which treatment is best for psoriasis - #37487
I am struggling with psoriasis for the past few years and it’s been really tough. I tried a bunch of over-the-counter creams but honestly, they only work for like a day, then my skin gets all flaky and itchy again. Recently, I went to a dermatologist and they suggested some topical treatments, but I feel like I’m just masking the problem rather than actually solving it. I read somewhere that lifestyle changes and diet can help too? I’ve been doing some research on natural remedies and someone mentioned that Ayurveda could be beneficial for psoriasis. I don’t really know much about it tho. One thing that’s bugging me is, which treatment is best for psoriasis? Is there a specific Ayurvedic approach that works? Like, are there certain herbs or dietary changes that are more effective? I’d love to get clearer skin and not feel self-conscious all the time. I've been looking into things like turmeric and neem oil because I heard they might have healing properties, but I am not sure if just these are enough. Honestly, I’m feeling kind of overwhelmed. If anyone out there has experience with Ayurveda for psoriasis, I could really use some advice!

In Ayurveda, psoriasis is linked to the imbalance of Vata and Kapha doshas combined with impurities (ama) that affect the blood and skin tissues. To address this, we aim to rebalance these doshas, cleanse the system, and strengthen Agni (digestive fire). A multi-faceted approach can be particularly effective for psoriasis.
Firstly, dietary adjustments are key. Consider incorporating more bitter, astringent, and light foods into your meals. This means favoring green leafy vegetables, whole grains like barley or quinoa, and reducing oily, spicy, and fermented foods. Ayurveda strongly advises against consuming incompatible food combinations, known as viruddha ahara, such as milk with fish or yogurt at night.
Turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties, can benefit psoriasis. You can take turmeric with black pepper, which enhances its absorption, ideally in warm water or milk twice daily. Neem is another beneficial herb; internal neem supplements or neem oil for topical application can aid in detoxifying the skin and blood.
For personalized herbal suggestions, consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner who can recommend specific formulations like Mahamanjishthadi kwath or Praanada griha. Oils such as Karanja or coconut oil may soothe the skin. Coconut oil can be applied directly to affected areas to reduce dryness and itching.
Lifestyle changes such as maintaining regular routines and getting adequate sleep are crucial. Try stress-reducing activities like yoga and meditation to calm the mind, which in turn indirectly benefits the skin’s health.
Panchakarma, the Ayurvedic detoxification process, might be beneficial, though it requires supervision by qualified Ayurvedic practitioners. Procedures like Virechana (therapeutic purgation) and Rakta moksha (bloodletting) are specific to clearing toxins from the body and require careful assessment beforehand.
Lastly, avoid suppressing natural urges such as sneezing or yawning, as this can disrupt body harmony. Always consult with an experienced Ayurvedic physician to tailor treatments to your unique constitution and symptoms.
