Hip pain can disrupt your daily life, making even simple activities like walking a challenge. One of the underlying causes of persistent hip discomfort could be Avascular Necrosis (AVN)—a condition that limits blood flow to the bones, leading to the deterioration of bone tissue. At Ayush Ayurveda, under the expert guidance of Dr. Sreeparvathy, we help you understand the root cause of your pain and offer effective Ayurvedic solutions to manage and heal AVN.

What is Avascular Necrosis (AVN)?

Avascular Necrosis, also known as osteonecrosis, occurs when the blood supply to the hip bone is disrupted. Over time, this lack of blood flow can weaken and damage the hip joint, causing:

Persistent pain in the hip, thigh, or groin

Limited range of motion

Difficulty walking or standing for extended periods

A sensation of joint stiffness or discomfort

Left untreated, AVN can progress, leading to more severe joint damage and even disability.

Ayurvedic Perspective on AVN

In Ayurveda, AVN is often associated with Asthi Dhatu Kshaya (depletion of bone tissue) and impaired Vata Dosha (imbalanced energy governing movement and structure). The holistic approach of Ayurveda aims to address the root cause of the condition, alleviate pain, and improve blood circulation to the affected areas, promoting natural healing.
