Kanika, it sounds like you’re dealing with a common issue in Ayurveda, which links skin problems to an imbalance of the body’s internal energies. The symptoms you describe—rashes from sun exposure and itching—are strongly associated with an aggravated Pitta dosha.
Here’s an overview of the Ayurvedic perspective on your concerns, drawing from the principles of balancing Pitta and detoxification.
Understanding Skin Allergies in Ayurveda In Ayurveda, healthy skin is a reflection of balanced doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), good digestion, and clean blood. When Pitta dosha—which governs heat, metabolism, and transformation—is imbalanced, it can lead to heat-related skin conditions. The sun’s heat can further inflame this imbalance, causing reactions like rashes, redness, and itching. This is often linked to the presence of toxins, or ama, in the body that have entered the bloodstream.
Ayurvedic Remedies for Skin Allergies (Pitta-Balancing) The goal is to cool the body from the inside and soothe the skin externally. 1. Dietary Changes: Favor Cooling Foods: Incorporate sweet, bitter, and astringent tastes. Think of foods like cucumbers, melons, leafy greens, coconut water, and sweet fruits like grapes and pomegranates. Avoid Pitta-Aggravating Foods: Reduce or eliminate spicy, sour, and fermented foods. This includes chili, tomatoes, vinegar, and yogurt. Also, limit caffeine, alcohol, and excessive salt. Herbs and Spices: Use cooling spices like coriander, fennel, and cumin in your cooking.
2. External Applications: Cooling Pastes: Apply a paste of sandalwood, neem, or turmeric mixed with cool water or rose water to the affected areas. These herbs have anti-inflammatory and soothing properties.
Aloe Vera: Apply fresh aloe vera gel directly to the skin to provide instant relief from heat and itching.
Neem Water Bath: Boil a handful of neem leaves in water, let it cool, and then add it to your bath water. This can help cleanse the skin and reduce irritation
Internal Herbal Remedies: powerful blood-purifying herbs like Neem and Manjistha. These herbs work from the inside out to cleanse the bloodstream and support skin health. Triphala is also commonly used to cleanse the digestive tract and promote overall detoxification.
General Lifestyle Recommendations Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of warm water throughout the day to help flush out toxins. Manage Stress: Practices like meditation and gentle yoga can help calm the mind and reduce stress, which is a major factor in aggravating Pitta dosha. Limit Sun Exposure: While you need some sunlight for Vitamin D, avoid prolonged exposure, especially during the peak hours of 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Use protective clothing and a hat when you are outside.
Start with 1) manjishtadi kashaya 10 ml after food with water 2 times
2) triphala churna 1tsf bedtime
Hello Kanika I can understand your concern regarding sun allergy but dont. Worry we are here to help you out😊
From your description ➡️you have sun allergy (photosensitivity) which causes rashes, itching, and later dark marks (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation).
This shows that your skin is sensitive to heat and sunlight
✅Why This Happens???
➡️Excess Pitta dosha → sensitivity to sun, heat, red rashes, burning, itching. ➡️Rakta dushti (impure blood) → dark spots, pigmentation, recurrent allergies. ➡️Slow metabolism & Ama (toxins) → toxins get accumulated in body → show on skin.
✅AYURVEDIC MEDIACTIONS
1 Sarivasavam 30ml-0-30ml after food ( purifies blood, useful in skin allergies)
2 Manjisthadi ks tab 2-0-2 after food very effective for blood purification & reducing pigmentation.
3 Drakshadi Ks tab 2-0-2 after food ( balances pitta)
✅ AYURVEDIC HOME REMEDIES
1. Aloe vera pulp or gel – Apply fresh pulp on affected areas daily for cooling & healing.
2. Sandalwood + Rose water paste – Apply on face/hands after sun exposure to reduce redness and prevent dark marks.
3. Neem & Turmeric paste – Works as natural antiseptic, prevents recurrent rashes.
4. Coriander water – Soak coriander seeds overnight, strain and drink in morning to cool Pitta and purify blood.
5. Detox Drink – Warm water + ½ tsp turmeric + few drops of lemon, once daily, helps in cleansing liver and blood.
✅DIET AND LIFESTYLE CHANGE
👉Prefer cooling foods – cucumber, watermelon, gourd, coriander, green leafy vegetables.
👉Drink plenty of water & coconut water for hydration.
❌Avoid spicy, oily, fried foods, excess tea/coffee, alcohol – they increase Pitta & skin sensitivity.
👉Protect skin from direct harsh sun; use natural sunscreen like aloe vera gel or coconut oil.
👉Regular bowel clearance is important for detox → include fibrous foods & 1 tsp triphala powder at night (if constipation).
Your problem is mainly due to Pitta imbalance & impure blood leading to sun allergy and dark marks.
