Dr. Sumi. S
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic physician with specialized expertise in Shalakya Tantra, focusing on the diagnosis and management of disorders affecting the Netra (eyes), Karna (ears), Nasa (nose), Mukha (oral cavity), Danta (teeth), and Shira (head and ENT region). My training and clinical experience have equipped me to treat a wide range of conditions such as Netra Abhishyanda (conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early and advanced cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Karna Nada (tinnitus), Pratishyaya (chronic rhinitis and sinusitis), Mukhapaka (oral ulcers), Dantaharsha (dental sensitivity), and Shirashoola (headache and migraine). I routinely incorporate classical Ayurvedic therapeutic techniques like Kriya Kalpas, Nasya, Tarpana, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, Gandusha, Pratisarana, and Dhoomapana, along with internal Rasayana and Shamana therapies, ensuring treatments are both effective and tailored to each patient’s prakriti and condition. Beyond my specialization, I bring over two years of clinical experience managing multi-systemic disorders. My approach blends classical Ayurvedic principles with a sound understanding of modern diagnostics and pathology, allowing me to handle cases related to metabolic disorders (such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and PCOS), musculoskeletal issues (like arthritis and back pain), gastrointestinal disorders, skin conditions, and women’s health concerns, including infertility and hormonal imbalance. I believe in evidence-informed practice, patient education, and holistic healing. My focus is always on delivering compassionate care that empowers patients to actively participate in their health journey. Through continuous learning and clinical research, I remain committed to upholding the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda in a way that aligns with today’s healthcare needs.

Hello Riya,

Thank you for explaining your condition in detail. The appearance of recurrent, painful boils on different areas of your upper body, starting as small red raised spots and progressing to swollen, warm, tender lesions, indicates a Pitta–Kapha aggravation with Rakta Dushti (impurity of blood) and underlying Ama (toxic residues).

Your symptoms suggest that excess heat and toxins are circulating in the blood and skin channels (Raktavaha & Swedavaha Srotas), leading to inflammation. Addressing this will require blood purification, cooling Pitta, clearing Ama, and supporting skin immunity to prevent recurrence.

Recommended Investigations(if not done previously)

1. CBC – to check for infection or anemia. 2. Fasting Blood Sugar / HbA1c – to rule out diabetes (a common cause of recurrent boils). 3. Liver Function Test (LFT) – to assess detoxification capacity. 4. Vitamin D levels – for immune support.

Internal Medicine

Stage 1 – Ama Pachana & Rakta Shodhana (First 7 days)

1. Triphala Churna – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime (mild detox and bowel regulation). 2. Mahamanjishthadi Kwath – 20 ml with 20 ml warm water twice daily after meals (blood purification). 3. Gandhak Rasayan – 1 tablet twice daily after meals with warm water (antimicrobial & skin support).

Stage 2 – Maintenance & Prevention (After 7 days)

1. Neem Churna – ½ tsp twice daily with warm water (immune support & anti-pitta action). 2. Aloe Vera Juice – 20 ml on empty stomach in the morning (cooling & cleansing). 3. Manjistha Churna – ½ tsp twice daily after meals with warm water (blood cleanser).

Diet & Lifestyle Tips

Avoid:

1.Spicy, oily, fried foods, excessive sweets. 2.Sour fermented foods (pickles, vinegar). 3.Prolonged sun exposure without protection.

Include:

1.Bitter vegetables (bottle gourd, ridge gourd, bitter gourd). 2.Fresh coriander water or infused cucumber water daily. 3.Green leafy vegetables, carrots, beetroot for blood health.

Lifestyle:

1.Maintain good skin hygiene; wear loose cotton clothes. 2Gentle application of neem + turmeric paste over fresh boils for 20–30 min. 3.Adequate hydration with warm or room temperature water. 4.Evening walk (20–30 min) to support circulation and detox.

May your skin regain its natural balance and strength, and the cycle of boils come to a complete stop. Please feel free to reach out for follow-up and medicine adjustments based on progress.

With kind regards, Dr. Sumi

HELLO RIYA,

You’re getting repeated painful boils on your upper body

From a modern angle -boils(furuncles) are infections of hair follicles caused mostly by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. -They start as red, tender bumps, then swell, become painful and may fill with pus. -Recurrent boils can be linked to -poor immunity -skin bacteria overgrowth -diabetes -nutritional deficiencies -chronic skin inflammation

FROM AN AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE -Boils are a result of Pitta dosha aggravation (heat, inflammation) with rakta dhatu dushti (impurity in blood) and often kapha involvement (swelling, pus formation) -Poor digestion and ama (toxin) accumulation feed this process -The condition may be related to Kushtha, pidaka, or dushta vrana in Ayurveda’s classification.

TREATMENT GOALS We treat both symptoms and the root cause -reduce pain, swelling, and heat (controls pitta and inflammation) -purify blood -remove toxins from the body -improve immunity -prevent recurrence -promote healthy skin regeneration

INTERNAL TREATMENT

1) MAHAMANJISTHADI KASHAYA= 20 ml with equal water twice daily after meals for 6-8 weeks =purifies blood, cools pitta, reduces skin inflammation

2) PANCHATIKTA GHRITA GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 6 weeks =detoxifies skin, dries pus, prevents spread

3) NEEM CAPSULES POWDER= 500 mg cap twice daily after meals for 2 months =natural antibiotic and blood purifier

4) TRIPHALA POWDER= 1 tsp with warm water at night =keeps bowel clean , supports detox

5) GUDUCHI CAPSULES= 500 mg cap twice daily after rmeals for 2 months =immune booster and anti-inflamatory

EXTERNAL TREATMENT

1) NEEM PASTE= crush fresh leaves, apply on boils to reduce infection

2) TURMERIC + COCONUT OIL PASTE= turmeric is antiseptic , coconut oil cools and sootes

3) TRIPHALA DECOCTION WASH= boil 2 tsp Triphala powder in 2 cups water, cool, and wash affected area daily

4) ALOE VERA GEL= apply after boils heal to reduce scars and soothe skin

LIFESTYLE CHANGES

DO -bathe daily with lukewarm water; use herbal soaps with neem/tulsi -wear loose, breathable cotton clothes -wash sweat off quickly after workouts -keep nails trimmed; avoid scratching

AVOID -oily, fried, spicy, fermented foods -excess sugar and packaged junk foods -staying in excessive heat or direct sun -overuse of chemical skin products

DIET -green leafy vegetables- spinach, fenugreek, drumstick leaves -bittervegetables- bitter gourd, neem flowers -fruits like pomegranate, apple, pear -cooling foods= cucumber, bottle gourd, ridge gourd -coriander leaf water, barley water

AVOID -excess chilli, pickles, vinegar -red meat, shellfish -deep fried snacks -ice cold drinks slow digestion and immunity

YOGA ASANA -bhujangasana -paschimottanasana -matsyasana -twisting poses for liver detox

PRANAYAM -sheetali and sheetkari -anulom-vilom

HOME REMEDIES -turmeric milk= 1/2 tsp turmeric in warm milk daily

-Neem water= boil 10-12 leaves in 2 cups water, drink when lukewarm

-Coriander sed water= soak 1 tsp sees overnight, drink in morning

-Fresh Aloe Vera juice= 20 ml on empty stomach

FINALLLY -Boils are sign your body is trying o expel toxins through skin -Modern medicine can drain and treat infection quickly, but Ayurveda works on root cause correction- purifying blood, balancing doshas, improving digestion, and boosting immunity so boils dont keep coming back -with the right medications, diet, and cleansing , recurrence can be reduced or completely prevented over time

Healing takes patience and consistency- most people see clear improvement in 4-8 weeks, but prevention is a long tern lifestyle habit

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

​In Ayurveda, the appearance of boils (known as ‘vidradhi’ or ‘pidika’) is generally attributed to an imbalance of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. The specific symptoms you describe, such as redness, warmth, and pain, are often associated with an aggravation of the Pitta dosha, particularly its sub-type, Bhrajaka Pitta, which governs the skin. ​According to Ayurvedic principles, the accumulation of toxins (‘ama’) in the body, coupled with an imbalance of the doshas, can manifest as skin conditions like boils. The recurring nature and appearance on different parts of the upper body suggest a systemic issue rather than a localized one.

