In Ayurveda, warts are considered to be caused by an imbalance in the body's doshas, particularly an excess of Kapha (which leads to the formation of growths like warts). Ayurveda offers both internal and external treatments for warts.
Internal Treatments: Herbs like Guggulu (Commiphora wightii), Turmeric (Curcuma longa), and Neem (Azadirachta indica) are commonly used for their detoxifying and anti-inflammatory properties. These herbs can help balance the immune system and fight off the underlying viral infection (like HPV) that causes warts.
External Treatments: For topical application, herbal pastes made from Garlic (Allium sativum), Turmeric, or Neem are often recommended for warts. Garlic, in particular, has antiviral properties and may help to break down the wart tissue. Another common remedy is castor oil, which can be applied directly to the wart. Applying a mixture of Basil and Turmeric paste is also a traditional approach.
It's important to remember that, while Ayurvedic remedies can be effective for some people, results can vary. If you're not seeing improvement, or if the warts are spreading, it may be worth consulting with a healthcare provider to discuss other treatment options. Avoid trying harsh or irritating treatments without proper guidance, as these can lead to further complications.
In conclusion, both oral and topical treatments can be considered, depending on your preference, but it's advisable to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized approach.

Ah, warts can be quite a bother, even if they aren’t painful or irritating. In Ayurveda, those pesky warts are usually linked to imbalances in the Kapha and Vata doshas. So, the approach is about harmonizing these energies and treating the root cause rather than just zapping the warts away.
Topically, you can try applying fresh aloe vera gel directly to the warts. Aloe vera is known in Ayurveda for its soothing and healing properties, kinda like a natural wart repellent. Just slice open a fresh aloe leaf, scoop the gel and dab it on the warts. Do this every day and be patient as Ayurveda treatment takes time.
You might also consider using garlic. Crush a clove and apply it to the wart, placing a bandage over it can strengthen the effect. Garlic's high sulfur content help combats the virus causing warts but remember to test on a small patch of skin first to check for irritation.
Dietary wise, balance is key. Consume warm, light, and easy-to-digest foods that pacify Kapha like ginger tea, warm broths, or stews. Cut down on oily, cold, and heavy foods. Adding spices like turmeric and black pepper, which are great for boosting immunity, can also be helpful.
If you're considering internal medicine, a combination of herbal supplements like Triphala or a decoction of neem, renowned for its purifying properties, could work. But before consuming any herbs be sure to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner to make sure what's best tailored for you.
Lifestyle shifts, simple as they sound bring long-lasting changes. Keeping your body warm, engaging in regular physical activity, and managing stress through yoga or meditation can help modulate the doshas.
Remember, warts may take weeks or even months to shrink or disappear, persistence and patience are your best allies here. If however, they change in appearance or your symptoms worsen, a visit to a healthcare provider would be wise.
