Hello I get how frustrating it is dealing with scalp psoriasis for so long. It’s good that you’ve been doing Panchakarma and taking meds. Ayurvedic concern – Scalp psoriasis for 20 years – Scaling is medium – Just had Panchakarma (2 weeks ago) – Taking Gandhak Rasayan, Kaishor Guggulu, Mahatikta Ghrita – Diet seems to set off flare-ups What’s Happening According to Ayurveda You’ve got: Ekakushtha + Rakta Dushti + Pitta-Kapha acting up Scalp psoriasis isn’t just a skin thing – there’s: – Blood issues – Immune system being too sensitive – Liver feeling hot – Pitta hanging around in your skin too long Panchakarma helped clear out junk. Now, we need to rebuild and get your immune system on track. INTERNAL MEDICATION You’re already on some good stuff. Add these to keep things steady: 1. Mahamanjishthadi Kwath Mix 15 ml with 15 ml warm water. Have it after lunch and dinner. It’s a great blood cleanser for psoriasis. It stops new patches from forming. 2. Arogyavardhini Vati Take 1 tablet twice a day after you eat. – Fixes your liver – Lowers flare-ups –Helps clear out fats and junk 3. Khadirarishta Mix 15 ml with the same amount of water after dinner. It keeps your skin chill and stops itching and scaling. Keep Taking These – Gandhak Rasayan – Kaishor Guggulu – Mahatikta Ghrita These are key for psoriasis. EXTERNAL CARE (Super Important) Mix Neelibhringadi Taila + Karanj Taila (50:50) Gently massage it into your scalp at night. Wash it out in the morning with herbal shampoo. This will: – Shrink patches – Stop hair from falling out – Stop itching DIET PLAN ❌AVOID – Curd – Pickles – Tomato – Brinjal – Foods that are not fresh. – Baked goods – Alcohol – Paneer – Too many sour fruits ✅INCLUDE – Bitter veggies – Lauki, tori, pumpkin – Rice, moong dal – Fresh Buttermilk – Ghee LIFESTYLE CHANGE – Get to bed before 11 pm – No napping during the day – Watch your stress – big time – Light yoga, nothing too intense You can live a normal life despite Psoriasis with Ayurveda. Your Panchakarma set the stage – now stick with the Rasayana plan above. Wishing you calm, healthy skin and a clear mind. Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate
