Hello Mr. Harsh,
The cause of psoriasis in Ayurveda is improper digestion, leading to the formation of (toxins). These toxins accumulate in the body and disturb the balance of the doshas, causing them to manifest as skin disorders. Unhealthy dietary habits, stress, lack of exercise, and environmental factors can further aggravate the condition. As per the symptoms you have presented here, majorly there is imbalance of Kapha and Vata doshas. I suggest you to take up a panchakarma detox program under the guidance of a panchakarma specialist, from Ayurveda hospital near you. Meanwhile you can start with below mentioned remedies. 1.. Tab Arogyavardhini vati 1 tab thrice a day with lukewarm water after food. 2.Mahamanjishthadi Kwatha 4 tsp diluted with equal quantity of water twice a day after meal. 3. Apply Eladi taila on scalp twice a week, this will reduce the flakiness and irritation on the scalp skin. 4.Apply a paste of Sandalwood powder mixed with rosewater and milk. Apply as a facepack , let it stay for 15 mins and then rinse it off with only water, avoid using soap. 5.Dietary recommendations: Avoid oily , spicy and dry foods, specially dairy products. Include bitter foods like bitter gourd, fenugreek sprouts, fenugreek soaked water , consumed on an empty stomach will give excellent results in a week. 6.Stay Hydrated. 7. Avoid using harsh shampoos , use milk cleansing shampoos like Trichup . 8. Keep your stress levels in check, through regular sleep timings, mindfulness, meditation , breathing practices, as high stress levels can flare up the symptoms . Not to worry. Early intervention and lifestyle modifications will definitely help.
