Doctors' responses

Most of your symptoms shows --This is Nirama Pitta with Vata involvement, not Sama Pitta. -Strong hunger and loose non-sticky stools indicate aggravated Pitta with sharp digestion. -Bloating shows Vata in the intestines. Pungent herbs reduce gas but worsen Pitta. Bitter/astringent reduce Pitta but temporarily slow digestion. —Rx- 1) Guduchi Satva – 500 mg Twice daily after food with Luke warm water 2)Avipattikar Churna – 3 gm At bedtime with lukewarm water 3)Shankha Vati – 1 tab Twice daily after food (for bloating) 4)-----If acne prominent: Mahamanjishthadi Kwath – 15 ml + 15 ml water Twice daily before food ----Diet Advice:- Rice + moong dal Small quantity ghee Coriander + fennel water Eat every 3–4 hrs not too heavy —Apathya: Chili, fried food Fermented food Sour curd Excess garlic/onion —Follow-up: 15 days

Hi… For your current condition it is more over nirama pitta because you said non sticky stool…but increase hunger means that your pitta is aggrevated with kapha anubandh that will cause sticky stool as ama formation and reducing agni… So basically you need to remove kapha from pittashya and then work on pitta… For this You can take Shunthi churna -1tsp-BD With warm water only…when you feel that your stool is non sticky and hunger is normal but your acne outburst then will go for pittaj chikitsa So for this start taking Triphala churna+ avipattkar churna at night 1 tsp only

Sama Pitta vs. Nirama Pitta Sama Pitta (pitta mixed with ama/toxins) Stool: sticky, foul-smelling, sometimes mucus-laden. Appetite: reduced or irregular. Acne/skin issues: often aggravated. Response to bitter/astringent medicines: stool improves, acne reduces, but appetite drops → this matches your experience. Nirama Pitta (pure aggravated pitta, without ama) Stool: loose, non-sticky, burning sensation possible. Appetite: strong, frequent hunger. Acne: reddish, inflamed. Response to pungent medicines: bloating reduces, but pitta symptoms (acne, hunger, loose stool) worsen → again, this matches your description. Stabilize digestion (Agni) Use mild deepana-pachana herbs: Trikatu churna (very small dose, 1–2 pinches with warm water before meals). Avoid overuse of pungent medicines, since they aggravate pitta in your case. Clear Ama gently Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia): 500 mg capsule or 1–2 tsp decoction daily with warm water. Bilva churna: 1–2 g with warm water after meals if stool is loose. Balance Pitta Avipattikar churna: 1–2 g with warm water at bedtime if acidity/burning is present. Saraswatarishta or Kamadudha rasa (under supervision) for acne and pitta calming. Dietary Do’s Eat at regular times; avoid skipping meals. Favor cooling, light foods: rice, moong dal, bottle gourd, pomegranate, coriander water. Avoid excess pungent, sour, salty foods. Don’ts No irregular eating, late-night meals, or heavy fried/oily foods. Limit chili, pickles, alcohol, and fermented foods.