​Common Ayurvedic perspectives on the causes of boils include:

​Pitta aggravation: This can be caused by consuming an excess of hot, spicy, oily, or fermented foods, as well as by exposure to excessive heat or anger.

​Improper diet and lifestyle: Irregular eating habits, consumption of incompatible food combinations (‘viruddha ahara’), and lack of proper hygiene can contribute to the problem.

​Accumulation of toxins: A sluggish digestive system and impaired detoxification processes can lead to the buildup of ‘ama’, which can then be released through the skin.

​Blood vitiation: Ayurvedic texts often refer to ‘rakta dushti’ or vitiation of the blood, which is believed to be a significant factor in various skin diseases.

​Ayurvedic approaches to managing boils typically involve a combination of the following:

​Pitta-pacifying diet: This includes avoiding hot, spicy, oily, and fried foods. Favoring cooling, bitter, and astringent foods such as green leafy vegetables, cucumber, and pomegranate.

​Herbal remedies: Certain herbs are traditionally used to cleanse the blood, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Some examples include Neem, Manjistha, and Guduchi.

​Detoxification (‘Panchakarma’): In some cases, a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner may recommend a detoxification therapy like ‘Virechana’ (purgation) to cleanse the body of excess Pitta and toxins.

​Topical applications: Herbs like Neem or Turmeric can be made into a paste and applied externally to the boils to help with their maturation and healing.

Recurring boils can indicate an imbalance in your body’s doshas, particularly an aggravation of Pitta (heat-related) and Kapha (blockage-related) doshas. In Ayurveda, boils are often seen as a manifestation of accumulated toxins (Ama) in the body, which disrupts the balance of your internal energies. Here are some practical tips to help you manage this condition:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Favor a diet cooling to Pitta and reducing Kapha. Consume more foods like cucumber, bitter gourd, green vegetables, and fruits like pomegranate, grapes, or pears, which are known for their cooling properties. Avoid spicy, oily, or fried foods and minimize intake of dairy products and sugar, which can aggravate Kapha.

2. Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as it helps in flushing out toxins. Herbal teas like chamomile or coriander can also be soothing and help balance Pitta dosha.

3. Hygiene: Maintain good hygiene, keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent further inflammation. Use a mild, natural soap and avoid harsh chemicals.

4. Topical Remedies: Apply turmeric paste (mix turmeric powder with water or coconut oil) directly on the boils, as turmeric has natural anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties. Place this paste on the boils for about 15-20 minutes and rinse off with lukewarm water.

5. Internal Cleansing: Safeguard against the build-up of toxins by regularly consuming Triphala, an Ayurvedic herbal formula. Take 1/2 teaspoon with warm water before bed to help cleanse your system and boost digestion.

6. Stress Management: Stress can exacerbate imbalances. Practice yoga or meditation daily for calming the mind and restoring balance to your body.

7. Seek Medical Attention: If the boils are persistent, painful, or you notice signs of infection such as pus or fever, consult a healthcare professional promptly as antibiotics or other interventions might be necessary.

These recommendations are derived from Ayurvedic principles and aim to address the root cause of the problem. However, imbalances are unique to each individual, so it’s essential to keep monitoring your condition and seeking personalized advice when needed.

Boils, or furuncles, are often due to bacterial infections in hair follicles and can be painful and bothersome. Let’s explore a few Ayurvedic measures that could help address the issue. The presence of recurring boils often suggests an imbalance in the doshas, particularly an aggravation of the Pitta dosha, which can lead to heat and inflammation in the body. First, enhancing your agni, or digestive fire, could be beneficial in reducing toxins, or ama, which contribute to these issues.

One practical step would be to include neem leaves, which have antibacterial properties, in your daily regimen. You can apply a paste of fresh neem leaves directly onto the boils and leave it on for about 20 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water. Do this twice daily to support healing. Simultaneously, consuming 2-3 neem leaves on an empty stomach can also help to purify the blood.

