Stone Diseases – Natural Solutions Through Ayurveda & Homeopathy
What Are Stones?
Stones, medically called calculi, are hard, crystal-like deposits that form in various organs due to imbalances in minerals, salts, or bile. These can occur in the kidneys, gallbladder, urinary bladder, or even salivary glands and can cause intense pain, inflammation, and infection if not treated in time.
Types of Common Stones
Kidney Stones: Mineral deposits in kidneys or urinary tract
Gallbladder Stones (Gallstones): Cholesterol or bile pigment stones in the gallbladder
Urinary Bladder Stones: Stones forming in the bladder due to urinary retention or infection
Salivary Gland Stones: Blockage in salivary ducts leading to pain and swelling
Pancreatic Stones: Seen in chronic pancreatitis, can cause digestion issues
Ayurvedic Perspective
In Ayurveda, stone diseases fall under the category of “Ashmari”, caused by dosha imbalances (mainly Vata and Kapha), along with accumulation of toxins (Ama) and poor digestion.
Irregular diet, dehydration, excess intake of salt, fried foods, or dairy are major contributors.
Ayurvedic Treatments Include:
Herbal Medicines: Use of herbs like Pashanbheda, Gokshura, Varun, Kulthi, Punarnava, and Bhumyamalaki which break down stones and flush them naturally.
Panchakarma Detox Therapies: Special procedures like Basti (medicated enema) and Virechana (purgation) remove deep-seated toxins and restore balance.
Pathya-Apathya (Dietary Guidance): Stone-preventing diet focused on hydration, reducing oxalates, and avoiding stone-forming foods.
