I've been having pain in my lower abdomen and testicles, and English medicine doctors diagnosed it as reducible right inguinal hernia. They recommended clinical correlation, but I'm really scared of surgery. Is there any ayurvedic treatment that can cure hernia without needing an operation? I'm worried about the pain and want to explore non-surgical options.

While ayurvedic treatments can help manage the pain and discomfort associated with a reducible inguinal hernia, they are unlikely to cure the condition without surgery. Surgery is typically the primary treatment for inguinal hernias to prevent complications and ensure a complete repair. Ayurvedic approaches may provide symptom relief and support the body's healing process, but they are not a substitute for a surgical repair

View allI had surgery last month and still can't walk much because my stitches hurt. I've noticed I'm starting to gain weight since I'm not as active. What can I do to manage this without putting too much strain on my healing body?
To manage post-surgery weight gain during a period of limited mobility, focus on a healthy, balanced diet, monitor your calorie intake, and gradually reintroduce gentle movement as tolerated. Avoid overeating or consuming excessive sugary or fatty foods. Staying hydrated and getting enough rest can also help.

I've got this boil near my groin, right over the left thigh, and it's been bothering me for about 56 days now. A couple of days ago, I noticed it turned into this red and soft spot, about 0.3 by 0.3 cm in size, surrounded by a hard area measuring 4 by 2 cm. It really started to hurt a couple of days back, so I consulted a surgeon. He suggested I take cefixime and diclofenac tablets, along with using SU-MAG ointment for dressing. The next day, I applied a good amount of SU-MAG and dressed the boil, and by the end of the day, the pain was gone. But now, the boil has an opening. I'm a bit unsure about what to do next. Should I keep using the SU-MAG dressing even though the boil is open, or should I stop? Or maybe switch to Betadine dressing? Is it better to go back to the surgeon for further drainage? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give!
You should now switch to Betadine dressing to help prevent infection and promote healing of the open wound. Betadine is an antiseptic solution that can be applied to the affected area. Make sure to clean the area gently before applying the Betadine dressing. If you experience any worsening symptoms or signs of infection, it would be advisable to consult the surgeon again for further evaluation and management.
