HELLO DEB, Scalp psoriasis is a chronic skin condition caused by a misdirected immune response that makes skin cells grow too fast and accumulate in the scalp. This leads to -itchy, red, inflamed skin -thick , white or silvery scales -sticky discharge (in severe or infected cases) -burning or stinging sensation -hairfall due to constant itching and inflammation IS IT CONTAGIOUS? No, psoriasis is not contagious- it does not spread from one person to another In Ayurveda, this condition resembles Eka Kushtha, a type of chronic skin disease involving -vata and Kapha dosha imbalance -rakta dhatu duushti (blood impurity) -accumulation of ama(toxins) ROOT CAUSES IN AYURVEDA -improper digestion-> toxins(ama) -excessive oily/salty/ sour foods -mental stress -suppression of natural urges -irregular eating and sleeping patterns TREATMENT GOAL -reduce inflammation and itching -eliminate toxins (ama) and purify the blood -balance vata and kapha doshas -rejuvinate skin and hair follicles -prevent recurrence INTERNAL MEDICATIONS These works from within to purify blood, remove toxins, and improve skin health 1) KAISHOR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals with warm water =blood purifier, anti-inflammatory, balances pitta-kapha 2) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 2 tabs twice daily after meals with warm water =liver detox, improves digestion, clears skin eruptions 3) MAHATIKTAKA GHRITA= 1 tsp in warm water in morning empty stomach =corrects deep tissue impurities . enhances skin immunity 4) GANDHAKA RASAYANA= 1 tab twice daily after meals =natural sulphur, heals skin and reduces itching and infection 5) PANCHATIKTA KASHAYA= 40 ml twice daily before meals with water =bitter decoction to purify blood, reduce plaques TYPICALLY CONTINUE THIS FOR 6-12 WEEKS EXTERNAL TREATMENTS these help to soften scales, reduce infection and relieve itching OILS(apply 30-60 minutes before bath) -NEELIBRINGADI TAILA= strengthens hair, reduces itching -DURVADI TAILA= especially helpful if there's sticky fluid or oozing -Warm a little oil, apply on scalp, massage gently. leave for 30-60 mins, then wash off with herbal shampoo HERBAL SHAMPOOS 1) SASLIC DS= removes thick flakes 2) SCALPE + SHAMPOO= antifungal, reduces infection 3) TRICHUP HERBAL ANTI-DANDRUFF SHAMPOO= gentle daily use- option Use medicated shampoos twice weekly. herbal shampoo on other days if needed HOME REMEDIES 1) ALOE VERA GEL= fresh aloe applied directly to the scalp soothes and cool 2) NEEM PASTE= mix neem powder with water, apply for 30 mins before washing 3) TURMERIC MILK= 1/2 tsp turmeric + warm milk at bedtime improves skin from within 4) COCONUT OIL + CAMPHOR= soothes severe itching for dry scalp only don't use if sticky or discharge is present DIET SHOULD BE FOLLOWED diet is half the treatment in Ayurveda, AVOID -sour curd, pickles, cheese -fermented foods- idli,dosa -seafood especially shellfish -tomato, brinjal, spinach-heating in nature -cold drinks, ice creams -excess salt, jaggery, refined sugar -reheating food EAT MORE -warm, freshly cooked meals -moong dal, rice, bottle gourd, pumpkin -bitter vegetables= neem, karela, methi -whole wheat or millet based rotis -ghee in small amounts- improves digestion and skin YOGA AND PRANAYAM These help balance stress, which worsens psoriasis YOGA ASANA -shashankasana -bhujangasana -sarvangasana -paschimottanasana PRANAYAM -nadi sodhana -sheetali pranayam -bhramari PRACTICE 20-30 MINS DAILY, especially in morning INVESTIGATIONS TO RULE OUT UNDERLYING ISSUES 1) CBC, ESR= check for signs of inflammation 2) VITAMIN D,B12= deficiency may worsen symptoms 3) LIVER FUNCTION TEST= if long term medications is planned 4) SKIN BIPSY= if diagnosis is ulclear 5) FUNGAL CULTURE= if discharge is yellow/green(possible infection) PANCHAKARMA THERAPIES(In clinic-detox) for chronic or resistant cases, consider -VIRECHANA= purgation to cleans pitta and toxins -TAKRADHARA= buttermilk poured on scalp-soothes itching -RAKTAMOKSHANA= bloodletting (leech therapy) for stubborn plaques -SHIROLEPAM= medicated paste applied to scalp FINALLY 1) CONSISTENCY IS KEY= ayurvedic treatment takes time but it cures deeply 2) DON'T SUPPRESS NATURAL URGES= like bowel movement, urination or tears 3) STAY AWAY FROM STRESS= emotional triggers can worsen skin conditions 4) STICK TO EARLY DINNERS, REGULAR SLEEP, and minimal mobile use before bedtime 5) AVOID CHEMICAL HAIR PRODUCTS= use herbal/natural alternativs 6) TRIM NAILS- to avoid damage from scratching DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY FOR 6-12 WEEKS HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU DR.

