cooked, and moist foods are preferred over cold and dry ones. Drinking warm water throughout the day helps to maintain proper hydration and aids digestion.

Lifestyle modifications: Regular physical activity, yoga, and pranayama (breathing exercises) are recommended to improve digestion and promote bowel regularity.

Oil massages: Abhyanga, or self-massage with warm sesame oil or castor oil, is beneficial in calming the Vata dosha and enhancing bowel movements.

Hemorrhoids Treatment in Dubai: A Complete Guide to Relief and Recovery

Contact Us On: +971 52 747 2414

Hemorrhoids, also known as piles, are a common medical condition that affects people worldwide, including those in Dubai. These swollen veins in the rectum or anus can cause discomfort, itching, bleeding, and even pain. While hemorrhoids are not life-threatening, they can significantly affect the quality of life if left untreated. Fortunately, Dubai offers a wide range of treatment options, from home remedies to advanced medical procedures.

In this article, we will explore the causes, symptoms, and the best hemorrhoids treatment in dubai, helping you make an informed decision about managing this condition effectively.

Understanding Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids occur when the veins around the anus or lower rectum become swollen due to increased pressure. They are categorized into two main types:

1. Internal Hemorrhoids

Located inside the rectum.

Typically painless but may cause bleeding during bowel movements.

Can prolapse (bulge) outside the anus in severe cases.

2. External Hemorrhoids

Found under the skin around the anus.

Can be painful, itchy, and sometimes form blood clots (thrombosed hemorrhoids).

Common Causes and Risk Factors

Several factors contribute to the development of hemorrhoids, including:

✔ Straining During Bowel Movements – Often caused by chronic constipation or diarrhea. ✔ Prolonged Sitting – Sitting for long hours, especially on the toilet, increases pressure on rectal veins. ✔ Low-Fiber Diet – A lack of fiber results in harder stools, leading to straining. ✔ Pregnancy – Increased pressure on pelvic veins due to the growing uterus. ✔ Obesity – Extra weight puts additional strain on blood vessels. ✔ Aging – The tissues supporting rectal veins weaken over time.

Signs and Symptoms of Hemorrhoids

Symptoms vary depending on the type and severity of the hemorrhoids. Common signs include:

Painless bleeding during bowel movements.

Itching and irritation in the anal region.

Pain or discomfort, especially while sitting.

Swelling or lumps near the anus.

Mucus discharge after a bowel movement.

If symptoms persist or worsen, seeking medical attention is highly recommended.

Effective Hemorrhoid Treatments Available in Dubai

Dubai offers numerous treatment options ranging from home remedies to minimally invasive and surgical procedures. The choice of treatment depends on the severity of the condition and personal preferences.

1. Home Remedies and Lifestyle Changes

For mild hemorrhoids, lifestyle adjustments can significantly reduce symptoms and prevent recurrence:

Increase Fiber Intake – Eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to soften stools.

Stay Hydrated – Drinking enough water helps maintain regular bowel movements.

Avoid Straining – Don’t force bowel movements; let them happen naturally.

Use Warm Sitz Baths – Soaking the affected area in warm water for 10–15 minutes can soothe irritation.

Apply Cold Compresses – Helps reduce swelling and discomfort.

Exercise Regularly – Staying active prevents constipation and improves circulation.

2. Over-the-Counter (OTC) Medications

Several OTC products can provide temporary relief:

Topical Creams and Ointments – Containing ingredients like hydrocortisone or witch hazel to reduce inflammation.

Suppositories – Help relieve internal hemorrhoid symptoms.

Pain Relievers – Such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen to manage discomfort.

3. Minimally Invasive Procedures

If home treatments and OTC medications do not work, several minimally invasive procedures are available in Dubai:

✔ Rubber Band Ligation – A small rubber band is placed around the hemorrhoid to cut off its blood supply, causing it to shrink and fall off. ✔ Sclerotherapy – A chemical solution is injected into the hemorrhoid to shrink it. ✔ Infrared Coagulation (IRC) – Uses infrared light to cut off blood flow to the hemorrhoid, causing it to shrink. ✔ Laser Therapy – A modern, effective method that uses laser energy to remove hemorrhoids with minimal pain and recovery time.

These procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home the same day.

