I have tried acnederm cream and it helped to some extent but it keeps on coming at different places. If I eat anti allergic then it also subsides to some extent but then again comes back. I take thyroid medicine.

Can you describe my problem? Is it related to horomonal imblance or blood impurification or simply food insensitivity
Your acne on scalp face and back are due to imbalance in pitta kapha causing Raksha dusti( blood impurity) and Swedovaha srotodusthi ( blocked sweat channels)

Sounds like you’re dealing with quite a challenging situation. Acne can sometimes be linked to dosha imbalances in Ayurveda—particularly Pitta and Kapha doshas. Since you mentioned redness, inflammation, and pain, it suggests Pitta aggravation, while any systemic itchiness might point towards Kapha involvement.
Begin by addressing your daily routine, and start with your diet. Avoid spicy, oily, and acidic food and beverages, which can exacerbate Pitta. Opt for a Pitta-pacifying diet focusing on cooling foods like cucumber, lettuce, sweet fruits like pears, and astringent vegetables like green beans. It's crucial to drink plenty of water, and include herbal teas with coriander or fennel.
Incorporate a consistent regimen of gentle cleansing and exfoliating of your skin. Try washing affected areas with neem leaf water daily. Neem has potent anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties beneficial for Pitta-induced conditions.
Next, you can apply a paste of sandalwood and turmeric. Mix a small amount of turmeric powder with a tablespoon of sandalwood powder and a little water to make a paste. Let it sit on affected areas for around 20 minutes before washing off. Turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory qualities, combined with cooling sandalwood helps balance Pitta.
Additionally, ensure you manage stress through mindfulness practices, like pranayama or yoga, to avoid further aggravating Pitta, which can flare up with stress. Regular physical activity helps in balancing Kapha by maintaining good circulation.
For your thyroid condition, please continue taking your prescribed medication as needed, and it’s best to consult with your healthcare provider if further adjustments need consideration. Any herbal supplements or treatments should be evaluated for any possible interaction with your thyroid meds.
If your symptoms persist or worsen, a consultation with an Ayurvedic practitioner could give you a tailored approach. They’d assess your prakriti more comprehensively and could offer more personalized treatments or formulations as needed.