Dr. Sanchi Damodhar
I am an Ayurvedic doctor with about 3 years of hands-on experience, mainly dealing with lifestyle disorders like PCOD, weight gain, diabetes, stress, and gut stuff—like bloating or weak digestion or just that feeling something’s off. I did my BAMS coz I was really drawn toward natural healing, not just the herbs part, but how everything connects—mind, food, sleep, mood... all of it. What I really try to focus on is not just giving medicine n sending people off. I like to understand what’s behind the symptoms... like why their metabolism’s slowed down or why they keep getting acidity despite eating less. That’s where my work with diet and mindset come in. I use Ayurvedic principles, yes, but I also mix it with small practical stuff—daily routines, sleep hygiene, stress release, food planning, whatever feels doable for that person. It’s not always about detoxes or strict regimens, though sometimes that helps too. Depends, really. I’ve seen good results when people actually get that they don’t need to do huge things. Just right guidance at the right time. I try to keep things light in consultation, make people feel heard, not rushed. I genuinely like when someone says “no one explained it to me like this before” — that feels nice. My whole approach is basically trying to make health feel natural again. Nothing fancy. Just rooted in the real Ayurvedic logic and a lot of listening. And yes, there’s trial and error sometimes, every case is different. But that’s what makes it kind of real. If you're dealing with any of those everyday-but-tiring health issues, I’ll do my best to figure it out with you—not just for now, but in a way that holds up longer term.

Hlw Deb ji Scalp psoriasis in Ayurveda is considered a manifestation of Kustha Roga (skin disease) with a dominant Kapha and Vata imbalance, often involving deep tissue toxins (Rakta Dushti). Internal Medicines: 1. Gandhaka Rasayana Dose: 250–500 mg twice daily with warm water or milk 2. Arogya Vardhini Vati Dose: 250 mg–500 mg twice daily after meals 3. Patolakaturohinyadi Kashayam Dose: 15–30 ml twice daily before meals 4. Mahamanjistadi Kwath (or Kashayam) Dose: 15–30 ml twice daily with equal water 5. Haridra Khanda Dose: 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk or water External (Topical) Applications: 1.Neelibhringadi Taila or Karanja Taila (for oiling the scalp) Apply: Warm oil gently on scalp 30–60 minutes before bathing, 3–4 times/week 2. Jatyadi Taila (if scalp has open lesions or bleeding) Action: Heals wounds, antiseptic, reduces burning 3. Psora Oil (herbal blend used in Ayurvedic practice) May be used at night and washed in the morning 4. Ayurvedic Anti-Dandruff Powders (like Triphala + Neem + Manjistha) – as a scalp pack. Mix with water or aloe gel, apply weekly. Diet & Lifestyle Tips: Avoid (very important in psoriasis): Fermented foods (curd, vinegar, cheese) Excess salt, sour, and spicy foods Fish and milk together (strictly avoid) Cold, refrigerated food, junk food Non-vegetarian foods (during flare-ups especially) Favour: Warm, light, easily digestible foods Bitter vegetables (karela, neem, methi, dandelion greens) Moong dal, steamed vegetables, gluten-free grains if sensitive Turmeric, coriander, black cumin (kalonji) Lifestyle & Panchakarma: Virechana (therapeutic purgation) – Excellent for chronic skin diseases. Should be done under supervision. Takradhara (buttermilk pouring on scalp) – Soothes itching and reduces flare-ups 🧴Natural Remedies (supportive, not curative) Aloe vera gel (pure) – Apply on scalp to reduce itching Neem water rinse – Boil neem leaves, cool the water, rinse scalp after shampoo. Thank you!

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am currently serving as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital, Nalgonda, where I specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of various ano-rectal disorders. My clinical focus lies in treating conditions such as piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), rectal polyps, and pilonidal sinus using time-tested Ayurvedic approaches like Ksharasutra, Agnikarma, and other para-surgical procedures outlined in classical texts. With a deep commitment to patient care, I emphasize a holistic treatment protocol that combines precise surgical techniques with Ayurvedic formulations, dietary guidance, and lifestyle modifications to reduce recurrence and promote natural healing. I strongly believe in integrating traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with patient-centric care, which allows for better outcomes and long-lasting relief. Working at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital has provided me with the opportunity to handle a wide range of surgical and post-operative cases. My approach is rooted in classical Shalya Tantra, enhanced by modern diagnostic insights. I stay updated with advancements in Ayurvedic surgery while adhering to evidence-based practices to ensure safety and efficacy. Beyond clinical practice, I am also committed to raising awareness about Ayurvedic proctology and promoting non-invasive treatments for conditions often mismanaged or overtreated by modern surgical approaches. I strive to make Ayurvedic surgical care accessible, effective, and aligned with the needs of today’s patients, while preserving the essence of our traditional healing system. Through continuous learning and compassionate practice, I aim to offer every patient a respectful, informed, and outcome-driven experience rooted in Ayurveda.