4. Surgical Treatments for Severe Cases

For severe or recurrent hemorrhoids, surgical options may be necessary:

🔹 Hemorrhoidectomy – A surgical procedure to remove large or persistent hemorrhoids. This is highly effective but requires a longer recovery time. 🔹 Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy – A less painful surgery that repositions hemorrhoids and cuts off their blood supply, causing them to shrink.

How to Prevent Hemorrhoids?

Taking preventive measures can reduce the risk of developing hemorrhoids:

✔ Eat More Fiber – Helps soften stools and prevent constipation. ✔ Stay Hydrated – Drink at least 8 glasses of water daily. ✔ Don’t Delay Bowel Movements – Going when you feel the urge prevents straining. ✔ Avoid Sitting for Long Periods – Take breaks to move around, especially if you have a desk job. ✔ Exercise Regularly – Improves digestion and prevents weight gain.

Finding the Right Treatment in Dubai

Dubai has excellent healthcare facilities with experienced proctologists (specialists in hemorrhoid treatment). When choosing a clinic or hospital, consider:

The doctor’s experience and expertise.

Available treatment options (minimally invasive vs. surgical).

Patient reviews and feedback.

Cost and insurance coverage.

Booking a consultation with a specialist can help you determine the most suitable treatment for your condition.

Conclusion

Hemorrhoids treatment in Dubai is a common but manageable condition that affects many people. Dubai offers a range of treatment options, from simple lifestyle changes to advanced medical procedures. If you’re experiencing persistent discomfort, consulting a medical professional is the best step toward relief and recovery. By making dietary adjustments, staying hydrated, and practicing good bathroom habits, you can prevent hemorrhoids from recurring in the future.

Ayurvedic Remedies for Bhagandhara: A Holistic Approach to Healing Fistula

Bhagandhara, commonly known as fistula-in-ano, is a painful and recurring condition that affects the anal region. It is characterized by an abnormal passage between the anal canal and the outer skin, often leading to discomfort, pus discharge, and infection. According to Ayurveda, Bhagandhara is classified under the eight major diseases (Ashta Mahagada) due to its chronic and complicated nature. Ayurveda offers a holistic and natural approach to treating fistula, focusing on detoxification, herbal medicines, dietary modifications, and specialized treatments like Ksharasutra therapy.

Understanding Bhagandhara in Ayurveda

In Ayurveda, Bhagandhara is primarily associated with an imbalance in the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. An aggravated Vata leads to dryness and irregular bowel movements, while Pitta imbalance causes inflammation and pus formation. Kapha imbalance contributes to excessive mucus secretion, leading to obstruction and infection. Identifying the root cause and treating it accordingly is essential for long-term healing.

Ayurvedic Treatments for Bhagandhara

Ayurveda offers a variety of treatments to heal Bhagandhara naturally by addressing the underlying causes and promoting tissue regeneration.

1. Ksharasutra Therapy: The Ayurvedic Surgical Method

Ksharasutra therapy is one of the most effective Ayurvedic treatments for Bhagandhara. It involves the use of a medicated alkaline thread that is inserted into the fistula tract. The thread gradually cuts and heals the tract, reducing infection and preventing recurrence. Studies have shown that Ksharasutra therapy has a higher success rate compared to conventional surgeries.

2. Herbal Remedies for Healing Fistula

Haritaki (Terminalia chebula): A powerful detoxifier that helps regulate bowel movements and prevent infection.

Neem (Azadirachta indica): Known for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, neem helps in wound healing and prevents microbial growth.

Turmeric (Curcuma longa): A natural antiseptic, turmeric reduces inflammation and supports tissue repair.

Triphala: A combination of three fruits that aids digestion and promotes healthy gut function, reducing the chances of fistula recurrence.

Aloe Vera: Helps soothe inflammation and supports wound healing.

3. Dietary Modifications to Support Healing

A balanced diet plays a crucial role in managing Bhagandhara. Ayurveda recommends a diet that pacifies aggravated doshas while improving digestion and immunity.

Consume fiber-rich foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables to promote smooth bowel movements.

Include probiotics such as buttermilk and yogurt to maintain gut health.

Avoid spicy, fried, and processed foods that can aggravate Pitta and lead to inflammation.

Drink warm herbal teas like ginger or coriander tea to aid digestion and detoxification.

4. Lifestyle Changes for Prevention and Recovery

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential for preventing and managing Bhagandhara. Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of a disciplined daily routine (Dinacharya) to keep the digestive system functioning optimally.

Practice yoga poses like Malasana (Garland Pose) and Pavanamuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose) to improve digestion.

