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. MAITRI ACHARYA

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: 250â500 mg twice daily with warm water or milk
2. Arogya Vardhini Vati
Dose: 250 mgâ500 mg twice daily after meals
3. Patolakaturohinyadi Kashayam
Dose: 15â30 ml twice daily before meals
4. Mahamanjistadi Kwath (or Kashayam)
Dose: 15â30 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 30â60 minutes before bathing, 3â4 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) â 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) â Excellent for chronic skin diseases. Should be done under supervision.
Takradhara (buttermilk pouring on scalp) â Soothes itching and reduces flare-ups
đ§´Natural Remedies (supportive, not curative)
Aloe vera gel (pure) â Apply on scalp to reduce itching
Neem water rinse â Boil neem leaves, cool the water, rinse scalp after shampoo.
Thank you!
