Sounds like you’re dealing with quite a bit there, and it must be frustrating to see temporary results. Based on Ayurveda’s wisdom, skin and hair concerns are usually linked to imbalances in your doshas—primarily Pitta and Vata. But, lets untangle this further.
First, let’s tackle your skin. Your skin’s health is closely tied to your overall health, so keeping your digestive fire (agni) strong is essential. Try incorporating more cooling and hydrating foods—like cucumber, coconut water, and sweet juicy fruits. Avoid excessively spicy, oily, or fried food which can aggravate Pitta leading to inflammation and skin issues. An herbal drink with turmeric and amla (Indian gooseberry) poweder with warm water in the morning can purify the blood, reducing skin issues.
For your hair, internal and external care are both key. Consistently massage your scalp with warm oil - sesame oil is great for Vata, while coconut oil is cooling enough for Pitta. This improves circulation and strengthens hair follicles. You might want to try bhringraj oil or brahmi for hair fall—known in Ayurveda for improving hair health.
Internally, hair health stems from proper nourishment. Ensure your diet includes proteins, healthy fats (like ghee and nuts), and vitamins. Excess stress can play a role here too—so, practicing yoga or meditation could help. Remember to keep a balance with restful sleep.
Consistency here can make a big difference. These things are not instant fixes, and given you’re dealing with this for ten years, a bit of patience will go a long way. If things don’t improve or worsen, consider consulting with a practitioner who can give you personalized, immediate advice.
Oh, drink water! Plenty of it, to stay hydrated from inside out. Some simple changes over time can eventually be effective.
