Arteriovenous Malformation Treatment by Herbal Remedies

Abstract

Arteriovenous malformation is a coiling or tangling of abnormal blood vessels connecting the arteries and veins of the brain. It may occur everywhere in the body but occurs most commonly in the brain. People who are suffering from this disease think that it is very difficult to treat but don’t worry we came here with a solution for you in this study. Modern science generally gives surgery as a treatment but ayurveda treats it with its tremendous herbs. Ayurveda is a system of medicine which gives you perfect treatment without any side effects. Planet ayurveda made it easy for you to cure your disease. Let us study the whole facts about AVM. 

Arteriovenous Malformation

Introduction 

Arterio-venous malformation is an abnormal connection between the arteries and veins of the body. The word arteriovenous malformation is made up of two words arterio-venous is used for channels between veins and arteries and malformation means abnormality in formation. The role of arteries is to carry oxygen rich blood from heart to all body parts and veins carry deoxygenated blood from all body parts to heart and lungs. AVM disarranges this whole vital process. AVM is less common and influences less than 1% of the total population. Once it is diagnosed it can be treated soon to prevent the complications. Ayurveda treatment is very efficient for AVM. As per ayurveda AVM is taken under raktavaha srotodushti. As arteries (dhamni) and veins (sira) are considered as updhatu (secondary tissue) of raktavaha srotas (channels involved in blood circulation).  We prefer you to take ayurvedic treatment. It treats you with natural herbal formulas without any side effects. So it is better to go for ayurvedic treatment rather than any other option.

Symptoms of AVM

AVM may not lead to any symptoms prior to the AVM rupture. AVM rupture results in hemorrhage (bleeding). Bleeding is the first sign in mostly all of the AVM.

 Symptoms other than bleeding are

  • Pain in one area or whole head
  • Seizures
  • Muscle weakness
  • Numbness in body parts

Further stage of AVM may lead to severe symptoms such as

  • Numbness or paralysis
  • Severe headache
  • Loss of vision
  • Difficulty in speaking
  • Confusion
  • Cognitive symptoms
  • Loss of coordination
  • Weakness in lower extremities
  • Dizziness
  • Back pain
  • Hallucinations

Symptoms usually begin at any age, commonly occurring between 10-40 age groups. AVM can damage body tissues, slowly build up and lead to several symptoms in early childhood. Once people suffering from AVM reach the middle age, AVM remains stable and causes symptoms less likely.

Causes of AVM

The cause is generally unknown, but in most of the cases AVM makes an appearance during baby development. The major cause of AVM is development of abnormal connections between arteries and veins but nobody understood why this happens. Maybe the problem may arise from certain genetic factors, but mostly are not usually come into.

Also some risk factors are there for AVM such as- it’s common in case of males. Beside this a family history plays a major role in the development of AVM.

Causes as per ayurveda (ch. Vi. 5/14)

  • Intake of corrosive food
  • Oily food
  • Hot food
  • Liquid food
  • Exposure to sunlight
  • Exposure to fire

Diagnosis of AVM

If you experience certain symptoms among the above mentioned symptoms don’t ignore and quickly visit the doctor. On examining your physical symptoms the doctor will prescribe you to have some diagnostic test for better and confirm diagnosis. Doctor will list you with the tests like- CT scan, MRI, MRA, angiography, etc. Don’t try to ignore these diagnostic tests, you have to visit the diagnostic center and get diagnosed. Never get anxious if the test remains positive for AVM, just visit an ayurvedic doctor and get treated within minimal time.

Ayurvedic view of AVM

As per ayurveda we consider it under raktavaha srotodushti. Let’s make you familiar with what are raktavaha srotas. Raktavaha srotas are the system that takes part in blood circulation. The reason behind why we consider AVM under raktavaha srotas dushti is as dhamni (arteries) and sira (veins) are secondary tissue of rakta (blood). So, we can deal with AVM as raktavaha srotodushti as per ayurveda.

Home Remedies for AVM

  • Iron rich foods: red meat, pork, poultry, seafood, beans, spinach, dried fruit, raisins, peas, etc. Intake of such an iron rich diet will nourish your blood and hence will improve your blood circulation.
  • Black pepper:  hot features are needed for proper circulation of blood and the black pepper is rich in hot potency. Hence, intake of black pepper will improve your blood circulation.
  • Giloy: is a great blood purifier. Intake of giloy juice in the early morning will help you in purifying your blood and improves your blood circulation.
  • Citrus fruits: all the citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C helps in healing blood vessels and improve the iron absorption. Intake of citrus fruits is highly beneficial in AVM. Citrus fruits include fruits such as- amla, orange, lemon, kiwi, etc.

Stuttering or stammering is a speech disorder or childhood onset fluency disorder. It involves frequent and significant problems with the normal fluency along with flow of speech. The people who stutter know what they want to say but face difficulty saying it. Like they may repeat or may prolong certain words, a consonant or a vowel sound. They may pause during a speech as they have reached a particular problematic word or sound.

The stammering or stuttering is common in young children as a normal part of learning to speak. The young children may stutter when their speech and language abilities are under development and can face problems to keep up with whatever they want to say.

Most Of the children outgrow this developmental stuttering. But in some cases this stuttering is also seen in adulthood also. This type of stuttering can impact self-esteem and self-confidence.

Ayurvedic View Point of Stammering or Stuttering

Stammering or stuttering can be correlated with excess of vata dosha in the body. The excess of vata dosha can interfere with the nervous transmission of signals and thus can cause problems like stammering. Moreover, the causative factors like stress, anxiety, emotional problems, inappropriate reactions by families, speech and motor difficulties are the reasons for vata aggravation as well.

So stammering can be well managed in Ayurveda using some medhya herbs. These herbs like brahmi (Bacopa monnieri), shankhpushpi (Convolvulus prostratus) and others really help in vata anulomana and also have their impact on enhancing neuron transmission.
