Persistent itching, also known as pruritus, can indeed be distressing if it’s been going on for months. Based on an Ayurvedic perspective, it’s crucial to consider potential imbalances in her doshas, particularly Pitta and Vata, which might be contributing to her symptoms. First, take a closer look at her diet and daily routine to identify any heat-creating (Pitta increasing) elements, since excess heat in the body could exacerbate itching.
She should steer clear of spicy, sour, and excessively salty foods, as these can aggravate Pitta. Instead, focus on cooling and calming foods. Fresh fruits like melons, cucumbers, and sweet grapes may help, alongside vegetables like leafy greens, zucchini and carrots, all of which can soothe the body. Staying hydrated is essential, aim for 8-10 glasses of water daily, perhaps trying coconut water if it’s available, which is naturally cooling.
Harsh soaps and hot water can also aggravate the skin. She should use mild, natural soaps and opt for lukewarm water when bathing. Adding a cup of oatmeal or a few drops of neem oil to her bath could provide additional relief, as both have soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.
Encourage her to wear loose-fitting, cotton clothing to allow her skin time to breath. Additionally applying aloe vera gel on the affected areas can provide some cooling and soothing effects. If she can manage it, incorporating a few minutes of meditation into her daily routine might help to balance her overall stress levels, since stress can sometimes exacerbate itching.
Should these strategies not improve her symptoms, it might then be appropriate to seek further medical evaluation to rule out underlying conditions like allergies or autoimmune issues. Sometimes persistent symptoms need a comprehensive approach, integrating both modern and traditional medicine.