Engage in regular physical activity to prevent constipation and maintain gut health.

Maintain proper hygiene in the anal region to prevent infection.

Follow a stress-free lifestyle with meditation and deep-breathing exercises.

Conclusion

Ayurveda offers a comprehensive and natural approach to healing Bhagandhara, focusing on herbal remedies, specialized treatments like Ksharasutra, dietary modifications, and lifestyle changes. By addressing the root cause and balancing the doshas, Ayurveda helps in long-term recovery and prevents recurrence. At VasaviAyurveda.com, we provide expert Ayurvedic consultations and personalized treatment plans to help you heal naturally. Explore our wide range of Ayurvedic remedies and experience the benefits of holistic healing.

What to Eat When Your Stomach Hurts

We have all struggled with those tough days, clutching our stomachs, and feeling miserable due to stomach pain.  An upset stomach can be used as an umbrella term for a wide range of stomach-related problems, including constipation, diarrhea, cramps, nausea or bloating. Whatever be the cause, a stomach pain is enough to ruin your day! While facing one, eating something might just be the last thing the patient might consider, and reaching out to the nearest pain reliever might appear to be the easiest option, however, what the patient eats plays a major role in determining how long the pain will last and how severe it will be. If they consume the right foods, they might ease out the symptoms, soothe irritation and help their digestive system to rest and restart, while the wrong ones can further make things go worse. With all that advice pouring in from all sides regarding a healthy balanced diet​, different fruits and vegetables, dalia etc, we know it can get rather confusing so as to know which foods the patient should actually have! In this article, we will discuss in detail about the different food items a patient can eat to ease out the symptoms, based on what is causing them.

Constipation:

Constipation is the condition when a person cannot have the bowel movements to clear the waste out of their digestive system. This almost always can go hand in hand with gas and bloating, because of the pressure that is built up in the stomach. In case of constipation, Fibre can prove to be the best friend of the patient. The soluble fibre present in various food items breaks down in the digestive tract and causes the stool to become softer, hence, helping in easy bowel movement. healthy nutrition diet​ that the patient can have during such times include:

Vegetables including broccoli, green beans and carrots.

Fruits such as berries, apples, and pears

Quinoa and whole grains such as oatmeal, whole wheat bread, dalia etc.

Foods that are low in fibre, such as fast and processed foods, should be completely avoided in the cases of constipation.

Diarrhea:

If the cause of upset stomach or discomfort is diarrhea, it might be very difficult for the patient to think that eating anything might help the symptoms ease out. However, in such cases, BRAT diet is usually recommended. It involves the food items that are easily digestible and gentle on the digestive system. This diet includes food items like:

Bananas

Rice

Applesauce

Toast 

Even if diarrhea is being caused by food poisoning or flu, sticking to the BRAT diet for a couple of days or more might help relieve the symptoms. However, this diet should not be adopted for a longer time since the body needs different kinds of nutrients from a healthy balanced diet​. On the other hand, foods like acidic fruits, alcohol, dairy products, and spicy or sugary foods can make the condition worse.

Nausea or Vomiting :

Nausea is a common condition which can be associated with various issues. If the patient is experiencing very frequent and longer nausea repeatedly, they must get help from their healthcare provider. However, even if it does not occur often and is not caused by something serious, it can still be frustrating! Sometimes it might be a better option to let the stomach rest, while during others, consuming ORS and other sources of hydration frequently might help.  Sometimes, ginger can also prove to be greatly helpful in providing relief from the symptoms of nausea. 

Cramps: 

Stomach cramps can be a symptom of various issues such as menstruation, bowel problems etc. If a patient gets severe cramps every month before her periods, keeping a track of her periods and making specific changes or modifications to the diet might help. healthy balanced diet​ including food items such as beans, whole grains, prune juice, and other fruits might be highly beneficial in alleviating the pain. During such conditions, foods such as dairy products, fatty food items, processed food, and highly refined grains should be avoided.

Hence, it is quite clear that different reasons for an upset stomach have their own different set of food items that can help ease out the discomfort and pain. Making a healthy balanced diet​ and lifestyle modifications can dramatically reduce a person’s instances of stomach discomfort, and promote overall digestive health. In case of any doubts or if the symptoms occur more frequently, the patient should consider taking a consultation with their stomach doctor near me​.

