Paget’s disease of bone (PAJ-its) affects the human body’s normal recycling process. Here, the old bone tissue is superseded by new bone tissue as over time, the bones can get fragile and misshapen. The most pompous areas of the body are the pelvis, legs, skull, and spine. The risk factors mainly include aging. However, it is not a very ordinary constraint, and broken bones, hearing loss, and pinched nerve spine are some of the intricacies found. The etiological factors of the disease are unknown and studies suspect a combination of environmental and genetic factors and genes linked to the origin of this disease. This disease undergoes 3 phases namely Mixed, Osteolytic and Osteosclerotic. Bisphosphonates are the main medications that are used widely to strengthen weakened bones and surgery can be done in complicated situations. Age, sex, national origin, and family history act as hazard factors, and outlying complications include osteoarthritis, fractures and deformities, neurological problems, heart failure, and bone cancer. X-Ray, Blood test, and Blood scan can be done to diagnose the condition.

Signs and Symptoms of Paget's Disease

Since this condition urges new tissue growth and causes the body to develop new bone faster than normal, impulsive remodeling produces less organized and vulnerable bones that can easily fracture, cause deformities, and intense bone pain. The symptoms include:

Pain in your bones and joints
Tingling and weakness in an extremity
Bone deformities
Unexplained hearing loss, especially if it’s only on one side

Ayurveda Treatment for Paget's Disease

The science of life i.e Ayurveda relies on certain principles like Dosha, Dhatu, Mahabhuta, etc. Among these, the Dhatus(tissue) plays a vital role in endorsing the health care of the body. These Dhatus are 7 in number starting from Rasa till Shukra that. Among these dhatus, Asthi dhatu is the one that is linked to Paget’s disease. The depletion or decrease in bone tissue is defined as the Asthi Dhatu Kshaya. The Asthi dhatu is compared to bone tissue, which is fostered by Medo data and functions as a stabilizer to the bone and its properties.

The Vata dosha is inversely proportional to the dhatu which is comprehended as ASHRAY-AASHRAYI BHAVA. Hence, a proliferation in Vata dosha induces the depletion of bone tissue. Shrama(tiredness) and Sandhi shaithilya(looseness of joints) are the common symptoms found. Since the bone tissue is nourished by the fat tissue(medo dhatu), the administration of a lubricating type of food and diet is advised. Amalaki, Guggulu, Kutki, Bhringaraj, etc are some of the Ayurvedic herbs that can be administered for the advancement of the condition.
