Hello Vignesh I can understand your concern regarding vitiligo but dont worry we are here to help you out😊
Your case (early age, 5 months onset, limited patches, white hair in scalp area) suggests early-stage Vitiligo but dpnt worry it has better prognosis with proper care and TRETAMENT 😊
✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT 1 Markava rasyana 1 tsp morning empty stomach follwed by warm. Water 2 Manjisthadi Ks tab 2-0-2 after food 3 Pigmento 1-0-1 after food
✅EXTERNAL TREATMENT- 👉MORNING- Apply paste of Awalgunja bheeja choorna + Gomutra on the patch, expose it to sunlight for 15-20 mins After some. days blisters will come ( it is normal sign for new skin to come)
👉NIGHT- Apply warm Markava taila on the patch at bed time
❗both step is important for new skin to come❗
✅ DIET AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION
❌ Avoid
Excess sour (curd, pickles, tamarind, citrus in large amounts) Fish + milk combination, cold-drinks, fermented food Late night sleeping
✅ Include Fresh pomegranate, figs, walnuts Green moong dal, drumstick leaves, carrot, beetroot Turmeric + black pepper with warm water daily (small pinch) Wheat + green leafy vegetables regularly
✅ Lifestyle Support
Practice Pranayama (Anulom Vilom, Bhastrika, Kapalbhati 10 min daily) - balances immunity.
Since your vitiligo patches are new (5 months) and limited, Ayurveda can definitely help in controlling the spread and gradually regaining pigmentation.
☑️The key is
Consistency (minimum 6–12 months of treatment) Strict diet control (avoid sour + non-compatible foods) Patience & positivity
👉Many young patients like you see re-pigmentation in small spots within 3–6 months, so stay hopeful.
Wish you a good Helathy Skin😊
