Ayurveda views psoriasis (known as Kitibha or Ekakushta) as a disorder caused by an imbalance of the three doshas, primarily Vata and Kapha, which also affects the Rakta Dhatu (blood tissue). The excessive itching, inflammation, and flare-ups you’re experiencing are classic signs of this imbalance. The connection you’ve noticed between your scalp condition and stomach pain is also significant from an Ayurvedic perspective, as it points to a deeper systemic issue, likely involving Pitta dosha and digestive fire (Agni).
1. Dietary Modifications (Ahar):
Foods to reduce: Psoriasis is often aggravated by foods that are difficult to digest or that increase Pitta and Kapha. This includes spicy, sour, and fermented foods, junk food, and excessive intake of dairy and gluten.
Foods to favor: A diet rich in fresh, wholesome, and easily digestible foods is recommended. This includes leafy greens, bitter vegetables, and fruits that are not too sour. Ghee (clarified butter) and mild spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander are often beneficial.
2. Herbal Remedies (Aushadhi):
Ayurvedic practitioners may prescribe a variety of herbs to cleanse the blood, reduce inflammation, and balance the doshas.
3. Lifestyle and Routine (Vihar):
Stress Management: Stress is a major trigger for psoriasis. Practices like yoga, meditation, and deep breathing exercises (Pranayama) are often recommended to calm the mind and reduce stress levels.
Proper Sleep: Ensuring a regular sleep cycle is crucial for the body’s natural healing and detoxification processes.

HELLO ALEKHYA,
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

HOME REMEDIES

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

Scalp psoriasis can be quite distressing, especially when it intensifies into flare-ups and induces severe itching and inflammation. According to Ayurveda, scalp psoriasis could be related to an imbalance in the Vata and Kapha doshas, which influence the condition of skin tissues (Twak Dhatu) and other symptoms. Here are a few recommendations:
1. Diet and digestion: Since you’re experiencing stomach pain alongside inflammation, it’s crucial to revisit your diet, aiming to balance the agni (digestive fire). You might want to minimize foods that aggravate Vata and Kapha, such as cold, heavy, oily, and spicy foods. Incorporating warm, cooked meals, seasoned with light spices like cumin, ginger, and turmeric, can be helpful. Enjoy herbal teas, especially ginger or fennel, to calm digestion.
2. Herbal support: Certain Ayurvedic herbs like Neem (Azadirachta indica) and Turmeric (Curcuma longa) have an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Applying Neem oil to your scalp may help reduce the flare-ups. Internally, you can consume turmeric powder mixed with warm water or milk to support your immune response. Always ensure these herbal remedies are suitable for your specific condition before usage.
3. Tailored head treatments: Regular gentle massage of the scalp with a mixture of coconut oil and a few drops of tea tree oil or even Brahmi oil could soothe the itching. Keep the oil for around 30 minutes before rinsing, but be gentle to avoid irritation of the scalp.
4. Lifestyle changes: Regular practices such as yoga and meditation may alleviate stress that can otherwise exacerbate your symptoms. Try to maintain a regular sleep schedule to promote overall wellbeing.
If the stomach pain continues or worsens, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional. Pain might be signaling an issue that needs immediate medical attention. Ayurveda’s valuable, but holistic care sometimes requires integrating Western medical insights too for a more complete approach. Always talk to a healthcare provider before starting new treatments to ensure they won’t interfere with any other medicines you might be taking.

Scalp psoriasis and the additional challenges you’re facing point towards an underlying imbalance that may involve your body’s doshic constitution, particularly an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas. Addressing these imbalances may help alleviate symptoms. Though you haven’t tried Ayurveda yet, this system can offer complementary support alongside any conventional treatments.
1. Diet plays a crucial role. Try to avoid spicy, oily, and overly sour foods that can aggravate Pitta. Focus more on including cooling foods like cucumber, cilantro, and fresh aloe vera. Make sure you’re integrating plenty of green leafy vegetables, which help nourish the skin.
2. Turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory properties, might be beneficial. Add a half teaspoon of organic turmeric to a glass of warm milk or water daily. Turmeric can help reduce inflammation internally.
3. For scalp care, massage the scalp with coconut oil infused with neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves at least twice a week. Neem and coconut oil can soothe inflammation and itching, thanks to their antimicrobial properties.
4. To address the gut and digestive issues, emphasize supporting agni, your digestive fire. Consider sipping on warm ginger water throughout the day, which aids digestion and balances Vata. Avoiding long gaps between meals can be helpful too.
5. Incorporate yoga and breathing exercises such as Pranayama into your routine to help manage stress, which can exacerbate psoriasis symptoms. Simple exercises like the alternate nostril breathing can support overall balance.
6. If symptoms persist or worsen, especially the stomach pain, it’s crucial to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner or a healthcare provider directly. They can provide a more comprehensive evaluation, including personalized detoxification plans like Panchakarma, which require professional oversight.
Becoming more aware of lifestyle habits contributing to your dosha imbalances and making small but consistent changes may create a significant positive impact.
