It seems like you're experiencing several symptoms that may be linked to imbalances in Vata and Kapha doshas in Ayurveda. Here's how Ayurveda might help address these concerns: Vaginal Itching: Herbs: Turmeric and Aloe Vera can soothe itching. Neem can help with infections. Diet: Avoid spicy, oily foods, and consume cooling foods like cucumber and coconut. Hygiene: Use gentle soaps and breathable fabrics. Sensitivity to Cold (Vata Imbalance): Warmth: Dress warmly, and use warm oils like sesame for self-massage (Abhyanga). Diet: Consume warm, nourishing foods like soups and herbal teas, avoiding cold and raw foods. Face Pain (Vata/Pitta Imbalance): Herbs: Ashwagandha for stress and inflammation, and Brahmi for calming the nervous system. Warm Compress: Apply to reduce pain and stiffness. Weight Issues (Kapha Imbalance): Herbs: Guggulu for metabolism, Triphala for detox, and cinnamon or ginger to boost digestion. Diet: Eat light, digestible foods and avoid heavy or sugary foods. Exercise: Engage in regular activities like yoga or walking. General Tips: Sleep: Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep. Hydration: Drink warm water throughout the day. Stress: Use techniques like Pranayama (breathing exercises) for relaxation. Consulting an Ayurvedic doctor for personalized treatment is important, and if symptoms persist, seek further treatment.

It sounds like you're dealing with a few things all at once, kind of a mixed bag, huh? Let’s break it down a bit. For the vaginal itching, often it’s related to an imbalance in the Pitta and Vata doshas. The skin becomes dry and irritated. Sometimes, diets high in sour, spicy, or fermented foods can aggravate Pitta. So, maybe try avoiding those for a little while and see how you feel. Drinking coriander seed water could help; just soak a tablespoon overnight and drink in the morning. As for sensitivity to cold weather and AC, it feels like Vata is having a party when you didn’t quite invite it. Keep yourself warm, wearing layers, and use sesame oil for a gentle massage before taking a warm shower. It’ll help keep you warm and ground that wandering Vata energy. The pain on the left side of your face can sometimes be related to sinus issues or tension. You might wanna try steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil, a simple thing but so effective! Also, gentle pressure on your face using warm hands could bring some relief. And about that heavy feeling, this could be related to Kapha dosha. Maybe a good idea to start light exercises, even a brisk walk in the morning? Also, consider reducing dairy and sugar. Drink warm water with a little honey—it’s like giving your metabolism a friendly nudge. Everything’s interconnected so, aligning your diet and lifestyle with your doshas might steer you back to balance. Always remember to consult with a healthcare professional if symptoms persist or get worse, especially with the face pain, just to be on the safe side, yeah?
