Hello swastika, Thank you for sharing your concerns. Based on what you’ve described dark spots on one side of the leg, strawberry skin, and white stretch marks on hips, bum, and legs this seems to be a combination of post-inflammatory pigmentation, clogged or open hair follicles (strawberry legs), and skin collagen thinning or stretching. In Ayurveda, this is mostly Rakta Dhatu dushti, Vata-Kapha imbalance, and local twak-vikaras (skin texture changes). The good news is, with regular exfoliation, nourishment, and internal correction, you can reduce pigmentation and improve skin tone and texture.

Explanation (in simple words)

Your skin is reacting to dryness, friction, and possibly blocked pores or old scars. The darker side of the leg may be from more sun exposure or friction (like cross-legged sitting). Stretch marks happen when the skin stretches quickly (due to weight gain or loss, or hormonal shifts), and strawberry skin comes from open or blocked pores that look like dark dots. With the right routine, skin can regain glow and marks can lighten.

Treatment Plan

1. Ama Pachana (First 5 Days) To improve blood circulation and reduce toxins internally: • Trikatu Churna – 1 pinch with honey once daily before breakfast • Hingwashtaka Churna – ½ tsp with warm water after both meals

2. Internal Medications (Start from Day 6) • Kaishora Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food (for blood purification and pigmentation) • Sarivadyasava – 20 ml with equal water after meals (for skin cooling and detox) • Abhyarishta – 15 ml twice daily after meals (for internal cleansing and skin support)

3. External Application (Daily for 2–3 months) • Scrub: Mix 1 tsp masoor dal powder + ½ tsp raw milk or rose water. Gently scrub 3–4 times a week before bath • Massage Oil (Daily): Use Nalparamadi Tailam or Eladi Tailam, apply on legs and massage for 10 minutes before bath • Post-bath: Apply Aloe vera gel + a few drops of kumkumadi tailam or pure sweet almond oil at night • For Stretch Marks: • Apply Shatadhauta Ghrita or Kumkumadi tailam with light circular massage over hips/legs • You can also mix a little castor oil + vitamin E oil once daily on stretch marks at night

4. Diet & Routine Tips • Drink warm water throughout the day • Include soaked munakka (black raisins) and figs (anjeer) daily • Avoid cold, deep-fried, and stale food • Use cotton loose clothes to reduce friction • Do 15 minutes dry brushing before bath thrice a week

Investigations (If not done recently) • Vitamin D and B12 levels • Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4) – since hormonal imbalance can worsen pigmentation and stretch marks • CBC

Skin takes time to regenerate, but with consistent care, your texture, tone, and marks will gradually improve. If you’d like a weekly or monthly follow-up plan, I can guide you step by step.

Take care, stay confident. You’re already healing. Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Addressing dark spots on the legs and stretch marks involves understanding the underlying imbalances according to Siddha-Ayurvedic principles. Dark spots, often associated with “strawberry skin,” could be related to an imbalance in the Kapha and Vata doshas. Exfoliating the skin can be quite helpful. Use a homemade scrub made from chickpea flour (besan), turmeric, and milk. Mix these into a paste and massage gently on the affected areas once or twice weekly. This promotes both gentle exfoliation and improves blood circulation, crucial for dealing with Kapha and Vata imbalances. Ensure you moisturize afterwards; sesame oil can be a great option due to its Vata-pacifying properties.

As for stretch marks, they can be stubborn. Coconut oil with a pinch of turmeric applied daily may help lighten them over time due to its natural healing properties. Massaging this mixture on the stretch marks can help improve skin elasticity. Another remedy from Siddha tradition involves the regular application of Manjishtadi Lepa, a herbal paste that promotes skin health and regeneration.

Alongside topical treatments, focus on nurturing your body from within. Consume warm, well-cooked meals rich in healthy fats such as ghee and sesame oil, supporting tissue nourishment and repair. Increase intake of vitamin C through fresh fruits to enhance collagen production, aiding skin elasticity.

Remain consistent with these methods; results may take time. Always perform a patch test with any new remedies. If marks or dark spots worsen or become painful, or you’re concerned about your skin health, seeking a consultation with a healthcare provider is recommended to rule out any underlying issues.

Dark spots and uneven skin tone, often referred to as “strawberry skin,” along with stretch marks can be addressed through Ayurvedic practices, though it requires patience and consistency. Let’s start with the dark spots and uneven skin on your legs. These are often due to clogged hair follicles or keratosis pilaris, which can be balanced by improving circulation and exfoliating the skin naturally.

First, consider applying a paste made from besan (gram flour) mixed with turmeric and milk. Apply this mixture gently to the affected areas, let it dry, then wash off with lukewarm water. Do this 2-3 times a week to help brighten the skin tone and remove dead skin cells. Following the paste application, massage your legs with a light oil like coconut or almond oil. This promotes circulation and provides nourishment to the skin.

For the stretch marks, Ayurveda suggests the use of oils with rejuvenating properties such as kumkumadi taila or mandarin oil. Gently massage the affected areas daily to help improve skin elasticity. Additionally, an herbal mix of sandalwood and turmeric can be applied to the stretch marks to lighten their appearance over time.

Ensuring a balanced diet rich in vitamin A, C, and E contribute to skin health. Add foods like carrots, spinach, nuts, and citrus fruits into your daily meals. Staying hydrated is crucial, aim for at least eight glasses of water daily.

