Arthritis & joint pain

According to Ayurveda mostly Joint & Muscle pains are caused by the aggravation of vata (air) dosha.

It is a condition which is caused by accumulation of ama and aggravation of vata. (Ama is a toxic by-product of improper digestion)This ama circulates in the whole body and deposits or gets collected at the sites which are weaker.

When it deposits in the joints and at the same time there is aggravation of vata , it results in a disease called amavata that all results of Joint Pains.
