Kachchu - #3434
Recently, I’ve been trying to figure out how kachchu is used in Ayurveda, especially for skin-related issues. My grandmother always mentioned kachchu in her remedies for itching and rashes, but I never paid attention back then. Now, I’m dealing with some persistent itching on my arms and legs, and it’s driving me crazy. I’ve tried regular creams and ointments, but nothing works for long. I heard kachchu can help with these kinds of skin irritations, but I don’t know where to find it or how to use it properly. Do you apply it directly, or is it mixed with something like oil or water? Also, is kachchu safe to use for sensitive skin, or could it make the problem worse? My skin is already pretty dry, so I don’t want to risk anything harsh. Another thing I’m curious about is whether kachchu works for other issues, like scalp itching or dandruff. I get a lot of dryness on my scalp during the winter, and I wonder if kachchu could help with that too. Are there any specific precautions or dosages I should be aware of? I don’t want to overdo it or use it the wrong way. If anyone has experience with kachchu, I’d love to know how it worked for you. How long does it usually take to see results, and are there any side effects to watch out for? Can it be combined with other Ayurvedic remedies, or should it be used on its own?
