Siddha, Ayurvedic and home remedies for Constipation

Before embarking on details of  named homeopathy basic medicines one by one, we now discuss some very troublesome and painful conditions called CONSTIPATION and PILES. First let us see about constipation. Many people are suffering from constipation.

Reasons for constipation are many: It may be due to sitting for a long time, sitting on resin material, travelling without break , smoking, alcohol, fast food, or due to side effects of some medicines etc.,

There is a very fine remedy in siddha and Ayurveda medicines with no side effects and easy to follow.  The name of medicine is TRIPHALA CHURNAM OR TABLETS.

If you prefer powders, consider TRIPHALA churnam (powder) take one teaspoon with hot water in empty stomach before breakfast and at bedtime. If you prefer tablets, take 2 tablets with hot water in empty stomach in the morning and 2 tabs at bedtime with hot water. Definitely you will find relief. You can take TRIPHALA medicines every day, no harm.  This TRIPHALA medicine has many other medical properties. That we will see in our later posts.

In my experience I am using this medicine since ten years and avoiding constipation. A healthy person has to pass motion freely twice a day. That is in the morning and in the evening. In that case   there won’t be constipation trouble. And no medicine is required

There is another siddha medicine called KAYAM CHURNA.  It is also very effective medicine for CONSTIPATION. Take one teaspoon powder with hot water ONLY at BEDTIME. Morning you will have free motion. Better not to exceed the dosage. If you find loose motion reduce the dosage. Link www.kayamchurna.com

So try any one of these two siddha medicines to avoid constipation problem. These medicines are available in Ayurveda medical shops.

Prevention: Prevention is anytime better than cure. To prevent constipation, take plenty of water; avoid smoking completely, also alcohol. Don’t sit continuously more than one hour. Better avoid non-veg, take greens, fibre contained vegetables and take one ripped banana at night which will help for easy bowel movement in the morning

There are medicines for constipation in homeopathy also that I will take up later. One Simple Home remedy in case of constipation is to take a teaspoon of castor oil with warm milk at bed time. This is our grandma’s treatment. It will work wonderfully. Can use whenever you feel problem is severe.

Anyhow constipation is a severe one; if you ignore it, it may lead in to piles, fissure, and fistula. So better prevent it or cure it at the earliest
