Psoriasis, being a chronic skin condition, requires a holistic approach to treatment in Ayurveda. For localized psoriasis on the feet and fingers, a combination of internal and external treatments can help manage flare-ups and reduce inflammation. Internally, you may consider herbal formulations like Kayakalp Vati, which detoxifies the body and helps reduce skin inflammation, and Arogyavardhini Vati, which supports liver function and eliminates toxins. For external application, you can use a mix of herbal oils like neem oil, coconut oil, or a medicated oil like Vishagarbha Oil to soothe the affected areas and reduce itching and scaling. Additionally, incorporating turmeric and neem in your diet can support detoxification and act as natural anti-inflammatory agents. It is also crucial to follow a diet that avoids inflammatory foods (such as spicy, oily, and processed foods) and includes cooling foods like ghee, fresh vegetables, and fruits. Consistent detox practices, such as Panchakarma treatments, can further help manage the condition. However, it is advisable to consult an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner to customize the treatment plan based on your specific constitution and the severity of your symptoms.

For long-standing psoriasis on the feet and fingers, Ayurveda focuses on internal detoxification, balancing doshas, and soothing the skin. Internally, you may benefit from herbal medicines like Kayakalp Vati and Arogyavardhini Vati, which help purify the blood and support liver function, addressing the root cause of skin inflammation. Additionally, turmeric and neem are potent anti-inflammatory herbs that can be added to your diet or taken in supplement form. For external application, you can use oils such as Vishagarbha Oil, neem oil, or a blend of sesame oil with turmeric to soothe and heal the skin. Also, practicing regular detox through Panchakarma treatments can help remove toxins from the body and reduce flare-ups. It’s important to follow a diet that avoids foods that trigger inflammation, such as spicy, oily, or processed foods, and instead focus on cooling foods like fresh vegetables, ghee, and fruits. As psoriasis is a chronic condition, consistency is key, and it’s best to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized treatment plan.

Psoriasis can be quite challenging, I hear ya. Given that it's stuck around for so long on your feet & fingers, you're gonna want something holistic. Ayurveda looks at psoriasis as an imbalance in the doshas, primarily Vata and Kapha, and sometimes Pitta too. The idea is to bring that back into harmony.
Let's start with a herb often recommended - **Khadira** (Acacia catechu). It's known for purifying the blood, which is crucial here. A decoction made from Khadira bark can be taken daily, or you can find it in tablet form in the market, usually labeled as "Khadirarishta." Take about 20ml, mixed with an equal part of water, twice a day after meals.
Then there's **Neem** - which, god, isn't Neem just a wonder for skin disorders! Try applying Neem oil on the affected parts. Look for cold-pressed organic neem oil if possible, and do a patch test first because you never know about allergies, right?
Diet's a big piece of this, too. Keeping away from foods that aggravate Kapha and Vata helps. Avoid dairy and foods with too much gluten or sugar - stick to light, warm, and freshly cooked meals. Incorporate stuff like green leafy vegetables, gourds and carrots. And oh, keep that spicy food in check, yeah?
You might also benefit from Panchakarma, particularly Virechana (a therapeutic purgation) or Vamana (a controlled vomiting therapy), but must be under professional supervision. These therapies aim to detoxify and cleanse the system.
Stay hydrated, practice meditation or gentle yoga like slow-paced Surya Namaskar, and try to keep stress levels down. I know easier said than done but give it a shot.
Check in with a nearby Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized advice, especially if you're on other meds. Safety first!
