Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Treatment by Herbal Remedies

Abstract

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a neurological disorder and risk of its occurrence increases with advancing age. More patients are found in the age group of 40 to 60 years. Women are more prone to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis than males. Untreated ALS on progression may cause certain complications in normal breathing, speaking, and brain activities. In this article, we will discuss all of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and how its symptoms can be managed with Ayurveda.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Introduction

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a nervous system disorder that weakens the body’s muscles. This occurs due to adverse impacts on brain nerve cells and the spinal cord in this disease. Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis disease is also named- Lou Gehrig’s disease. The cause of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is not yet known and there is no cure for this fatal disease. The symptoms of the disease start in the hands, feet, and extremities. Later it spread to the whole body. The nerve cells continue to be damaged, leading to the loss of functioning like swallowing, walking, speaking, and breathing, connected to neurons getting damaged. These all symptoms are painless but affect your stamina and ability to perform routine activities normally.

Ayurvedic Aspect

In Ayurveda, we correlate Muscles with Mams dhatu. Loss and weakening of muscles occur due to deformity in Mams dhatu formation that causes weakening of muscles. Mams is the third dhatu after Rasa dhatu and Rakt dhatu in the human body and is followed by the other four dhatus. Improper lifestyle and dosha involvement leads to the destruction of dhatus and causes mams destruction. Not managing the disease by showing symptoms of Mamskshya (muscle weakness) will lead to further progression of disease and certain complications. Thus cessation of disease on the destruction of mams dhatu or before it is very necessary and is the line of treatment followed by Ayurveda.

Causes

The exact cause is unknown but many causes that are assumed to be a causative factors for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis are

  • Heredity
  • Environmental factors
  • Smoking
  • Exposure to chemicals, viral infections, toxins
  • Genetic mutations

Symptoms

The symptoms of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis vary in each individual depending on the type of neurons affected

  • The symptoms start with muscles twitching and muscles weakening over time. The symptoms become worse if not managed soon. The common symptoms and signs seen are-
  • Difficulty walking
  • Falling while walking
  • Weak muscles of hands, legs, and body
  • Difficulty in doing everyday work
  • Slurred speech
  • Muscles cramps
  • Muscles twitching
  • Behavioral changes

Diagnosis

The diagnosis is difficult and needs deep evaluation through various diagnostic tests such as

  • Electromyogram (EMG)
  • Nerve conduction test
  • MRI scan
  • Blood test
  • Urine test
  • Lumbar puncture
  • Muscle biopsy

Treatment

Since there is no cure for ALS, the treatment followed for easing the symptoms includes

  • Medications for muscle spasm
  • Muscle relaxants
  • Antidepressant medications
  • Corticosteroids
  • Drugs for respiratory problems
  • Breathing care therapies
  • Physiotherapy
  • Occupational therapy

These medications cannot treat the disease but can stop the progression of symptoms that can stop the disease from getting worse. But on the other hand, these medications are chemical based and have their own side effects. To avoid such complications, Ayurveda offers you a better treatment experience to arrest the progression of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis with no side effects.

Ayurvedic Treatment

Ayurveda treatment for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis involves various protocols. These modalities improve the overall condition of the patient to a great extent.
