First, looking into your condition through an Ayurvedic lens, urticaria might be linked to an imbalance of the Vata and Pitta doshas. In Ayurveda, managing chronic urticaria involves a combination of dietary guidelines, lifestyle adjustments, and herbal remedies that soothe these doshas.
Consider incorporating a Pitta-soothing diet. Reduce spicy, hot, oily, fried, and processed foods. Increase intake of cool, hydrating foods like cucumber, coconut water, and aloe vera juice. Seasonal and local fruits that are sweet can be beneficial for calming Pitta. Reducing acidic foods, like citrus fruits and tomatoes, might also help.
Hydrate well but avoid iced drinks. Opt for lukewarm water instead, aiding digestion and maintaining the balance of digestive fire (Agni). Fennel tea or coriander water can be soothing; infuse 1 tsp of these seeds in hot water and sip through the day.
Managing stress is crucial - yoga, meditation or pranayama (breathing exercises) can be quite helpful. A yoga routine that focus on calming the nervous system, like gentle forward bends and twists can be beneficial.
Ayurvedic herbs like Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) and Neem can support cleansing the blood, potentially reducing skin reactions. A practitioner might recommend formulations containing these, ensuring the dosages align to your needs and constitution.
Applying calming substances like aloe vera or sandalwood paste on the skin can provide some relief from existing irritation.
Lastly, ensure your routines support restful sleep, as this is critical in managing stress and inflammation. Avoid screen time before sleep and ensure your sleep environment is calm and cool.
Remember, any herbs or formulations should be taken under the guidance of an Ayurvedic practitioner, as personalized adjustments are key. If symptoms persist or worsen, considering exploring further with a healthcare professional to cover all bases.
HELLO PRANAVI,
Urticaria (or hives) means red or skin coloured raised patches (wheals) that appear suddenly on the skin. They can -appear anywhere on the body -last for a few hours to a day, then disappear and reappear elsewhere - be itchy, warm or even painless -sometimes be associated with swelling around eyes, lips or thraot
In your case -the rashes recur every year for 5 years -they don’t itch much but cause emotional stress -they respond to steroid/antihistamines but come back when stopped- meaning the root cause remains uncorrected
In Ayurveda- known as “Sita-pitta” or “udarda”
Due to faulty digestion, stress, wrong diet, and exposure to incompatible foods/lifestyle, three doshas - especially vata and pitta, and sometimes Kapha-become vitiated -Vata causes dryness, movement of rashes -pitta causes redness,heat and inflammation -kapha may add swelling and dullness -ama (toxic waste) formed due to weak digestion circulated in the blood and irritates skin tissues, producing allergic- type reactions
When this imbalance repeats every year, it becomes chronic sita-pitta- a cyclic pattern where doshas flare up seasonally or with triggers
TREATMENT GOALS -Ayurveda doesn’t only suppress the ras- it aims to restore balance and prevent recurrence by working on multiple levels -Ama nirharana= removing toxins from the body and blood -dosha prashamana= balancing vata, pitta, kapha -agni deepana and amapachana= improving digestion and metabolism -raktaprasadana= purifying the blood and preventing recurrence -manonigrahana= calming stress, anxiety, emotional disturbance -rasayana prayoga= rejuvenation skin and immunity

5) MAHATIKTAKA GHRITA= 1 tsp twice daily on empty stomach for 2 months =deep tissue detox, and nourishment
6) BRAHMI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3 months =helps reduce anxiety -induced flares
EXTERNAL TREATMENT
1) PASTE= sandalwood + turmeric + rose water =apply thin paste on rash area for 15-20 min then wash off with cool water =reduces burning, redness and inflammation
2) HERBAL BATH= neem leaves + triphala decoction -boil in water cool slightly use for bath daily =anti septic , cooling, purifies skin
3) OIL MASSAGE= Karanja taila light massage before bath =balances vata, improves circulation, prevent recurrence
LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIONS -wake up early, follow a routine -bath with lukewarm water not hot -stay calm and avoid stress- stress worsen urticaria -sleep well- 7-8 hours at night -maintain bowel regularity -use cotton clothing, avoid synthetic, tight clothes
AVOID -daytime sleep -overexertion and late nights -sudden exposure to cold water, dust, or allergens -scratching or rubbing the rash

Avoid hot, strenuous yoga during flare ups
DIET -warm,f freshly cooked, easily digestible food -moong dal, red rice, barley, bottle gourd, pumpkin, ridge gourd -cow’s ghee 1 tsp/day- balances pitta, lubricates body -herbal teas= guduchi, turmeric, tulsi, coriander or cumin tea -fresh fruits like pomegranate , apple, pear, papaya -warm water infused with dry ginger or cumin
AVOID -sour, salty, or spicy foods -pickles, tamrind, vinegar -curd, buttermilk , fermented food, cheese, yogurt -cold drinks, ice creams, frozen food -non veg food, seafood, eggs often trigger allergies -bakery items, refined sugar deep fried snacks -combination of milk with sour fruits or salty items
HOME REMEDIES -turmeric + black pepper= 1/2 tsp turmeric + pinch of black pepper In warm water or milk twice daily -Neem leaves=chew 4-5 tender neem leaves in morning -Aloe vera juice = 20 ml on empty stomach daily soothes inflammation -coconut oil with turmeric= apply on rashes for soothing effect
Chronic urticaria is not just a skin issue- it reflects internal imbalance, gut toxins, and mind body stress long term steroid or antihistamine use suppresses symptoms but weakens your immune system With Ayurvedic management, proper diet, and stress control, you can reverse the recurrence cycle naturally Patience and discipline are key- most people notice visible improvement within 4-6 week and long term remission after 3 months

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

Chronic urticaria can indeed be distressing and when it keeps reocurring, understanding the root causes from an Ayurvedic perspective may offer some relief. In Siddha-Ayurveda, urticaria can be related to imbalances in the doshas, particularly Pitta and Vata. Pitta aggravation due to factors like stress, hot and spicy foods, or suppressed emotions can exacerbate this condition.
First, focusing on dietary changes is imperative. To pacify Pitta, incorporate cooling foods like cucumber, coriander, and melons into your daily meals and reduce spicy, sour, and acidic foods. Ensure you drink adequate water to support your body and metabolism.
Second, consider enhancing your agni, or digestive fire, as poor digestion often contributes to skin issues. Incorporate ginger tea into your daily routine before meals to stimulate digestion safely. Avoid cold and heavy foods that may dampen your digestive strength.
Additionally, herbal formulations can offer significant relief. Neem and turmeric both have anti-inflammatory properties. Try a paste of neem and turmeric applied topically on the affected areas, which may help alleviate your symptoms. Alternatively, consuming turmeric milk might support systemic reduction of inflammation. However, always ensure such remedies align with your overall prakriti and other health conditions.
Besides, stress management is vital. Techniques like pranayama and meditation can help balance Vata, calming the mind and reducing flare-ups related to emotional triggers. Practice deep breathing exercises daily to promote relaxation.
Since your condition is longstanding and severe, continued assessment by a healthcare professional is essential. If new symptoms develop or if the condition worsens, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner or a physician to explore further tailored treatments. Prioritize safety by balancing traditional treatments with conventional care, especially when steroids or strong medication are involved.
Follow some simple lifestyle changes and dietary changes and you will see results for your problem.
