Night leg cramps: Has it ever happened to you that in the middle of a deep sleep at night, you suddenly feel a strong pull in your leg and your sleep gets broken? Some people call it 'nerve cramps', while others call it cramps. Sometimes this pain is so severe that it becomes difficult to even move your legs for a few minutes.

If you also often face this problem, then this article can be helpful for you. Let us know from Ayurvedic experts why the veins of the legs swell while sleeping at night, and also know what can be done to get rid of it.

What do the experts say?

During a conversation with NDTV, Director of Jiva Ayurveda and famous Ayurvedacharya Dr. Pratap Chauhan said, 'Usually people forget this, thinking it to be minor fatigue, but from the point of view of Ayurveda, it is a sign that Vata dosha is increasing in the body and the nerves are not getting adequate nutrition.'

Dr Chauhan says, 'Every day, many patients come to me with this problem. When I talk to them about this, I find some problems in the lifestyle of almost everyone. Some use mobile phones till late at night and do not get proper sleep, while some work standing all day. All these reasons gradually weaken the nerves and muscles, and due to this, problems like sudden strain, jolts, or nerve pain start occurring at night.'

How to get rid of it?

Dr. Pratap Chauhan said that, for this, it is first necessary to improve the lifestyle. Have a good sleep and eat healthy food. Apart from this, you can include Ashwagandha, Shatavari, and Mishri in your diet.

For this, take these three things in equal quantity and grind them finely. Take the prepared powder in the morning and at night, before sleeping, one spoon each with lukewarm milk.

How does this recipe benefit?

• According to Ayurvedacharya, Ashwagandha gives strength to the body and calms the Vata dosha.
• Asparagus nourishes the nerves and keeps the body cool.
• At the same time, sugar candy helps in digestion and balances the effect of the medicine.
• Dr Chauhan says veins start swelling due to a lack of water. In such a situation, drink enough water.

By leading a healthy lifestyle and following this effective remedy regularly, you can get relief from the problem of varicose veins, and it will also improve your overall health.
