Hello! Thanks for picking a kind, natural way to help your son. Not wanting to use steroids is totally understandable, especially for eczema that’s been around for a while in kids.
Ayurveda is all about healing skin from the inside out, not just hiding the symptoms.
YOUR CONCERN
Problem: Really bad eczema. Where: Dry, itchy scalp, dry neck, dry face. How long: Over 6 months. How bad: Super uncomfortable all the time. Allergies: Yep, one or two you know about. What you’re doing now: Using gentle products and pure glycerin soap. What you want: A natural/Ayurvedic approach, no steroids.
AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT
In Ayurveda, this kind of problem is called Vicharchika or Charmadala.
What’s causing it:
* Too much Pitta and Kapha, which leads to inflammation, itching, and redness. * Issues with Rakta dhatu (a body tissue) that make chronic eczema more likely. * Dryness from Vata getting out of whack. * Digestion and gut problems (super common in kids with allergies).
Eczema isn’t just a skin thing; it shows there’s an issue with the immune system and gut inside.
WHAT WE’RE AIMING FOR
* Safely calm the itching and inflammation. * Make the skin more hydrated and stronger. * Naturally boost immunity. * Lessen allergy problems. * Stop it from coming back later.
INTERNAL CARE
1. GUT & IMMUNITY (Super Important)
PROBIOTICS: * Lactobacillus + Bifidobacterium strains. * Once a day. * Pick one that’s safe for kids and doesn’t have sugar. * Probiotics help eczema by fixing the connection between the gut and skin.*
VITAMINS AND NUTRIENTS
VITAMIN D: * Really important for eczema and immunity. * Give the dose your pediatrician suggests (kids often don’t have enough).
OMEGA-3 (Plant-based is better): * Flaxseed oil or algae-based DHA. * Helps with inflammation and itching.
ZINC (Small amount): * Helps skin heal and boosts immunity. * Don’t use too much.
AYURVEDIC HERBS (SAFE FOR KIDS)
1. GUDUCHI (Giloy): * Boosts immunity. * Lowers allergic reactions. * Can get it as a syrup or tablet for kids.
2. KHADIRARISTHA 10ML (Small amount): * Great for eczema and itching. * Cleans the blood. * Only use versions made for kids.
3. MANJISTHADI KS TAB 1-0-1 * Helps with healing chronic skin problems. * Really good for eczema that’s been around a long time.
Always use the right dose for your child’s age.
EXTERNAL CARE (Very Important)
Daily Moisturizing (2–3 times a day):
* Virgin coconut oil * OR * Shatadhauta Ghrita * Put it on right after a bath when skin is a little damp.
Scalp Care:
* Coconut oil + a few drops of castor oil. * Gently massage twice a week. * Don’t use special shampoos for now.
DIET PLAN (Super Important for Controlling Eczema)
INCLUDE
* Warm, freshly cooked food. * Rice, moong dal. * Ghee (a tiny bit). * Stewed fruits. * Plenty of water.
AVOID (If they cause allergies or problems):
* Packaged foods. * Too much dairy. * Refined sugar. * Food coloring. * Baked goods. * Figure out which foods cause problems and stay away from them (this is really key).
BATHING TIPS
* Only use lukewarm water. * Short baths. * Don’t use scrubbers. * Only use soap where you really need it.
You’re doing the right thing by trying to heal instead of just covering up. Kids’ eczema gets a lot better when you fix their gut, give them good food, and use gentle herbs.
Hope your son gets comfy, heals up, and has healthy skin soon!
Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

HELLO,
Eczema- is called vicharchika in Ayurveda It’s a type of kushta (skin disorder) that mainly involves vata and Kapha doshas, sometimes also pitta when there’s redness, burning, or oozing
AYURVEDIC VIEW -VATA DOSHA causes dryness, scaling, roughness, and cracks -KAPHA DOSHA causes thickening, itching, and stickiness -PITTA DOSHA causes redness , burning, and oozing
When these doshas get disturbed by wrong diet, stress, lack of sleep, or poor digestion, they mix with the blood and settle in the skin That leads to the symptoms your grandson experiences - dry, itching, inflamed patches on arms, neck and back
TREATMENT GOALS -remove toxins from the body -purify blood -balance the doshas -heal the skin and strengthen immunity -improve digestion and metabolism
INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances all doshas -Bhramari= calms the mind and reduces itching related to stress -Sheetali/sheetkari= cooling, helps pitta related burning or redness
