For Ascites-- Fenugreek is the highly effective Herb. Soak 10-15 seeds of Fenugreek in water , let them be for a night. In the morning, strain the liquid and drink it. Eat raw onion in salads daily. Mangoes should also be taken to cure it. For Jaundice-- Milk Thistle is the most effective Herb. You can buy the capsules over the internet nd take these for a month.
Drink 30 ml Aloe Vera juice once day. Try this for 15 days.
A prior Discussion with your health care provider is important

Dear Dery
Dong Quai is one of the most effective Herbs. It will tone up your reproductive organs. Buy capsules and take one every day for one month. Apart from Herbs also make a regular habit of Yoga. It will improve blood circulation in your body. Drink Ginger tea once in a day.
Add Carrot juice, Parsely and Beetroot to your daily diet.
Another Herb is Fever Nut

Dear, My mother is around 80 years old. She is diabetic and osteporosis / arthritis/thyroid patient. In the past things were under control. Recently she used to pass on stool very frequently. Resultantly she feels energyless and feels oh if she is leaving the world. Doctor told us GI infection for which they administered antibiotics through dip as well as later on oral pills/capsule. We are firm believer of ayurveda and naturopathy. Can u suggest some herbs or ayurveda formulations which will help her to control her involuntary passage of stools. Moreover there are deep "Khadda" in her leg muscles. Please suggest what we should do! With kind regards,
AKC

Ashok Chadha The recommended herbs for your mother are-- One dose of Aloe 30. It is a homeopathic remedy. You may buy it from any homeopathic store. But, give her one dose only. DO NOT REPEAT.
One dose means- 4 pellets only. Once. For arthritis and muscles pain. Buy Commiphora Makul capsules. Give her one capsule everyday. Try this herb for a month. You ca buy it over the internet. Consult your heal;th care provider before trying any medicine.