Remember, daily routine matters too. Dry brushing before a shower can enhance exfoliation and encourage healthy skin cell turnover. Maintaining consistent skin care, by diligently following these practices, will likely lead to improvement but do give it some time. If there’s no noticeable change over a few months, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider or dermatologist for further assessment.

I’m Vaidya Neha Saini, an Ayurvedic Physician with a strong foundation in classical Ayurveda and a passion for restoring health through natural and individualized care. I hold a BAMS degree from Shree Krishna Government Ayurvedic College, Kurukshetra, and completed my MD in Ayurveda from the esteemed Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, Pune. With over five years of clinical experience, I have dedicated my practice to helping patients manage chronic health conditions, lifestyle disorders, and long-standing imbalances through a holistic lens. My treatment approach integrates the timeless principles of Ayurveda with modern clinical sensibilities. I focus on addressing the root cause of illness rather than just alleviating symptoms. Over the years, I have supported patients suffering from joint and musculoskeletal pain, chronic skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, hormonal imbalances including PCOS and thyroid dysfunction, and neurological concerns like paralysis and post-stroke rehabilitation. Each case is treated with individualized Ayurvedic therapies that may include herbal medicine, Panchakarma detoxification, lifestyle restructuring, and personalized diet plans tailored to the patient's prakriti (body constitution) and vikriti (current imbalance). I provide both in-person and online consultations to make Ayurvedic care accessible and convenient for everyone. My goal in every interaction is to listen with empathy, guide with clarity, and offer treatments rooted in authenticity and clinical evidence. I firmly believe that true healing is a collaborative journey—where the patient and practitioner work in harmony to bring the body, mind, and spirit back into equilibrium. For me, Ayurveda is not just a profession—it is a way of life, a science of understanding human nature, and a philosophy of living in sync with the rhythms of nature. I am committed to walking this path with you, offering my knowledge, experience, and care at every step of your healing journey.

Just to understand it better and plan the right treatment for you, may I ask:

Since when have you noticed the dark spot on your leg? Has it been there for a few weeks, months, or longer?

Are you comfortable showing the area via photo? Seeing the spot helps me assess the skin condition properly — whether it’s just pigmentation, dryness, or something deeper — and choose the best treatment accordingly.

No pressure at all — only if you’re comfortable. Your privacy and comfort are always respected.

I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Deepali Goswami
I am Dr. Deepali Goswami, BAMS graduate n working mainly around women's health. Right now m running my own clinic where i treat all kind of gyne problems—from irregular periods to PCOD, white discharge, fertility-related issues, menopausal symptoms n lot more that affects everyday life of females. I usually try to keep the language simple while dealing with patients cause honestly half of them come already confused or like really scared of what's happening inside their body... and if I use too much technical terms it just make it worse. I’ve been practicing in this space for couple of years now—don’t remember the exact month, maybe two or three year back? but anyway, what matters is I’ve seen how many of these problems get ignored till they turn serious. That’s something I feel strongly about. My goal is to help women understand their symptoms early and explain how Ayurveda can help gently but properly, whether it’s hormonal stuff or pain or cycle issues. I use classic Ayurvedic concepts like dosha analysis, ritucharya, n yoni vyapad chikitsa wherever it fits, but sometimes modern lifestyle really needs to be factored in too. Like if someone working night shift, no point telling them to wake up at 5am and do abhyanga daily—it won’t work. I’m practical about it. Anyway, I try my best to create a space where women feel heard. Lot of them said nobody actually explained them what’s going on before. And that’s like the saddest part. I feel my biggest strength is really just listening n tailoring the treatment to her routine, diet n stress pattern. Some cases are harder of course... things don’t always go fast, esp when it’s been neglected for yrs. But then Ayurveda’s not magic. It takes a little time—but results feel real n lasting when done right.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Karthika
I am currently a PG 2nd yr student in the dept of Shalakya Tantra at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research, batch 2024. I joined right after UG—no break—straight into PG (regular batch). I did my undergrad from Rajiv Gandhi Ayurveda Medical College (2017 batch, CCRAS syllabus under Pondicherry Univ). Somehow managed to secure 2nd rank university-wide back then, which I didn’t totally expect. Right now, my core interest lies in the Ayurvedic and integrative management of eye disorders. I’ve got decent exposure to both classical texts and clinical practice. From anatomy to pathology, I try to stay grounded in both the traditional Ayurvedic view and also the modern opthalmic understanding, especially with conditions related to the cornea, retina, and anterior segment. During PG deputation in 2nd year, I handled like 200+ OPD patients daily within 1–2 hrs (felt crazy at first but got used to the pace). I’m also trained hands-on in cataract and cornea surgeries under supervision. Not calling myself a surgeon yet, but I did get a good amout of surgical exposure in the PG postings. In terms of academics, I got 82% in the first-year PG exams—distinction score—secured department 1st and university topper at Parul Institute. Sometimes I do wonder if all this speed actually lets me go deep into each case but I’m learning to balance efficiency with proper patient care. Honestly I think that’s the biggest challenge in clinical ayurveda today—staying rooted in shastra while also being practically useful in today's overloaded OPDs. Anyway, still got a lot to learn, but I try to show up with clarity, humility and the will to keep improving every day.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.
