fragmentation dark patch on the face - #24302
Shinivas
I am male 49 years. Have got dark patch on the left side of the face since last 5 to 6 years. Looks due to pigmentation. Consulted skin specialist and applied medicine - cream "Melaltite" - and the dark patch became light. Again it developed dark. Suggested to apply sunscreen lotion. I am working in office where no sufficient sunlight.
Age: 49
Chronic illnesses: Nil

HELLO SHINIVAS,
Based on your symptoms- persistent dark patch(hyperpigmentation) on the left side of the face for over 5-6 years, which responds to topical treatment but recurs- and assuming no underlying chronic conditions,
IN AYURVEDA IT IS CORRELATED WITH
-VYANGA= A condition characterised by bluish-brown or blackish patches on the face, usually without inflammation or itching . it falls under KSHUDRA ROGA(minor skin disease) and is primarily a RAKTA-PITTA disorder with secondary involvement of VATA dosha
1)CAUSES- excessive stress, anger, or mental strain
-excess intake of spicy, sour, salty, or oily foods
-sun exposure, even indirect-uv through windows
-use of chemical cosmetics
-late night working habits or disturbed sleep
-pitta aggravating lifestyle
DOSHA INVOLVEMENT
-PITTA= causes pigmentation, discolouration
-VATA= helps spread the pigmentation
-RAKTA DHATU= blood is carrier of doshas to the skin
-TWACHA(skin) and BHRAJAKA PITTA(skin metabolism) are involved
TREATMENT PROTOCOL
1)DETOX AND CLEANSING THERAPIES
-FOR 1ST THREE DAYS TAKE
-HINGWASTAKA CHURNA- 1/2 TSP WITH GHEE TWICE DAILY BEFORE MEALS
