The causes of Herina
Herina occurs because of the weak abdominal muscles. There could
be many reasons for the weak condition of the muscles. Sometimes Herina is
caused immediately after birth. This condition could be congenital or due to
the underdevelopment of the muscles. Lifting heavy weights or some carelessness
in the work also damages the muscles leading to the disease. This is seen in
young males and females. Hernia is also found in some conditions where internal
pressure is more. In the smokers who cough incessantly, or in the individuals
in whom prostrate gland enlarges and in the chronic cases of constipation where
the patient has to exert more pressure in passing urine and stool. In the case
of constipation Apana Vayu becomes weak and polluted and hence the need for
using more pressure. Apana Vayu flows down and assists the excretion of urine
and stool. Because of all the above mentioned reasons the pressure on abdominal
muscles is more and this leads to hernia. The Herina in the middle age period
is because of this reason.
Because of obesity and excessive eating there is undue
stretching of abdominal muscles. The full intestines add that extra pressure.
Because of the sluggish lifestyle and lack of exercise the abdominal muscles
become loose and motionless and the abdominal organs start hanging down. This
causes the bulging of the stomach. this
condition is known as Visceroptosis. The cause of Herina in women could be the
extra pressure on abdominal muscles during pregnancy and child birth.
The Yogic Cure of hernia : The cure of hernia depends on the type and severity
of the condition. Any type of Herina should be carefully drawn back into the
abdominal region. The practice of yoga is the best means. The hernia caused due
to the heaviness of intestines and which is not chronic can be cured
effectively through yoga. Other types of Herina also can be cured through
practice of some asans and bringing changes in the life style. If it is chronic
and uncontrollable then surgery becomes essential. After recovering from the
operation yogasans can be practiced under the guidance of an adept guide. After
4 to 8 weeks of an operation some asans of pavanmuktasan part 1 can be started
and later some asans from pavanmuktasan part 2 and from the set of shakti bandh
asans and vajrasana can be added.
