Hello, It requires a detailed consultation, in person. So go to a nearby ayurveda doctor. Till then you can use the following:
1. Thikthakam kashayam 20ml+80ml----0-----20ml+80ml 45 minutes before breakfast and dinner. 2. Kaisora guggulu 2----0----2 with medicine no.2 3. Eladi thailam for application once a day.
Take care. Kind regards.
Dealing with atopic dermatitis, especially with sunlight sensitivity, can be quite a challenge. In Ayurveda, this condition might be linked to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which governs fire and is responsible for metabolism and transformation in the body. Here’s a practical approach to help manage this condition.
First, focus on your diet, which can significantly influence your doshic balance. Prefer a Pitta-pacifying diet by consuming cooling, hydrating foods. Include fresh fruits like watermelon and cucumber, and vegetables such as zucchini, lettuce, and asparagus. Minimize spicy, sour, and salty foods as they can aggravate Pitta. Incorporate fennel seeds in your meals as they help to cool body internally.
Second, topical treatments can be beneficial. For instance, applying fresh aloe vera gel directly to your skin can sooth itchiness and reduce redness. Besides, use a mixture of coconut oil and a pinch of turmeric as it’s known for its anti-inflammatory properties, and helps in healing the skin naturally. Try to do this at least once daily.
It’s important to adjust your lifestyle too. Wear loose, cotton clothing that allows your skin to breathe and minimizes irritation. Manage stress through regular practice of meditation or yoga, as stress increases Pitta and leads to worsening of symptoms. Trikonasana (Triangle Pose) and Shavasana (Corpse Pose) can be particularly beneficial.
While being exposed to sunlight, use a natural sunscreen, such as one with zinc oxide, it minimizes irritation. Covering exposed skin with a light scarf or hat further prevents direct interaction with sunlight.
Stay hydrated by sipping on water or herbal teas like chamomile and peppermint throughout the day to keep your skin moist and less prone to flaking.
If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s prudent seek professional advice from a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner. They can provide you with a more tailored treatment plan, possibly including Ayurvedic detoxification therapies. Always prioritize your safety and do not delay if medical intervention is necesssary.
