Ayurvedic treatment can be beneficial for prurigo nodularis by addressing the underlying imbalance of doshas, particularly pitta and vata, which contribute to inflammation and itching. Herbal applications like turmeric, neem, and yashtimadhu can help reduce itching and inflammation. Oils like coconut or sesame, infused with manjistha and chandana, soothe the skin and promote healing. Internal remedies such as gandhaka rasayana or khadirarishta may help detoxify the system and reduce recurrence. Regular use of gentle exfoliants like licorice paste can lighten post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Recovery time varies based on severity and chronicity, typically taking 3 to 6 months for significant improvement with consistent treatment.

Ayurveda can be quite helpful for conditions like prurigo nodules, but patience is key—it’s not a quick fix. It's about balancing the doshas, especially focusing on pitta and vata imbalances, because they play a big role in skin issues. You know, the treatments don’t always look miraculous overnight. It can take some time, depending on how your body's responding.
First, let's start with diet: integrating cooling and soothing foods helps a lot—coconut water, cucumbers, and aloe vera juice can calm the fiery nature of pitta. You might also want to reduce hot, spicy, or oily foods, they can aggravate pitta further. A pinch of turmeric or neem mixed with water could be taken daily to help cleanse the blood.
Lifestyle-wise, stress seems to make things worse. Daily practices like meditation, pranayama or even a gentle yoga routine might help calm your mind and support healing.
For external care, applying a paste made from turmeric and sandalwood could provide some relief and lighten the black spots post-nodules. It's like a natural skin soother. Also, you could try a light massage with coconut or sesame oil—it can nourish the skin and help with the itchiness. But if you have flare-ups, it might be best to avoid any oil.
Time? Well, it differs from person to person. In mild cases, you might see changes in a few weeks, but severe ones may take several months. It's a process, both internal and external support is essential.
Now, if things don't improve or worsen, seeking prompt medical advice is crucial. Prurigo nodules can sometimes become persistent, calling for integrative approaches alongside regular checks with an Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare provider. Always prioritize safety. Stay hopeful but practical, adjustments might just bring noticeable changes soon.
