Medicine in India: Your Guide to Health, Treatments, and Care

When it comes to medicine in India, a system blending modern science with centuries-old traditions like Ayurveda. Also known as Indian healthcare, it’s where cutting-edge oncology meets herbal remedies, and where access to care varies widely but knowledge doesn’t have to. Whether you’re dealing with cancer treatment, a complex field with rising survival rates for some types but stubborn challenges like pancreatic cancer, or managing mental health, from depression and PTSD to the side effects of herbal supplements that can worsen anxiety, the system offers both opportunities and gaps. Orthopedic care, including knee replacements and rotator cuff repairs, is growing fast, with clear recovery timelines and patient guidelines now more available than ever.

You’ll find real answers here—not myths about apple cider vinegar cleaning your liver or miracle herbs curing everything. We cover what works, what doesn’t, and why. From IVF timelines after childbirth to whether you can shower after knee surgery, every post is grounded in what doctors and patients actually experience in India. No jargon. No fluff. Just what you need to make smarter choices about your health.