Detoxification in Ayurveda means removing toxins (Ama), purifying blood, and balancing Pitta.
With regular use of blood-purifying remedies, cooling diet, and gentle skincare, your rashes and marks will gradually reduce, and your skin will become clearer.
Wish you a good skin😊
Warm. Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO KANIKA,
You are experiencing -Rashes and itching in the sun-> this means your body heat (Pitta dosha) rises when exposed to sunlight -Dark marks after rash-> when pitta and blood are imbalanced, they leave pigmentation after inflammation -Slow healing of marks-> suggests that toxins are circulating in blood, and your skin’s natural healing is affected
In Ayurveda, this is described as pita - rakta dushti (impurity In blood + excess heat) -Think of it as your blood carrying too much heat + toxins -> showing up on your skin as rashes, itching, and marks
TREATMENT GOALS -purify blood remove heat and toxins -calm pitta reduce sensitivity to sunlight and heat -soothe skin externally reduce rashes, itching, marks -support digestion and liver main source of toxins if weak -promote natural skin healing and prevent recurrence

Rashes and itching due to sun exposure could be due to a Pitta imbalance in Ayurveda. Pitta dosha, associated with heat and transformation, can lead to skin-related issues when aggravated. To soothe these symptoms, consider cooling your body internally and externally. Start incorporating cooling foods in your diet like cucumbers, melons, coconut water, and leafy greens. Avoid spicy, oily and fried foods especially during hot months.
For immediate relief from itching and to prevent dark spots, go for natural topical applications. Applying aloe vera gel directly on the affected areas could help. It’s cooling and soothing. You can also try a mix of sandalwood powder and rose water as a face pack which is known to calm Pitta and refresh skin. Keep your skin well-moisturized and hydrated throughout the day, to prevent it from drying out and aggravating the rash.
Regarding the dark marks, give turmeric a try. It’s natural lightener and anti-inflammatory. Mix turmeric with yogurt or raw honey to form paste and apply on the affected areas for about 10-15 minutes before rinsing it off. However, make sure you’re not allergic to turmeric before widespread application.
Detoxification in Ayurveda is known as Panchakarma, but you can begin with milder home routines. Drinking warm lemon water first thing in the morning is one simple practice to cleanse your system. Try to maintain regular eating and sleeping schedules to keep your digestive fire, or Agni, balanced. Including fibrous fruits and vegetables like apples, papaya and carrots in your diet can naturally support detox.
Exercise also plays role in detoxification. Gentle yoga and exercises or brisk walking can stimulate lymphatic drainage and sweating, promoting detox through skin. Ensure you’re drinking enough water throughout - hydration supports kidney function in detox.
When making lifestyle or dietary changes, it’s always prided to harmonize with your individual needs and seasons. If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s essential to consult with healthcare provider for thorough evaluation and personalized treatment.
Just use 1) syp. Chandanadi asav 15ml+15ml lukewarm water subha sham khane ke baad
For 15 days
Haridra khanda -1/2 tsp with warm water twice daily after food Neemghan vati Giloyghan vati-1 tab each twice daily after food with lukewarm water Triphala churna-1 tsp with warm water at night Drink plenty of fluids
Sun-induced skin allergies and persistent itching, often linked to pitta imbalance, can be quite challenging. The heat of the sun exacerbates pitta dosha, leading to rashes and itching. Such conditions may require both internal and external cooling remedies. Topically, you might consider using a paste of sandalwood or a mixture of neem oil with coconut oil to soothe irritated areas. These have cooling properties and can be applied to affected spots. Application should be generous, and left on for about 20-30 minutes before gently washing off. It’s key not to overdo washing, else it might irritate further.
For lightening the dark marks that remain, turmeric mixed with milk or water can work as a natural and gentle exfoliant. However, it’s important to apply this consistently for genuine results, but at the same time, avoid irritating the skin more.
Now, regarding detoxification, or cleansing, of the body, the aim is to balance the doshas by eliminating accumulated toxins, known as “ama”. Start with promoting healthy digestion, as it is central to removing toxins. Triphala is an excellent herbal formulation aiding digestion and effective in gentle detoxification. It’s reasonable to take one teaspoon mixed with warm water before bed to help in cleansing the digestive tract.
Including more fresh fruits and vegetables can support detox as well — particularly those with inherent cooling properties like cucumber and watermelon. Also, sipping herbal teas made of fennel or coriander can restore balance and help drain out pitta.
Although these simple steps can help in managing your symptoms, it’s essential to check in with a health practitioner if symptoms persist. This ensures there aren’t more serious underlying issues. Good skin and system health often starts with listening to what your body needs, so these steps combined with practical sun protection should serve you well.
