HELLO,
Ringworm is not caused by a worm. It’s a fungal infection of the ski caused by Dermatophyte fungi.
These fungi love warm, moist environment- that’s why infection often occur -during the rainy season -In areas that stay sweaty or damp (legs, folds, hands, groin, underarms) -when immunity is low, or hygiene is poor
COMMON SYMPTOMS -circular red patches with clear centre and raised edges -itching or burning sensation -dry, scaly or cracked skin in the affected area -sometimes multiple rings merge to form larger patches -In chronic cases= dark pigmentation, thickened skin, and recurrence in humid seasons
In Ayurveda, ringworm corresponds to daaru kushta- one of the kshudra kushta . The root causes is vitiation of kapha and pitta doshas, along with Rakta dhatu (blood tissue) and twak dhatu (skin tissue0
PATHOGENESIS -ulhealthy diet/lifestyle->kapha and pitta imbalance -impaired digestion-> formation of ama (toxins) -ama+vitiated doshas enter skin and blood channels -results in itching, redness, and ring like lesions
TREATMENT GOALS -remove toxins and correct digestion/metabolism -balance the aggravated kapha and pitta doshas -purify the blood -destroy fungal infection externally and prevent recurrence -improve skin health and immunity
MANAGEMENT PLAN
1) SHODHANA CHIKITSA (cleansing/detoxification) If the infection is chronic, purification helps remove deep -seated toxins
A) VIRECHANA KARMA= herbal purgation -removes excess pitta and toxins from the liver and intestines -take 1 tsp of castor oil in warm milk at night twice weeekly =internal cleansing to prevent recurrence

4) MAHAMANJISTHADI KAHSAYA= 15ml + equal water twice daily before meals for 2 months =cools body, reduces inflammation and itching
5) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water =regulates digestion , mild detoxifier
EXTERNAL TREATMENT
1) NIMBADI TAILA= apply thin layer twice daily =anti fungal, relieves itching
2) HERBAL PASTE= mix neem powder + turmeric+ khadira churna with lemon juice or water =apply on affected area for 30-40 min daily, then wash with lukewarm water =destroys fungus, dries lesion
3) BATHING WATER= boil neem leaves or triphala in water and use it for bathing =cleanses skin, prevents spread
4) HOME MADE ANTIFUNGAL POWDER= mix talc free base + triphala churna or Karanja churna =keeps skin dry and infection free
LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIOS -keep affected areas Clean and dry -use separate towel and clothes -wear loose, cotton garments -change undergarments daily - get adequate sleep -wash hands and feet properly after returning from outside
AVOID -excess sweating and humidity exposure -sharing clothes or towels -tight synthetic clothing -scratchig lesions -sleepig during day -applying steroid creams they worsen fungal infections
DIET -light, easily digestible meals- moog dal, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, bittergourd -whole grains, barely, old rice -bitter tasting vegetables- neem, karela, methi -fresh fruits like pomegranate, apple -drink boiled and cooked neem leaf water or turmeric water

Ringworm infections thribe in damp and humid conditions, which makes the rainy season a perfect setup for it. Ayurveda views skin conditions through the lens of imbalances in the doshas, primarily Pitta and Kapha for such fungal infections. It’s essential to address both symptomatic relief and the underlying imbalance.
First, maintaining proper hygiene is crucial. Keep the affected areas clean and dry, avoid tight clothing that can increase moisture retention, and change wet clothing promptly. Neem (Azadirachta indica) is highly effective due to its antifungal properties. Applying Neem oil directly to the affected area twice daily will help reduce the spread of infection. You may also consider preparing a paste of Neem leaves with a little water and applying it topically.
Incorporating turmeric, known for its antiseptic properties, can provide relief. Make a paste using turmeric powder and water, and apply it on the affected spots; leave it on for 30 minutes before washing it off with lukewarm water, once daily. Herbal decoctions like a mix of Triphala also help detox the body internally, this can be effective. Drink this once in the morning on an empty stomach.
Diet is equally important. Favor a Pitta-pacifying diet - consume light, cooling foods and avoid oily, spicy, or salty foods. Enhance immunity by including Amla and consuming fresh fruits and vegetables. Ensure your digestion (Agni) is healthy by eating in moderation and avoiding late-night meals.
In case the infection is not improving or worsening, it would be prudent to consult an allopathic dermatologist for more aggressive treatments, as timely intervention is essential in preventing complications. Always monitor closely for additional symptoms, and prioritize medical help if needed.
For treating ringworm infections, especially during the damp conditions of the rainy season, it’s important to balance the doshas, primarily focusing on reducing pitta and kapha imbalances linked to skin issues. Here’s an approach based on Siddha-Ayurvedic principles to address the root causes:
1. Herbal Pastes: Make a paste from neem leaves and turmeric powder. Neem has antifungal properties, while turmeric has anti-inflammatory benefits. Gently apply this mixture to the affected areas twice daily. Leave it on for about 30 minutes before washing it off with warm water.
2. Herbal Bath: You can add bitter neem leaves boiled in water to your bath to help reduce the fungal spread. This practice should be done daily during the active infection period.
3. Diet Adjustments: Focus on a pacifying pitta and kapha diet. Avoid oily, heavy, and spicy foods that can aggravate these doshas. Instead, emphasize bitter vegetables like bitter gourd and greens, which help detoxify the skin.
4. Internal Remedies: One can consume a decoction of giloy (Tinospora cordifolia), known for its immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. Prepare by boiling the stems in water, strain, and drink it once daily.
5. Lifestyle: Keep the affected area clean and dry. Wear loose, breathable clothing to prevent moisture accumulation, which can exacerbate fungal growth.
6. See a Doctor: Since fungal infections can sometimes require more comprehensive treatment, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner if there’s no improvement in a week or if symptoms worsen to explore personalized treatments or if conventional medical intervention is needed.
It’s essential to monitor the spread and consult with a healthcare provider if the symptoms persist or get severe, as they might recommend antifungal medications. Addressing the infection promptly helps prevent further complications or spreading.