Dietary changes can also be crucial. Try to avoid excessively spicy, oily, or sour foods that might aggravate Pitta. Instead, favor cooling, balancing foods like sweet fruits, leafy greens, and naturally sweet grains like rice. Ensure good hydration by sipping on warm, boiled water throughout the day, which supports cleansing pathways.

Moreover, practicing moderate, regular physical exercise can aid in maintaining balanced energy flow and preventing blockages in the nadis. However, if the boils persist or begin to spread further, seeking immediate medical evaluation is essential to rule out more serious conditions or infections that may require specific treatment. Remember, these steps should supplement, not replace, any necessary conventional care.

I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

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. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

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. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

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. Prasad Pentakota
ChatGPT said: I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Neha Saini
I am Vaidya Neha Saini and Ayurveda’s not just my work—it’s kind of like my language of healing, a thing I live by, day in and out. I did my BAMS from Shree Krishna Govt Ayurvedic College in Kurukshetra and later finished MD in Ayurveda from Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, Pune (that place had a different kind of energy honestly). With more than five yrs of clinical experience under my belt, I’ve kinda shaped my path around treating chronic issues, long-drawn imbalances and lifestyle disorders that modern life throws at people without warning. My way of working isn’t about chasing symptoms. I try to understand what’s really going on underneath—it’s like the root cause matters more than just quieting the noise. I use classical Ayurvedic principles but I also keep an eye on modern clinical understanding, ‘cause you can’t ignore how medicine’s growing every day, right? Most of my cases come in with problems like skin conditions—psoriasis, eczema, sometimes hormonal stuff like PCOS or thyroid weirdness, joint stiffness, back pains, post-stroke situations, or nervous system setbacks that need slow but steady support. And for all that, I plan treatment around them, not some fixed protocol. Which means a mix of herbs, Panchakarma detox when needed, food tweaks, even small shifts in daily routine… all matching their prakriti and vikriti. I also do online consults 'cause a lot of folks don't always get to travel or access real Ayurveda nearby. I just feel like everyone should have a shot at natural healing, even if it's through a screen. One thing I try hard to never skip: listening. Really listening to people. Sometimes they don’t even know how to say what's wrong, but they feel it—and that matters. For me, trust is the main pillar, and treatment flows from there. Ayurveda for me isn’t a toolkit or a clinic-only thing. It’s like—how you eat, sleep, breathe, connect with seasons or stress. It’s everywhere. And everytime someone walks in confused, tired or just stuck with some health loop, my aim is to sit beside them—not ahead—and figure the way out together. Not fast fixes, but deep, steady change. That's what I show up for every single time.

I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr.V.Yamini Sowbhagya
I am Dr. V. Yamini Sowbhagya, currently working as Assistant Professor at Dr. BRKR Govt Ayurvedic Medical College, Hyderabad—been here for 4 years now, and honestly, still learning every single day. I did both my UG and MS here itself, specialized in Streeroga & Prasuti Tantra (Ayurvedic Gyn & Obs), which kinda gave me this strong base and local connect too... everything I know grew from this place, in a way. I’m super into the preventive side of Ayurveda — like, not just fixing what’s wrong, but stopping it before it starts. I really try to create awareness wherever I can, sometimes even just in daily OP conversations. I genuinely believe half the gynaecological issues we see can be avoided if we just paid attention to simple dinacharya or food patterns or even sleep cycle. But ya, easier said than done — people come in when things go too far. I was selected as a Fellow at the Foundation for Center for Healthcare Entrepreneurship (CfHE) at IITH, Kandi, Sanga Reddy... which kinda pushed me into research + innovation mode. I got to see healthcare from another angle entirely — not just as a doctor but as a thinker. That time challenged me in diff ways, not all comfortable, but really useful. Academically, I love teaching. Like, genuinely. Theory, clinics, discussion — I try to make it real and not just memory games. Students need space to ask stupid questions, and I'm okay with saying "I don’t know" sometimes n checking later. Apart from that, I keep my hands in research stuff too — been involved in quite a few platforms, from college-level to inter-institutional. And ya, I did recieve a bunch of awards n cash prizes over the years, at both state n national level... it’s nice, though I don’t chase them. What matters more is if someone somewhere feels like they got heard or healed. That’s the bit I try not to lose in all this system madness.

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.
