How to treat a small abdominal lump in a 65-year-old female with Ayurvedic medicines?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

It sounds like an epigastric hernia. Usually, the epigastric hernia contains fatty tissues, which may cause a lump-like structure in the sternal region. Increased abdominal pressure may worsen the condition. It occurs in people who have weak abdominal muscles and cavities. Being overweight is also a reason. Surgery is the only way to treat an epigastric hernia in case of emergencies like severe pain or strangulation. Kindly notice whether the lump is growing and also do a cough test.

However, I have a few questions, Is there any pain while pressing the lump? Is the lump enlarging while coughing or sneezing?

And I also suggest you to make her follow the instructions like,

1. Avoid intake of fat-rich, oily, and spicy foods.

2. Please avoid lifting weights.

3. Give her light food and make sure she passes motion easily.

Also, I suggest these ayurvedic medicines, Chitrakadi Vati (Chitraka, Maricha, Pippali) tablet twice daily after food. Kanchanar Guggulu (Kanchanar, Haritaki, Bibhitaka) twice daily after food. Sukumaram Kashayam (Punarnava, Dasamoola, Trnapanchamoola) one tablespoon twice daily before food. Let her take these medications for two months. Then, kindly consult a specialist, talk with them and take the medications with their consent. Also, I suggest you to get an abdominal USG (ultrasonography) to confirm the diagnosis.

I hope this has helped you.
