Can Pranayama Cure Parathyroid Tumour

I want to know whether parathyroid tumor can be cured by acupressure therapy and pranayama.

Answer
Hello Pinki,

I know from my personal experience that acupressure therapy cannot cure parathyroid tumour. It can only provide temporary relief from typical symptoms like body ache and lethargy.

Similarly, pranayama practice cannot cure parathyroid tumour.

A person suffering from parathyroid tumour should immediately consult an endocrinologist and get operated by surgeon who is experienced in this particular surgery. It will also depend whether only one or more of the four parathyroid glands are affected and how high is PTH harmone.

Once a person recovers after the surgery, doing yoga asanas and pranayama can definitely help to lead a better life and avoid any further health problem.

Hope this helps.

Namaste
Daljit