If you are looking for the best Gastroenterologist near me​ or Best stomach doctor in Mohali, you have just landed on the right page. Sohana hospital Mohali boasts of the world’s most advanced, cutting-edge technology and North India’s leading Gastroenterologists, who provide the most comprehensive and holistic care for all the GI ailments of the patients in the region, with the most patient-centric approach.

Soothing Your Gut: Foods, Habits, and Supplements to Ease Digestive Discomfort

Digestive discomfort can often be managed by adjusting what, when, and how you eat. Whether you’re dealing with bloating, heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or irregular bowel movements, strategic dietary choices and lifestyle tweaks can make a significant difference. Here’s a guide to foods and habits that may help—or hinder—your digestive health.

Foods to Embrace

Gentle, Nutrient-Rich Options

Cooked vegetables: Carrots, zucchini, and spinach (steamed or roasted) are easier to digest than raw veggies.

Low-FODMAP fruits: Bananas, blueberries, and oranges are less likely to trigger bloating.

Oatmeal and quinoa: These soluble fibers absorb water, softening stool and easing constipation.

Probiotic-Rich Foods

Yogurt (with live cultures), kefir, sauerkraut, and miso support gut microbiome balance, which may alleviate IBS and diarrhea.

Ginger and Peppermint

Ginger tea or grated ginger in meals can reduce nausea and inflammation.

Peppermint oil capsules (enteric-coated) may relax the gut lining, easing IBS cramps.

Bone Broth

Rich in collagen and amino acids, it may help repair gut lining and reduce inflammation.

Hydration

Drink water throughout the day to prevent constipation. Herbal teas (chamomile, fennel) can also soothe digestion.

Eating Habits to Adopt

Mindful Eating

Chew thoroughly (aim for 20–30 chews per bite) to reduce digestive workload.

Avoid distractions (phones, TV) to prevent overeating.

Smaller, Frequent Meals

Large portions can overwhelm the digestive system. Opt for 4–5 smaller meals spaced evenly.

Timing Matters

Eat your last meal 2–3 hours before bedtime to prevent acid reflux.

Avoid drinking large amounts of liquid during meals to prevent diluting stomach acids.

Post-Meal Rituals

A short walk after eating can stimulate peristalsis (muscle contractions) and reduce bloating.

Supplements to Consider

Probiotics

Strains like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium may improve gut flora. Look for high-quality brands with CFU (colony-forming units) in the billions.

Digestive Enzymes

Enzymes like amylase, lipase, and lactase can aid digestion if your body struggles to break down certain foods (e.g., lactose).

Fiber Supplements

Psyllium husk or acacia fiber can regulate bowel movements, but start slowly to avoid gas.

Magnesium

Magnesium citrate or glycinate may relieve constipation by drawing water into the intestines.

L-Glutamine

An amino acid that supports gut lining repair, often used for leaky gut or post-infection recovery.

Caution: Always consult a healthcare provider before starting supplements, especially if you have chronic conditions or take medications.

Foods to Avoid

Common Irritants

Processed foods: Artificial additives, trans fats, and excess sugar disrupt gut balance.

High-FODMAP foods: Beans, onions, garlic, and certain fruits (e.g., apples) may worsen bloating in IBS.

Spicy or acidic foods: Can trigger heartburn in sensitive individuals.

Caffeine and Alcohol

Both stimulate acid production and dehydrate the body, worsening reflux or diarrhea.

Dairy (for lactose-intolerant individuals)

Swap for plant-based alternatives like almond or oat milk.

Artificial Sweeteners

Sorbitol, mannitol, and xylitol (found in sugar-free gum) can cause gas and diarrhea.

Fried or Greasy Foods

High-fat meals slow digestion, leading to discomfort and acid reflux.

When to Seek Medical Advice

Consult a healthcare professional if you experience:

Persistent pain, blood in stool, unexplained weight loss, or severe vomiting.

Symptoms that don’t improve with dietary changes, as they may indicate conditions like celiac disease, Crohn’s, or SIBO.

Final Tips

Experiment: Keep a food diary to pinpoint personal triggers.

Gradual changes: Introduce new foods or supplements slowly to avoid flare-ups.

Balance: Focus on variety and moderation rather than restrictive diets.

By combining gut-friendly foods, mindful habits, and targeted supplements, you can nurture your digestive system and reduce discomfort. Remember, everyone’s gut is unique—listen to your body and work with a dietitian or doctor for personalized guidance. more
