Hello Thank you for sharing your concern. I understand that you’re experiencing itchy spots with a hard core and white spots on your arms and legs, which have been persisting for more than six months and are sometimes painful. But don’t worry we are here to help you out 😊
✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT
✅ INTERNAL MEDICATION
1 Gandhak Rasayan –1-0-1 twice daily after meals with warm water.(Acts as Raktashodhaka (blood purifier), Twak Vardhak (improves skin), and relieves itching.)
2 Arogyavardhini Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after food. (Detoxifies liver and blood, helps remove deep-seated toxins (Ama) that cause chronic skin eruptions.)
3 Manjishtadi Kashaya – 15 ml with 45 ml warm water twice daily before food (Excellent Raktaprasadaka decoction for chronic skin diseases, itching, and inflammation.)
4. Haridra Khanda – 1 teaspoon with warm milk at night. (Reduces itching, supports immunity, and improves complexion by pacifying Kapha-Pitta.)
✅ EXTERNAL THERAPIES
👉 Lepa (Topical Application):
Neem–Turmeric Paste: Mix 1 tsp neem powder + ½ tsp turmeric + few drops of coconut oil. Apply locally for 15 minutes and rinse with lukewarm water. ( Helps reduce infection, pus formation, and itching.)
Karanja Taila (Ayurvedic medicated oil) – apply gently on affected areas twice daily. (Has Kaphahara, Kandughna, and Raktashodhaka actions.)
👉Abhyanga (Oil Massage): Daily gentle body massage with Maha Marichyadi Taila or Tiktaka Ghrita before bath. ( Improves blood circulation, relieves dryness, and nourishes skin tissue.)
👉Swedana (Mild Fomentation): After applying oil, use a warm towel compress on affected areas for 5–10 minutes to enhance absorption and soften hard cores.
✅ DIET AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION
✅Include
Warm, freshly cooked light meals – moong dal khichdi, lauki, tori, karela, and leafy greens. Include turmeric, cumin, coriander, garlic, and neem in daily diet. Drink warm water infused with turmeric or cumin seeds throughout the day. Include cow’s ghee (1 tsp daily) for internal oleation and skin nourishment. Eat seasonal fruits like pomegranate, papaya, and guava to improve skin tone and digestion.
❌ Avoid
Avoid sour, salty, and fermented foods – curd, pickles, vinegar, and bakery items. Avoid fish, red meat, alcohol, and spicy fried food. Avoid cold drinks and refrigerated foods that aggravate Kapha and impair Agni. Avoid scratching or pricking the lesions as it can worsen infection.
✅LIFESTYLE AND HOME PRACTICES
Keep the skin moisturized using natural oils like coconut or sesame daily after bath.
Take lukewarm water baths with a pinch of turmeric or neem leaves decoction.
Maintain regular bowel movements – constipation aggravates skin disorders.
Ensure adequate sleep and avoid mental stress – as stress aggravates Vata and skin sensitivity.
With consistent Ayurvedic treatment, you can expect significant relief and restoration of healthy skin.
Wishing you a good health😊
Warm Regards, Dr Snehal Vidhate
