Help with Facial Breakouts After Using Eladi Products - #50206

Client_0ef27f

I used eladi kera oil and eladi choornam on face 3 days continuously. When I felt a pimple on my face, i stopped the oil and used the choornam for another 2 day. But when I noticed the breakouts increasing, i stopped the choornam as well. Now my jawline is covered with breakouts and some on my forehead as well. Please tell me what to do now

-It sounds like your skin reacted to the products — likely irritation or pore clogging, especially if your skin is acne-prone. Eladi Keram is an oil-based formulation, and oils can sometimes clog pores or trigger breakouts in acne-prone skin. Eladi Choornam can also be a bit strong or drying, which may irritate skin and worsen inflammation. Since you’ve already stopped both (good decision). —Since this flare started after using Eladi Keram and Eladi Choornam, this looks like Pitta-Kapha aggravated Mukhadushika (acne) with local irritation. –External Treatment (Bahya Chikitsa) Wash face with lukewarm water + mild herbal cleanser (neem-based) – BD —Lepa (for 7 days): Lodhra churna Rakta chandan Yashtimadhu Mix with rose water. Apply thin layer once daily for 15 mins → wash off. –Spot application (if inflamed): Paste of turmeric + small pinch of trikatu in honey Apply only on active lesions at night. ❌ Avoid oils on face ❌ Avoid scrubbing / squeezing ------ Internal Medicines (Abhyantara Chikitsa) 1)Gandhaka Rasayana – 250 mg 1 tab BD after food with lukewarm water 2)Mahamanjisthadi Kashayam – 15 ml + 45 ml( mnz thrice of kashya) warm water BD before food 3)Avipattikar Churna – 3 gm at bedtime with warm water (If acidity / Pitta signs present) Duration: 21 days (review after 15 days) ----- Pathya (Diet Advice) ✔ Light, warm, easily digestible food ✔ Moong dal, lauki, tori ✔ Warm water throughout day ❌ Curd ❌ Fried/spicy food ❌ Excess sugar ❌ Bakery items ❌ Late-night meals ------Lifestyle Advice Sleep before 10:30 pm Avoid excessive screen heat Manage stress Do not touch/pick lesions ----- Follow-up: After 15 days

Your breakouts happened because Eladi oil is heavy (oily) Continuous use blocked pores Caused acne on jawline & forehead What To Do Now Stop both oil & choornam completely Do not apply anything oily. Wash face Use mild herbal face wash Wash 2 times daily only (not more) Apply Pure aloe vera gel (thin layer) OR Small amount of neem gel on pimples Drink warm water Avoid fried, spicy, bakery food Reduce sugar Take Triphala at night (1 tsp) Do not squeeze pimples No heavy creams No frequent touching Usually settles in 7–10 days.
