Melasma, especially chronic cases, can be challenging to manage due to its deep-seated nature, but Ayurveda offers holistic approaches that may help improve and control pigmentation. In Ayurveda, melasma may align with "Vyanga," a skin condition marked by pigmented patches. This can arise due to imbalances in Pitta dosha, which governs heat and metabolism in the body, often aggravated by factors like sun exposure, stress, and lifestyle habits. To manage this condition, I would recommend a comprehensive regimen focusing on internal and external treatments. Internally, incorporating herbs like Manjistha (Rubia cordifolia), Neem (Azadirachta indica), and Amla (Indian gooseberry) can help purify the blood and balance Pitta dosha. Triphala churna, a blend of three fruits, may also aid in detoxifying the body and promoting a clearer complexion. Externally, a gentle application of a paste made from Chandana (sandalwood) and Kumkumadi oil—a traditional oil prepared with saffron and other healing herbs—on the affected areas may reduce pigmentation over time. Additionally, I recommend dietary adjustments to pacify Pitta, such as avoiding spicy, fried, and acidic foods, and instead incorporating cooling, nourishing foods like cucumber, pomegranate, and coconut water. Sun exposure should be minimized, and a natural sunscreen or herbal lotion containing aloe vera and turmeric could protect the skin from further discoloration. Regular relaxation practices like meditation and pranayama can also help reduce stress, which can be a significant trigger for skin issues. Although melasma can be persistent, following this consistent Ayurvedic regimen may support clearer and healthier skin.

Hi Omer, To manage psoriasis and related symptoms like leaky gut, hair fall, and tiredness, Ayurveda suggests balancing the Vata and Pitta doshas. Focus on an anti-inflammatory diet with cooling foods like coconut, ghee, and leafy greens, while avoiding spicy and greasy foods. Herbs like turmeric, neem, and ashwagandha can reduce inflammation and stress. Regular oil massages with sesame or coconut oil, and soothing baths with Epsom salt or neem can help moisturize and calm the skin. Managing stress through yoga or meditation, and improving gut health with probiotics can also support healing. Make sure to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner to personalize this approach based on your unique needs. Have you noticed any specific triggers that worsen your psoriasis, like certain foods or stress?

Psoriasis with symptoms like hair fall, fatigue, and redness is often linked to imbalanced Vata, Kapha, and aggravated Pitta doshas in Ayurveda, often associated with poor digestion and toxin buildup. Management includes detoxification through Panchakarma therapies like Virechana and Raktamokshana, internal herbs such as Neem, Manjistha, and Guduchi for blood purification, and Triphala for gut health. Applying soothing oils like Mahamarichyadi Tailam and Aloe Vera gel can reduce skin irritation. Following a Pitta-pacifying diet, staying hydrated, and managing stress through yoga, meditation, and Pranayama can prevent flare-ups. A personalized Ayurvedic consultation is recommended for a targeted treatment plan.

Namaste, Omer. Psoriasis, combined with hair fall, and fatigue, indicates an imbalance in Pitta and Vata doshas. In Ayurveda, psoriasis is aggravated by poor digestion, toxin accumulation, and stress. Ayurvedic treatment focuses on detoxification, digestion correction, and tissue rejuvenation.  1. Kayakalp Vati – 1 tablets twice a day with lukewarm water after meals.  2. Giloy Ghanvati – 1tablets twice a day with warm water before meals.  3. Arogyavardhini Vati – 1 tablet twice a day with honey after meals.  4. Triphala Churna – 1/2 teaspoon at bedtime with warm water.  5. Aloe Vera Juice – 10 ml mixed with half a glass of water, once a day on an empty stomach.  6 . Kayakalp Taila – apply on affected areas twice daily after bath and before bedtime..  7. Neem Oil and Coconut Oil (in a 1:1 ratio) – apply to affected areas daily. Eat a Pitta-pacifying diet including bitter and astringent foods like neem, karela (bitter gourd), methi (fenugreek), and turmeric. Avoid sour, spicy, fried, and fermented foods, non-vegetarian food, and dairy (except buttermilk). Drink warm water with a pinch of turmeric and a teaspoon of ghee every morning. Consume homemade buttermilk with Haritaki powder for gut healing. Practice Sheetali Pranayama, Sheetkari, and Anulom-Vilom for 15 minutes daily; add neem leaves and a pinch of turmeric to warm bathwater; and take a bath For hair fall, massage the scalp every night before sleep with Patanjali Kesh Kanti Hair Oil; take 1/2 teaspoon of Brahmi powder with Amla juice twice a day; and apply Bhringraj Taila to the scalp and leave overnight before washing with a mild herbal shampoo. Follow-up after 30 days for reassessment
