Doctors' responses
Your symptoms indicate Vata–Pitta imbalance with Grahani (digestive dysfunction). Loose oily stools, gas, burning in the anus, alternating appetite, and facial rash occur due to aggravated Pitta along with disturbed Vata affecting digestion (Agni). Dadimashtaka churna helps in digestion and stool formation, which is why your motion improved. However, Vata still remains aggravated, causing gas, dryness, and pain during defecation. Kutajghan Vati – 2 tablet twice daily after meals Triphala 0-0-2 at night Avipattikar Churna – 5 g at 2 times after food Takra (buttermilk) with roasted cumin after lunch Put castor oil at night on umbalical take abhyaaristh 10 ml after food 2 times with water Avoid spicy, oily, fermented foods and excessive tea/coffee Prefer warm, light, easily digestible food Include ghee and buttermilk in diet Maintain regular meal timing

–Your loose motion improved because the medicine reduced your Pitta, but your Vata is still high. That’s why you feel cold, have dry skin, gas, and some pain while passing stools. The red rash shows Pitta is not fully balanced yet. We need to support Vata with warm, moist foods and gentle care, while continuing to manage Pitta, so both doshas get balanced. —Treatment: 1)Triphala Churna – 3 g at night with warm water (for bowel regulation, Vata balance) 2)Dadimashtaka Churna – 1 g twice daily after meals with warm water (for acidity & Pitta) 3)Ashwagandha Churna – 3 g at night with warm milk (for Vata, dryness, coldness) ----Diet & Lifestyle: Warm, cooked, slightly oily foods (rice, dal, khichdi, cooked veggies) Avoid cold, raw, dry foods; maintain regular meals Daily warm oil massage (Abhyanga) for dryness Keep warm; gentle activity only —Follow-up: 2 weeks
