For chronic fungal infections, hair loss, and stomach burning, Ayurveda focuses on balancing the doshas, particularly Pitta (heat) and Vata (dryness). Here's a brief approach:
For Fungal Infection:
Herbs: Use antifungal herbs like Neem, Turmeric, Giloy, and Tulsi to purify the blood and support immunity.
Topical Applications: Apply Neem oil or Aloe Vera to the affected area to soothe inflammation and reduce infection.
For Hair Loss:
Herbs: Bhringraj, Amla, Ashwagandha, and Brahmi can help restore hair health by nourishing the scalp and improving circulation.
Scalp Massage: Use sesame oil for regular oiling of the scalp to promote hair growth.
For Stomach Burning:
Diet: Avoid acidic, heavy, and greasy foods. Include cooling foods like coconut, cucumber, and ghee.
Herbs: Amla (Indian Gooseberry), Licorice, and Mint can help cool the stomach and balance Pitta.
Triphala: Can aid digestion and soothe the stomach.
Detoxification: Consider a gentle Ayurvedic detox with Virechana (purgation) to clear toxins and balance digestive fire.
Always consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized treatment and dosage.

Fungal infections can be quite stubborn, especially when they linger for long like yours. It's not uncommon for them to take a while to clear up on the feet—warm, moist environment makes it a bit of paradise for fungi, really. Anyway, dealing with them requires a holistic approach in Ayurveda. Let's dive in.
Your foot infection, hair loss, and the burning sensation in your stomach might all be connected to a Pitta imbalance. In Ayurveda, Pitta is related to fire and digestion, when it goes out of balance, it can lead to issues like inflammation and heat.
For the itchiness and foot infection, first consider using a paste of neem and turmeric, they're both excellent antifungal agents. Just mix a bit of neem powder with turmeric and water, apply the paste on the affected area daily. Tricky part is remember to keep your feet dry and clean, change your socks frequently.
Hair loss is being tricky too, right? It's often due to excess heat in the body—could try cooling herbs like amla and bhringraj. You can make a hair oil with such herbs, apply it to your scalp and gently massage before showering.
Now about your midnight burnings, which sounds uncomfortable! Try to introduce cooling, soothing foods to your diet, like aloe vera juice or coconut water. Avoid super sour, salty, and spicy foods that aggravate Pitta. Stick with fresh fruits, salads, and steamed vegetables.
It might be helpful to have Trikatu with warm water before meals too, it balances digestion and strengthens Agni without creating more heat.
These suggestions, all practical and easy, should help but remember, Ayurveda is personalized, so if possible, see an Ayurvedic practitioner who can tailor everyhting for you. Also, see that the fungal part isn't causing deeper issues, getting checked by a physician to make sure there’s no underlying condition that's seriously messing up your immune system could be wise. Hope this helps!
